Dreadful support. Must have been 500 saints fans. So 4700 Huddersfield is pitiful

As a sliding defender even as a kid you're told to trust your inside man. Percival did that and Wilkin made him look a fool for it.
There were plenty of poor players today, but from a veteran like Wilkin I think its tougher to take.
Not made the England and rightfully so.
Although how Burrow/Morley/Mossop and Roby are in is beyond me. Burrow has had a shocking season and I would be surprised if the other 3 have 10 games between them in the last 2 months.
Danny Houghton must be slotting McNamara's missus to not get a look in
Agreed.
Presumably he is using the Exiles game as prep for the world cup (as opposed to last season when he was supposed to be using the games to give players a chance, which he messed up but never mind). Assuming my presumption correct, if Robes is fit enough then he should play as we don't get another chance to practice as a national team. However, I think it would have been wise to include Danny Houghton not as an either/or but as an addition, to interchange with Robes, not just against the Exiles but as practice for the World Cup. To ask Robes to play 80 minutes at that level is not only ridiculous but irresponsible IMO.Although how Burrow/Morley/Mossop and Roby are in is beyond me.

I'm not sure Morley will get a look in come the world cup, what with the two Burgess brothers creating a storm and Jammer going as well as ever. If they all retain their fitness and add in Crabtree and maybe one of the Wigan forwards, I would imagine Morley will be reserve only.
Fact is Wilkin is supposed to be one of the more experienced players out there. He put Percival in a horrible position for that try and gave away some needless penalties because he was frustrated with how the team and he was playing. He knows as well as anyone that both he and the club can do much better than what their current form belies.
Did Danny brough give the £100 to Jon Wilkins testimonial.
How dare macmathingymajig not pick jon. Doesnt he realise that jon is 'the special one' in his own mind. Jon will be bitterly dissapointed because he was hoping to sell some of his 'Jon Wilkin -ash trays' 'Jon Wilkin - lamp shades' 'Jon wilkin - runs his blood to water chemistry sets' 'Jon Wilkin -wheeltrims for wheelchairs' 'Jon Wilkin-exterior paint' 'Jon Wilkin-sings sadcafes greatest hits' 'Jon Wilkin -my testimonial box set dvd's' to all of the players and fans at the exilies game. Now he's going to have to put them all in the massive warehouse with the jw12 testimonial shirts and framed (mahogony) pictures of jw12, he couldnt sell.
Wilkins still has more to offer than you ever have or will though, sarava.
Top game from Wilkin today - sure it must help not having to do everyone else's job. Sure it wont be good enough for some thougb!
