    Default Tonight's Games

    Some close games so far tonight. Could do with the Cas, Hull & Wakey results going the way they are now, with Wire coming back to beat Leeds.

    I would say we want Leeds to win and give us some breathing space

    Looks like Warrington are getting well and truly performance cultured by Leeds.

    We're not going to be in the Middle-8's. None of Widnes, Leigh, Huddersfield or Catalan are going to finish higher than us. Surely now, with Holbrook instilling some belief & a better gameplan, and Barba due to come into the team, we should focus our eyes on the top 4 - and for that we need the current incumbents to drop points.

    Besides, I can't stand Leeds. Can't shake the feeling that they conned their way to those SL titles, helped by some luck & dodgy reffing along the way. Feels like they've robbed us of our glory, after we dominated SL for the first 10 years.

    Hull, Warrington, Catalans and Wigan need to carry on struggling, made up for Salford and Wakefield they deserve to be in that lofted position. Can't see Castleford and Leeds losing that many games. If Saints keep improving we should be well in the mix by the end of next month.

    Warrington were poor tonight, I was looking forward to that match on TV but it was drab to watch, they made leeds look better than they are.

    Salfords attendance not to bad considering it was against Catalan so very few visiting fans.

    Seem to be having a few problems at Hull, Fonatu has asked to be released from his contract at the end of the season. He was a big part of their success last year.

    Saints will be in the top 8 without a doubt and still have a very good chance of ultimately making the semi finals come the business end of the season. The fact that the club will have Ben Barba to call upon at some stage, is a huge plus for St Helens because he has the ability to be the best player in the competition.

    But what you have said here about Leeds is unfair and nonsense quite frankly. You have to accept that Leeds had better sides than St Helens over this period you are talking about. Simple as that. They built on Saints' blue print and put speed and athleticism all over the park. They brought through their golden generation of players- McGuire, Burrow, Sinfield, Hall, Calderwood and so on, and recruited very well with Webb and then Hardaker chiming in to the line from full back and of course signing Jamie Peacock for example.

    And Just to comment on the Leeds game last night, Rob Burrow at 34 still has that speed to burn and is such a great weapon to have off the interchange. I said before the season had started that I though Matt Parcell would be a great signing for them and I think he has proved it. He's been the best hooker in SL thus far for mine.


    Regards,

    STEVO

    I've always thought he might be. He is always knowledgeable about all the teams here and who is who in the NRL. Seems a bit more informed than the normal fan.

    Far better results today. The scum and lucky Leeds losing is great, whilst Wire's woes continue.

    A million miles away and a total pipe dream, but a top 4 of Cas, Salford, Hull and us would be great - if we weren't to win from there, I'd not be upset with any of the others taking the title.

    Whilst you're obviously not the real Stevo, you're just as adept at talking bollocks.

    Saints were the architects of their own downfall in 2007 by being complacent, but in 2008 & 2009 were victims of some dodgy reffing.

    It's a constant irritation that we as a club failed to sufficiently ram home our dominance of SL's first 12/13 years in the honours book.
