Wendall

I woudn't say awful, not great but he's somehow got more medals than 90% of SL players so he can't be a truely terrible player. I know your thoughts on Hodgson adding a lot more than Richie to Wire and I agree.

Bet Anderson wishes he had stayed at Saints now!

Leeds last night were way up there with Eastmond, Wellens and Graham in the whining stakes.

Leeds have had a poor year but they are still Yorkshire's best team. Next year will be interesting to see if their decline continues, if so then I can't see further than Wigan, Saints and Wire for top 3 again.

One of the top 5 hookers I have seen in SL. RIP and a sad loss.

One positive was that Macnamara said that he would not risk anyone who wasn't fit. I think taking Eastmond on tour would be a massive gamble and not worth it, he seems to be getting injured every game and he needs a rest.

I think your right (for once). Hudds have some good talent and their best players (apart from Hodgson) are all English. Hodgson will make Wire a better side, not only for his kicking but he will offer Wire much more in attack than Mathers.

Saints have dominated 2nd half to be fair they have had too much class. Hudds have battled hard and can be proud of their efforts in the play offs. I only hope Wigan win tmro, can't face another Leeds v Saints final.....

The pressure has told. Think Saints may romp it now. 30-22 with under 20 to go.

Wellens had done it again, massive play that. Try to Saints and kick 24-22.

T-R-Y Hudds take the lead!

Ho many times has JD said 'poooeer'?

Not really its a close one to call, Saints have had the early pressure but Hudds have come back strong. 18-16 to Saints at HT. Could go either way, depends on the first ten mins, I feel if we have a defensive effort then it could be so close to call, either that or Saints may run riot.

Wellens in for a great try, stretched out with the line beggin! Saints to do what they do best and get in before HT! Kick converted by Foster 18-12 to Skints.

Blatant knock on missed by ref as Hudds get away with it!! Whats going on, the crowd are going mad!

Nearly 30 mins as it was a late kick off due to the crowd getting in.

Great try out wide by Lawrence for Hudds! Wellens in no mans land!! Cries of the refs a W***** call out as the kick goes through from the Wire bound Brett Hodgson, 12-12.

12-6 The crys of forward echo from the terraces every time Hudds get the ball out!

Saints are bossing it doing what the Giants did last week! But Lunts in 12-4 to Saints now, the silence is deafening! Where are all the Hudds fans who trashed the pubs in Wire last week I ask?

Some funny quotes from the Welsh Wizard at Knowsley Rd! http://twitter.com/Jiff10 Just arrived at St Helens car park stood in dog ######! Sat on gantry in Knowsley Rd above 5,000 fans.pie and pints farts waffting up!!!

Hardly! I have been going since the mid eighties mate, when the inter city postmen were in full force!

Try aincient and loyal! Something not many Wigan lads can preach from the mid nineties......

Am praying that Hudds can do it, but you know them jammy plazzi scousers will do it in the final minutes!

Penny wasn't quite the player Smith wanted which is a shame because he is the most exciting winger in the country, if not the most complete winger.
