Thompson? Very good but given a lesson by Cooper tonight. Saints need walmsley back and quick.

No we don't, Saints will take whatever you throw at us and just go up a gear when it matters, thats why we have won 21 games and wire have lost 4x as many games.

You didn't really go up a gear tonight. BMM lamped Thompson and gave you the game on the hooter.

Brainless play by wire in last 90 seconds

There were 2 games that a draw would have been a good result.
Poor execution of DG when a kick to the touch and a point would have kept us 3rd regardless.

However the performance was more important than the result.

All Widnes fans are well happy with what Saints did to you tonight.

Both of them.

You have to go for the win though, sure a draw would be better than a 2 point loss but better technique and execution we are a point up with the ball back, saints won't get another chance at us. Its shocking that they don't just give themselves more time by dropping back a bit further. The attempts have been pathetic recently, not just tonight. It's a far cry from the sandow drop goal against Salford in 2016, such a shame that he couldn't sort himself out, then again if he wasn't at least part liability he wouldn't have been here in the first place.
I want to see us better at getting over the line, the lack of confidence in scoring tries is a bit of a concern.

It was only a small gear that was needed to reply with 14 unanswered points. For me Steve Price bottled it kept going for the 2 point penalties, he looked scared stiff towards the end.

I thought that the Saints supporters were both knowledgeable and gracious tonight. I hope that they win the double, its much deserved. They are by far the best supporters in SL. Landlord, another double whiskey over here..
