I’m not a big fan of Woolf up to yet.
He did’t need to change a single thing when he came in, not a sausage.
We were dominating SL for 2 and a half years, playing “The Saints Way” and attacking with flair, fast PTB, spread the ball around and set standards so high, when we did lose (think CC semi in 2018 and final in ‘19 against Warrington) we knew that we had let it slip away because we were so good.
Fast forward to now and we seem (up to lockdown) to be on a different wavelength and trundling more up the middle since the dark Cu______am days, and all this talk of wresting in the ruck in an attempt to be WIGAN in 2018 (when IMHO I saw the worst grand final of Anti-rugby that I can remember, when WIGAN smothered Wire)
I know we’ve lacked key personnel but that’s part of Rugby.
When the game returns, if the (imho brilliant) “6 to go” rule is introduced, last years Saints would have a literal field day but will Woolf have the nous to accept that we need to dump the wrestling and revert?
I’ve said countless times that I’d rather be entertained and win nothing than be bored with a trophy.......
I’m certain we can bounce back when the season starts but only if we go back to our strengths.
