Great game and a fantastic atmosphere last night but i still can’t see Saints winning the GF. Our defence is like a stonewall but our discipline is shocking and we seem to have a real problem finishing sides off. A mate told me last night leaving the ground that Saints have scored six points or less nineteen times this season either in the 1st or 2nd half or both. Therein lies our Achilles heel, as we have little idea on how to create anything near the opponents line and finish off teams, along with a dreadful kicking game. Welsby has some real big howlers in him but he has also moments of class, like the try saving tackle on Dufty.

Knowles hasn’t done anything for years, im amazed how some Saints fans rate him so much. I was told by a Saints supporter who stands behind me that “i don’t see what he doesn’t do ”. I also think Lees is overrated, he’ll tackle but when the club is down on props who can make the hard yards Lees is not that type of player. Mata’utia had a great game but i don’t think he is the answer for Saints, in moving him into the front row.

My granddaughter was giggling at the behaviour of some of the fans. That is grown men plastered, going berserk, with faces as red as a gammon, because Saints didn’t get a decision go their way. I asked her after the game what she thought of their behaviour and her reply was “silly Billy’s”. Nothing will be done about the pish head’s because it’s money for clubs. I don’t class every supporter who enjoys a few pints before or during a game as being an irritant. It’s just that there are some who are embarrassing, perhaps they don’t realise that they become vulgar after a glass of red wine.

13,428 at Saints on Friday night, it was a fantastic atmosphere. The crowd was up 316 on the 13,112 that turned up to watch the Toulouse match last season.

What a fantastic match with an electric atmosphere. Beaumont’s Leopards are working because my little Staffordshire granddaughter travelled up on the night to watch her two favourite teams. Leigh are her 2nd team because she loves leopards, two pts for Mr B. The atmosphere was deafening at times, my ears were buzzing. Leigh looked the more dangerous of the two sides when they moved the ball wide. I thought they might’ve targeted Davies & Bennison more often, especially Davies. Thankfully our defence was rock solid for most of the night. Roby had a brilliant game, his best of the season, because most of the year he has been average at best. My Staffs Granddaughter give the night a 10/10, she did ask why do people drink so much and miss a lot of the best bits!!!!.

Yes i have evidence, i heard it in a pub.

If he is injured he’ll blend in well at Saints. I don’t think Wellens has got a clue how long a player will be out injured for, but i don’t think Saints medical staff have got a clue either. Woolf used to be the same as well.

Huzzah Huzzah Huzzah.

He heard it in the pub.

I agree with you Leef the Saints discipline is shocking and it annoys me, but i don’t think we are the least disciplined. Including cup games we have had two players sent off, eight yellow cards(i think), and we have had twelve players suspended. I don’t know about six-agains but i can see Saints walking that one easily.

I love the colours of the seating in the new stand.

A new 1yr deal for Mata’utia at Saints with another year’s option in someone’s favour. I must’ve missed if it was in his favour or the clubs?.

4,544 at Wakey yesterday which is up by 392 on last years attendance. Well played Wakey .

I haven’t seen him play with a smile on his face. All i see is someone gasping for air as he’s lying on the grass as the game continues.

That’ll be Norman, i can’t see him playing against Leigh on Friday.

Saints are nothing special, we need a couple of new signings in the back line. A new centre & winger would be great but i can’t see that happening. Hurrell limping off as well, Dr Nick Riviera working wonders at Saints again.

6,668 at Cas last night which i think is up by 1,443 on one of the crazy loopy fixtures we had last season.

The Saints gate against was up 1,400 on last years crowd.

I don’t think Saints have a committee anymore Tippy.

Great song, great band.

Did Watson mention the six agains.

11,258 at Saints tonight which wasn’t bad with the awful weather we had.

Cracking win for Cas, i thought Wakey would win easy. I’ll have to catch up and watch it. I like Ward he’s a good coach, congratulations Cas. Saints travel to Cas on Friday that should be a good game.

Ash Golding had a good last week against Saints.
