Tonight’s match : Fri Apr 30, 2021 6:46 am  

I’m a big Saints fan after supporting Leigh of course
So tonight I don’t mind us getting beat
Do hope we do win or at least put in a good performance
Head says 60 points on us
Heart says we manage a win after a tight game
What’s your take on tonight’s match

It depends how deep saints want to go IMO, there are some relatively quick fixes to be made if JD knows how to fix them, optimistic 12- 28

Saint play the best rugby always have
Under P Rowley we came close
If we have a good account of ourselves I’ll be happy
If we beat them that’s fab and they’ll still win the league

You've got a chance. We've been awful in attack in the first half and you're doing okay.

Who is this referee though? Absolutely ruined the game. We've conceded about 947 penalties and a set restart every other tackle it seems. I wouldn't mind but I've genuinely no idea what most of them are even for. Some really, really weird calls.

Well played Leigh. A very brave performance showing that the players do have the capacity to deal with the intensity at this level. Hopefully, this can be sustained and we can pick up a few wins and my criticism can be seen as unfounded. Good to see that we have made up 10 in points difference on Wakefield.

They were messing about the ruck nearly every tackle at end of the first half and were clearly rattled - hence the sin bin. We then lost the match in the first 5 mins. of the second half against 12 men. But what a gutsy display, especially by James Bell - what a tackler!!

Saints seemed to get piggy backed out of their half all second half. Love a sky angle on that pass on the disallowed try, hope Bentley is ok and proud of that effort and cannot wait to show that v Wigan
