That's fair enough but Saints have faced a lot of highly motivated and eager opposition in recent times and not made those sorts of errors. In fact our success has been based on calmness in those situations which went missing both last week vs Catalans and this week vs Wire. As I said though - Wire were great and fair play to them.

Fair play to Wire - very good performance and a cracking result. Well done. Haven't watched it back but thought we were really poor with some basic uncharacteristic errors. Our game relies on us being pretty error free but the last couple of weeks we've falled way short in that regard and when we do it becomes very difficult for us given lack of pace across the backs and halves.

Is it just me who thinks Latrelle is a waster?

Not sure why any of that excuses his approach on live TV, particularly if he's so keen on setting an example to young Aboriginal kids as you say. -
Vegas Again/2025 and WCC
FearTheVee replied to Sports Prophet's topic in The General Rugby League Forum
When I read his post I read him saying that the majority (which I take as more than half) would get walloped "by the four teams on show" - namely Roosters, Broncos, Souths and Manly. Four of the biggest clubs in the NRL. There is nothing remotely outlandish about that claim IMO. Most of the bottom half of SL get walloped by the top half of SL let alone some of the biggest clubs in the NRL. -

Nobody, including the person you quoted, said every SL side would get walloped by every NRL side. That is your straw man. -
Vegas Again/2025 and WCC
FearTheVee replied to Sports Prophet's topic in The General Rugby League Forum
We all know where we stand. The best SL teams would be competitive, below the top two or three it would be embarrassing. Pretending that our best side winning the WCC changes that is daft. -
Great event to be at, enjoyed it. No question that Wigan were hanging in and got the benefit of the calls (Wardle try wasn’t great but the ball steal one was a real shocker) but they were resilient and defended brilliantly well. But Penrith had the benefit of some marginal calls last year (Hopoate disallowed forward pass try being one) when the game was played with their ref under their rules. So suck it up - great NRL sides have come to the UK and taken the ref out of the game, Penrith couldn’t.
-
I turned off after about 60 seconds when they talked about Marshall and Miski being “two big bodies” in the Wigan back three - they’ve obviously never seen Wigan play. This stuff is precisely why I always want the NRL side to lose even when it’s Wigan opposing them. Cant wait for the game - will be there. I will stop short of actively supporting Wigan but I certainly won’t be supporting Penrith!

Derek Beaumont isn't around to sign them off.

Sounds like Leigh lost their opener . . . .
-
The games weren’t the greatest but I must have missed the period in time when torrential downpours in the first game of the season was a recipe for brilliant rugby. The biggest culprits for ruining a game that I watched were the players of Hull FC not the ref or the rules.

What reactionary nonsense.

You could see in Tony Smith’s face before ko he knew he had a right rabble on his hands. Zero confidence -
