Sat 4 Sept: SL Magic: St Helens v Catalans Dragons KO 17:15 (TV)

[Hvy wg]

Dezaria is dead on his feet.

 

 

[GeordieSaint]

Saints warming up nicely. Be interesting to see if Catalan can handle the pressure.

[GeordieSaint]

… and they crack. Coote in!

Probably won't. There's a class of difference between Saints spine and ours.

Obstruction on Maloney though.

[Harry Stottle]

Pure class young Welsby.

[DavidM]

Nice try by Coote , who then gets kicked in the head by the ref who says ‘ have some of that ‘ … no he didn’t really 

[barnyia]

Two dummy runners still in the line?

I think a few of the Catalan pack is. Good Saints side this. Pretty relentless. 

Big tackle by Kasiano; needed that.

[Hvy wg]

Kasiano pops Lees open

[Hvy wg]

Yaha getting on my nerves.

[dkw]

Walmsley should be penalised for that, hate it when attackers move forward like that.

[Hvy wg]

Were not far but were not there yet

[Hvy wg]

Gil Dudson on, will he justify a wage?

[Hvy wg]

Welsby has such a punchable face.

[barnyia]

I know it's good defence and winning tactics by saints but all the pushing and falling over and holding on at  the play the ball is annoying to watch, both in defence and attack!

Done a lot more than kasiano who's just hidden since that one big run.

[dkw]

Terrible goal line defence.

Come on, what has Dudson done? He stands in tackles, goes in 3rd in defense and gets penalized for holding on. Plays nowhere near his size and has no impact whatsoever.

Saints bend the rules better than any other team in the competition.

But to be fair they do most things better than anybody else.

At least he does that, kasiano just hides from the ball constantly, and I bet he's one if the best paid players out there.

Kasiano just folded Bentley.
