Abdull only got 2 matches for his grab on Bentley was expecting a 4 match ban for that offence.

Does anyone have a link to the footage of the Lineham and Abdul incidents? One thing i’ve noticed when there’s a disciplinary case they never seem to show clips anywhere. It’s almost like it becomes taboo once they’ve been charged and nobody dares show a clip of it anywhere.
NEVER WRITE OFF THE SAINTS
He's a "Flatter to Deceive" character, I remember when he did the post match talk with a player from the winning side, Sean Long (Assistant Coach) came on and talked about the execution plays. Wells looked on in awe and was lost for constructive words and ended up a nodding donkey.
Kevin Naiqama wins appeal and is free to play in CC

Absolutely , when this fixture came out it was a God send . Absolutely delighted . Just gutted that Smug faced scumbag ain’t playing , I’d love to see Lees wipe his shitty smug grin off his face .
This is pay back time , I hope that not only do we smash them but leave a few on the sidelines for a few week .
I want to see fireworks from our pack or I’ll Be disappointed .
Agree entirely mate. One hundred percent.
I wish Lineham was playing - he’s shit and if you were back in your playing days you d have dropped his attitude like a short whisky. Probably have hit him where the button on the chin says asleep. We’d have loved to play against a •••• like that. Proper spear tackle candidate.

Somewhat harsh on the coach given our previous one flunked in a GF semi and the CC final. I honestly dont think the tactics in those matches differed massively from what Ive seen under Woolf: run same schemes on exit sets, forwards still have very similar roles and back patterns are also not dissimilar to JH. The only difference appears to be Saints are using Knowles in less of a ball playing role (think thats a waste).
What Holbrook managed consistently was getting us to play at an intensity that could blow teams off the park, pure speed. When Saints managed this against Leeds, Catalans, Hudds and Cas a few weeks back then what a surprise Woolf was suddenly the messiah.
The challenge vs Wire will be a game plan which threatens their defence more readily as they've been able to play a bend but dont break defence for a while and sting us on the counter. Look at the Cc final - made tons more metres, dominated territorially and yet we struggled horribly to score points. In other words Price has a good read on Saints and KW needs to address this.
Warrington will play it up the middle for the first 20 mins of the game so we will have to match them, if we don't then we lose composure trying to get the ball out to the edges and our ball retention goes under 50%. Walmsley mentions on his pre match interview that they have to match them in the middle so that our backs have as much opportunities as possible. The key for me is to put someone on Austin so that is kicking game is rushed and space is in short supply.
Can't stop the spirits when they need you.
This life is more than just a read through.
If it were possible, Austin has become more arrogant the last few games but if someone targets him and puts him under pressure from the hooter, he’s shown previously that he doesn’t like it. Slowly becoming one of my most disliked players, proper show pony and tries the one handed show and go/dummy at least 3 times a game.
Unlike the CC Final our team is fit and ready, but questions remain over whether Percy plays (I hope so) and Welsby's performance on the wing. He will be marking a speed merchant if they play Ashton there. I am quietly confident so long as Hicks is not the ref.
Just don't take the 'show and go' from Austin , tackle him every single time , Knowles has done a really good job on him in the past , same as please .
roy litherland it's happened i told you it would
Pretending to blackout bloody disgusting. Should be straight of for head tests but no never leaves the field once he’s got the penalty. What an actor.
