    All the preparation for months and LMS at centre. I do not believe it until I see it

    Definitely a surprise if LMS is centre. We have only lost one centre/come back row to injury and I thought we had more cover than that. Turner moving to stand off and losing Jones has all of a sudden left us vulnerable. It looks like Salford will have Jones & Griffin at centre. Griffin has quite a good try scoring record. So disappointing if LMS does turn out there. I would prefer a back for a back.

    A team sheet to boggle the mind. Could go horribly wrong or be inspired. Here's hoping it's the latter.

    Can see the logic in keeping turner at half back, they need games together if we're sticking with him.

    I heard fages picked up a knock before last week, which might explain him being on the bench. Wouldn't be surprised to see LMS mark up against Jones

    I'm on a train at 8.07pm coming back from London so I'll miss the whole game

    Looking at that team sheet I've probably dodged a bullet there. Could be a bizarre performance - how many people can you play out of position in one team?

    If that happens wouldn't be surprised to see Jones get the better of him.

    I agree with Dux earlier in the thread. I don't necessarily think LMS will be awful at centre, but I hate that our coach and the modern game in general considers it pretty normal to play a forward in the three quarters. Whatever happened to players being skilled at certain positions? Now wr just have a load of 15-16 stone identikits who can play at centre, prop, back row, loose etc. It's annoying.

    I'm beginning to see why Widnes let Owens go so easily ....

    Have we got off the coach yet I wonder?

    Made more errors in 20 minutes than Quinlan did in his whole time here

    If Quinlan was total crap as the experts on here stated what does it make Owens?

    Utter crap?

    We have bigger problems than one dropped bomb though. No depth, no ball movement, lethargic, its just very, very poor indeed. We dont look as hungry as Salford. Nothing more needs to be said.

    We look totally flat . Now we have no halfbacks on the field , a second row at centre and a centre playing stand off. Kieron Cunningham = coaching genius

    Yeah these bums need to get us back into this game as Cunningham has left himself open to untold levels of abuse handing that team sheet in

    Keiron Cunningham was a wonderful player. A coach he is not and I think this season will prove it, which is why the recent extension is a terrible, terrible bit of business for the club.

    It goes beyond the team sheet , we can't defend and yet again our only tactics are smash it up the middle and kick early. It's boring and one dimensional and Salford are just cruising

    Potentially underestimated them here. This is a calamity really. Carving us open out wide, gaining easy yards down the middle, an utter calamity of a half. At 20-6 I was half confident we could pull this back, but at 26-6, not so sure.



    Phil Clarke is in his element here.

    What a farce, the worst saints performance in years? 32-6 at half time against a Salford time embarrassed last week, Cunningham seriously needs a long look in the mirror if he thinks turner is a better option at 6 than fage, god help us next week against a proper team like Sydney.

    Pitiful attempt at impersonating Rugby League players. Cunningham is proving he isn't up to the task but no need new contract beckons.
    On the Back foot looking for the front one.
