Great first half for St Helens. They have so many good players that can make breaks and score.

Hopefully they can make the extra man pay at the start of the second half and put the game to bed. 

It's already tucked up in bed , this contest has been over before that half was finished

Alright mate.

I'm not sure what to say, I rewound it and he was 3rd in, 12 hit first, not sure who next but Kasiano came in and then wrestled. Are you happy with his efforts, he gets away with a lot as he has a massive initial impact when he comes on, then spends 15 minutes avoiding the ball and makes hardly any tackles. It amazes me he gets the praise he does.

Catalans are a second half team

Kasiano comes in in the first movement and shocks Bentley then wrestle him to the ground. Dudson runs in 3rd in every tackle after initial contact and lays here waiting. 

Kasiano is a fan favorite, most don't even know Dudson is playing. Dude is invisible.

Has anybody seen Drinkwater and Whare today? Missing poster being out on boards.

Saints haven't conceded more than 20 points in a game since March 2020 so I will be confident if we get one more that our defence will hold.

I do expect a bit more from Catalans in the second half, but being a man down won't help them.

Good to see we didn't panic after conceding early and going down a man, Woolf has instilled a lot of character in this team.

[Hvy wg]

Mourgue at wing?

Good defence from saints, annoying defence but effective! 

[Hvy wg]

We're ###### stupid. Yaha off for Mourgue and we expect the 70kgs halfback to return kicks. 

[Hvy wg]

I've grown to like Jomkins at prop. 

[7723]

Awful play by Morgue.

[GeordieSaint]

Game, set, match I think. 

[Hvy wg]

Maloney isn't in this at all. 

Mourgue needs to take a breather. Has got an acute case of "le melon". 

[DavidM]

Way to many stoppages for every injury nowadays 

[Hvy wg]

Sami Langi is everything you could hope for. Reliable.

Never says anything, doesn't pick his games, always working hard.

[Hvy wg]

Playing with only 1 sub now.

50 incoming.

[Hvy wg]

Langi running Makinson down.

[GeordieSaint]

Maybe not over yet. Great try by Catalan.

[Hvy wg]

Bousquet is having his best season ever.

[barnyia]

Saints don't always play well  the full 80! 

[barnyia]

Does the escort rule not exist in super League? 

[Hvy wg]

Mourgue is having a stinker.

[dkw]

Better from catalans, throw it around,nothing to lose...

Man that's a stupid penalty to give away.

[GeordieSaint]

Poor by Roby.

[barnyia]

Saints manage to slow the play the ball down to 5/6 seconds minimum
