Based on what? That was arguably Saints 2nd worst performance of the season, on the back of another tough game at Wigan. We were 10 points clear and don't need to win again this season in the league. We also have Alex Walmsley about to come back as fresh as a daisy. But we were flat out?
An alternative suggestion is that Wire were massively up for the game and still fell short. Price's reaction when you scored told you how much the game meant. You made 2 breaks all game. It could be argued we played the game with 12 men too as Barba was clearly woefully unfit and wasn't linking into the line, leaving everything to Lomax.
I just don't get where the smug arrogance comes from. Sure, you are a decent side and could win the double if things went your way, but to be so dismissive of a side that could be 12 points clear and beat you twice this season is just odd.
dont be soft the game meant as much to both teams and to both coaches...our coach said we should have won that game three times over and yet he wasn't too dissapointed...your coach was clearly miffed by having to get a cheap penalty to win the game... and criticised our style of play ...which to be fair was for our ordinary pack the worst in ten years to run all over yours.... suck it up... hes a proper mard booty Holbrook....
Also as a wire fan it irks me having to read and hear about the next coming of Jesus Christ our lord in Danny Richardson this lad created nothing in 80 minutes of rugby league nothing jack poop ...his kicks were Tyrone Roberts-esque.. his running game was Kevin Brown-esque
yet he scored a kick with Zero pressure.......after the hooter...
Yes Zero pressure... kick it and you win and win the league leaders shield... miss it ... and you draw and still win the league leaders shield.
we have the two worst half backs at warrington in a generation they cant pass cant kick cant run.... and you absolutely battered us out of sight by 2 points.....
I'd be worried tha Barba has become Chris Sandow and is primarily thinking of home but also thinking of playing in the two big finals and thinking he just has to turn up and win them....and go home a super hero...
he was garbage yesterday Tom Lineham was faced with a three on one with Ben barba with the ball in his hand and Lineham dealt with it easily....
it was a low quality game all round but we arent the runaway league leaders and the best saints side in a century so I'm not as worried as a saints fan should be....
good luck in the semi final.....catalan are bigger stronger and have better half backs than us....
