Maybe but would imagine we replace him.

At least we gave it a dig but we are rubbish with ball in hand. I'm sure our attack will be much better with some new forwards and outside backs.

Sneyd has been garbage for weeks and Kelly needs a big pre season and to shed some serious weight

Carlos excellent again tonight.

He goes under the radar a bit but he is consistently excellent I agree.
Hopefully he'll go well next year with a more threatening second row.

Not sure about Paea. Manu walked round at the beginning but looked like he was struggling.

I thought he was just milking it

He's had an excellent second half of the season IMO. Looking forward to seeing him and Fonua back together.

Much improved effort but the lack of skill is easy to see and Saints would have upped their game if it meant something to them.

Still could have been worse, the fans would have been in meltdown with another poor effort. But there is a lot to put right this Winter and new signings won't fix everything.

Not really been fit all year in all probability. Still, replacing a struggling Sika and ageing Minichiello with Ma'u and Jones certainly looks like a trade up.

no point now as Pearson has told us Radford is here to stay.
The big boppers coming in next season should give is some go forward next season but we really need some creativity into this team.
Tonight had everything that is poor at the club.Handling errors,poor passing,indiscipline giving away stupid penalties,poor last kick options and clueless in the opposition 20.
For me the only bright light is that Radford pulled Houghton off in the first half and hopefully realises his distribution and speed of pass at dummy half is too slow.A bit late but maybe now he has backing of Pearson he has the confidence to start dropping some of the non performing senior players.
Lets hope this lad from Widnes gets a chance.
In my opinion we still need a big front row and a full back who can actually pass a ball

Due to injury.
