Sat 24th Sept: SLGF: St Helens v Leeds Rhinos KO 18:00 (Sky)

[Dunbar]

Liam Moore has been on screen a lot.  I am sure he is pleased he got a fresh wax especially for the big game.

He intentionally lifted the player off the ground. 

No he did not, he tackled him around the hip area and the attacking players momentum provided the lifting force, simple physics.

I feel like if the Leeds players had thrown their arms up it would have been spotted. 

Hardaker has had a class game for Leeds, and Bentley has stood up again. Sutcliffe has had the ball in space a few times and Saints are happy to watch him as he is ######.

They shouldn’t have to. If a player runs behind one of his own players, he should give himself up or be penalised.

[dkw]

Another awful end to a set by Leeds.

[Futtocks]

Great defence yet again, to stop Rhyse Martin getting the ball down.

[Man of Kent]

Liam Moore has been faultless, for my money. Excellent referee.

[GeordieSaint]

Greta tackle by Hopatate.

I agree, it was an obstruction even if the folk who go round doing laughing reactions but not putting forward any opinions presumably don't.

You my favourite poster in saints match threads ha ha....

Leeds allow Conrad to get it down Saints hold leeds up. 12 point swing there. 

I dont want Saints to win next year and at this point I will even cheer for Leigh. 

[faithfulbyname]

Over 10,000 empty seats..

The attacking player went backwards. He wasn't running backwards. His momentum didn't do that at all.

They kept some segments empty in case people who count seats turned up and could be kept away from fans enjoying themselves 

[dkw]

Only 3 forward passes....

But 60,000 full one's. Don't forget there's a recession on.

It's almost as if RL is played in some if the poorest parts of the country and there's some kind of cost of living crisis...
