Sounds good. Probably more enjoyable than watching multiple episodes of Cbeebies Bing and then bathing a tired 2 y/o.

I was thinking the same thing Tad.
Also thought Matautia should have got 10 as most have done all season even though you can`t beat a bit of biff.

It was something and nothing really. We really should be “play on” in a big game like this without silly sin-binnings.

I don’t like the way Cats play particularly, or the coach or some of the players… but still want them to win tonight for the wider good of the game.

First contact was on the chest Tad. He slid up and made contact with his head which made it a penalty but never a penalty try or sin bin for me.

Game on now tho. Walmsley will be on again soon.

I’d have loved it to be a penalty try but even I couldn’t have given that one.

Come on Les Dracs

Who else from Saints was anywhere near to stop that try?

For me, Makinson made a legitimate tackle that would have meant that Yaha would have gone into touch, but he finished it off with a head shot. Penalty is the right call.

Exactly. If first contact was on his head then its slightly different but Makinson made contact on the chest.

People say RL is awful these days but this is fantastic. Anyones.

Walmsleys return has lifted Saints but its anyones.
