That's true - in Lomax's case he can't even defend them from two yards out with a 17 stone prop beating him to it.

I don't think his postining on kicks in goal is the greatest to be honest.

Warrington only had one move and that was the kick. Then again Saints have never been able to defend from kicks in all the years I've been watching them.

If that's the case your players are poor readers of the game as it worked 4 times. Porr effort.

Wire when pressured are rather poor we didn't pressure them enough early on. A fit Roby would have made the difference. However it could have been worse and it may be their year first time since 1954 let them have it. Oh they have won about five challenge cups since 1954 big club my booty.

Blimey if you are that upset, we'll give you the 2 points.

It's always your year...etc

Bad loser its just a game and the best team won minus atkins myler and hodgson. Think they cancel out you missing roby.

I thought Hohaia was pretty good tonight, Howarth killed all the momentum when he came on in that last 20

From a neutral point of view, the fact that (probably) your best forward played only 30/80 minutes tonight was mystifying. Bringing him back on with 8 minutes to go - by which time the game was lost, was even more bizarre.

His positioning has been suspect for a few games lately and not just from kicks.

Are you a touch not with it ? Lomax was the best rugby player on that pitch by a mile.

And the winner of the "Red tainted spectacle wearing deluded fan" goes to... He was what? Not a chance. Manu was better than him for your lot then you've got that ageing one trick wonder Mickey Higham, Ratchford and not forgetting your very own reject Briers.

Not red tainted at all. I have watched Wire come from a very very poor team into a respectable one. However I still think Lomax was the only class act on that pitch tonight. Like I have said I am pleased that you have almost become a big club. Saints Leeds Wigan in any order will always be the cream just ask the Bulls.
