Erm Saints supporters will say Graham and Leeds supporters will say Peacock wont they.

Lousy new signature, when did that happen.

Are you expecting Long, Wellens and Roby to be back next week?

Wellens is a definite I think. He has a 'chronic knee problem' which requires an operation, which they hope to delay until later in the season I think.

Roby has several knocks but should be able to play, Long I would say is more doubtful but given his importance could well play. I certainly hope so anyway as Wellens' and Long's deputies tonight in Lomax and Wheeler both got knocks.

Think I have only posted on here 2 or 3 times in 4 years. There is a big game next week, and I wanted to know how you went tonight. That's all, but all I found was pedantic posts about our players.

We went OK thanks.

We showed some more fluency in attack but we were a bit sloppy in our handling.

We did well in the first half to build a lead in the face of a tough wind.

We're still not "there" yet and will need a better performance to put you lot away next week but each passing week we're getting closer. Had more of a full team out tonight than last week as well (though No Bailey).

Now, you can carry on chomping on the bait that has been laid for you.

Both looked handy going forward. As Phil Clarke might opine, a pity Lomax had the one malfunction at the back and unlucky not to cross up the other end. Got in there to work out of dummy half as well (although I've only half watched it properly at the moment.) Wheeler's try was real quality though I've been disappointed with Wakey so far although somewhat understandable in the circumstances.

Good to see another couple rolling off the production line for somewhere in Super League.

Graham and Peacock are both awesome prop forwards. I think the stats would probably show they are the top 2 metre makers in the SL and probably top 2 in average metre per carry as well.

An essential element of the prop forwards armoury should be the ability, when required, to 'mix it'. Graham is a gobs***e, Peacock may not be the best, but he'll get stuck in. There, that's settled then
