Quote: rover49 "A couple of posters on the Saints site put it down to
1. the fact that Saints players were not bothered about winning
2. the structure of SL was to blame
No mention of us beating then soundly, only that if Saints had really wanted to they would have hammered us.'"
You beat us soundly.
And it's not about not being bothered, Saints fans are concerned that a handful of players are not turning up with the right attitude and are not fully committed. In the last 11 games we've won 5, lost 6. In those defeats we've been turned over far too easily. They won't nail biting last minute defeats, they were tonkings.
You didn't win cos of the structure of SL. We were just saying that the standard overall in SL is not as strong as say 10 years ago. Saints, Wigan, Leeds...everyone.
Well done on thumping us. Good luck for the rest of the season.
