Massive ask to get the points. Saints will be looking to bounce back. No CC to go for. Won't be a disaster if we get beat but a blowout would. Saints still 3/10 and we are 5/2 . A win would be great though. COYH

Absolute nonsense

Saints are busted after last week we had a week off

Mautatia playing centre, Lomax half fit at best, a youngster at 6

We won't do anything while our fans have this defensive attitude whys it always next season?

We should of won tonight one of the strongest teams we've had all season did nothing while they was down to 12

Just looked massively disjointed for the first 30 minutes of the 2nd half, and guilty of overplaying again at times even though we'd not earned the right through hard work. Had a decent chance to beat them tonight so it's a very disappointing loss.
Need to be much better against Wigan.

I'd prefer to see Litten given a shot, even if it is throwing him in at the deep end. But if he's not up to it the yes, Shaul at 1.

Have to say i am starting to agree with you about Connor not producing against the better teams
together with Reynolds he was poor
Ball handling is all well and good but its not enough to compensate for his lack of pace,and support play plus terrible defence
If we are going to keep him then he has to move into the halves and play Shaul at full back until Litten is ready. Signing an attacking full back like French or Field is a priority for next season

Thankfully again people are starting to realise what I've been saying for a long time Houghton isn't close to a good hooker

Funny I said for ages Connor isn't a top full back and people eventually noticed that aswell

Re: Saints away : Fri May 13, 2022 9:10 pm  

Thought we had a chance second half, but some of our lads haven’t been good enough in defence(or attack) specially out wide. Griff doesn’t look fit and Wynne and Shaul have been run ragged by Lomax and Hurrell. As for our 6, what can you say,…..our kicking isn’t great either. Losing Fash meant one forward short on interchange and you need them against a team like Saints, who are a super team and did the business on us. Not too despondent about tonight. Losing to Saints away 24-10 is not the end of World.

Yep if we played toulouse or Sheffield for 28 games Connor would be a superstar

But we don't.... we are judged against top sides aswell

What is disappointing is it was a stupid kick by Connor trying for a 40/20 with 2 minutes to go that started the rot.
Then the usual penalty on the first tackle and saints are in our 20 and score a try with 1 minute to go before half time.
Its game management and we dont have any
