Okay guys let's play wheres drinky... Where is he? ###### nowhere

In my hand. Raising a glass to our friends from Wigan. With comments like theirs, is it any wonder 25% have walked away?

[Rupert Prince]

Saints tactic seems to kick the ball up for height and not distance.

No props. In fact, tonight no front row. 

[dkw]

Catalans heads have gone here, gonna be a garbage 15 minutes, good to see the ref take action though.

[Guest]

Not allowed to tackle saints players anymore?

[DavidM]

Lost the plot

Yep. Who’s going to throw the punch?

[Hvy wg]

Can't tackle them. Farcical. 

[Hughsehhh]

How can anyone watch that replay and say it was contact with the head? Time to watch have I got news for you and look forward to Wigan hammering this saints team next week.

Roby is perennially class, however

[Hela Wigmen]

Those bloody Saints players hitting each other late and round the head. 

[Northern Eel]

Skill has beaten aggression. I like both, but aggression on its own has to be controlled and measured. Catalans have made it too easy for the ref to penalise them and only have themselves to blame for their part in the defeat.

[Dunbar]

If you take an ill disciplined team and add the most penalised player in the NRL for two out of the last three seasons as the on field leader you don't end up with a team that will win a competition.

Hitting a clavicle isn't hitting the head. 

[Davo5]

Nothing in that,Lomax & Coote can't take a tackle.

No.  That was on the shoulder.  

[DavidM]

Roby , total freak . Same as Cameron Smith in terms of longevity , toughness and total quality in what he does

Big call Manfred

I do think that the sin binning of Benjamin Garcia has been a turning point in the game, and has made it very difficult for Catalans to win this one.

[17 stone giant]

I was hoping this game might have been close, but credit to St Helens they've been superb.

Indeed , and them 6 tries

[Hela Wigmen]

Get Walmsley off!

[Northern Eel]

It is going to be a patched up team next week to face Wigan. I still fancy them to make it a classic final though.

[Wollo Wollo Wayoo]

Can't help thinking this is a bit of payback owed from the Leeds game for Catalans.  What goes round etc.

Should have been off earlier for a high tackle.

[Gerrumonside ref]

Great try for Saints!
