saints changing room looks passionless

[Saint Toppy]

Hull thoroughly deserve their lead, Saints tackling is awful. We can't control it at all and let them land on the front every time which gives them a quick ptb.

If Saints tackling doesn't improve this could be embarrassing

[Man of Kent]

We've got to have more RL on terrestrial TV. Like the BBC's coverage and their lack of knobhead/senile analysts

[C H Calthrop]

Inventiveness pays off immediately

[Irish Saint]

I am his biggest critic but that was brilliant from Walsh.

The BBC has improved out of sight over the last few years and is streets ahead of Sky, with the exception of camera angles (although Sky has reduced those too now, along with everything else).

It generally does but Cunningham doesn't like inventiveness.  He likes his structures.  (He spends too much time talking to Shaun Wane).

Not seen today's game but Jiffy's mispronunciation of Salford and S'au was beyond irritating.

Game and energy management are apparently key.

So Wilkin said.  I didn't realise what he meant was put no energy into the management of defence!

[Griff9of13]

Hull in again after a lacklustre few minutes from them.

[C H Calthrop]

Give LMS the captains armband. 

[Saint Toppy]

What a fat useless tub of lard owens is

[Saintslass]

What a fat useless tub of lard owens is

No.  You have that wrong.  Cunningham said he is a young talent! 

[Saintslass]

Give LMS the captains armband. 

I think that would be worth a shot.  He's limited as a player and he can have monumental brainfarts but he shows more enthusiasm week in, week out than Wilkin has done in any game all season.

Right now Wilkin needs to be off. He's out on his feet.

[Griff9of13]

That try had an air of inevitability about it; more a case of when than if.

[Irish Saint]

Dear oh dear

[Saintslass]

Right now Wilkin needs to be off. He's out on his feet.

Clearly he hasn't managed his energy very well then.  I suppose Cunningham had them doing weights all week or some other great preparation, given Cunningham's form for preparing his team.  Not.

 

Well done Hull on a great win (and even though the end of the match isn't here, they've clearly won).  We were in that game for the first ten minutes and that was it.

 

Oh well.  At least we can all save some cash on Challenge Cup tickets!

[Man of Kent]

Saints need a bit of a clear-out. Body language is telling. Too much negativity and disunity.

Cunningham isn't the sharpest tool in the box either. But at least it makes for a more interesting comp when Saints (and Leeds) are poor

[weloveyouwakefield2]

How are St. Helens playing so bad? This is rubbish!!

[terrywebbisgod]

Great to see Superfan backing her team.

[Irish Saint]

" there is only one side in this"

[Saint Toppy]

Too many of Cunningham's 2nd rate donkeys in the Saints team, lead by a clueless coach

[Mark S]

Looks like Saints are playing with the aim of getting rid of Cunningham.
