Twenty Five

And if Wigan hadn't thrown away 20 point leads (twice) we would have been eight points clear.

Ifs buts and maybes eh!!!

It certainly is, considering Potter would apparently struggle to coach the Aussie Test team to beat Thatto Heath Under 12s, Eastmond isn't fit to lace Matty Smiths boots and Pryce is a winger hiding at 6.

It is a lot of that for sure, quite easily Saints could have won 3 of the 4 games they have lost this season and have been joint top - even if Wigan hadn't thrown away the lead in them games - both teams have reasons to be annoyed about some performances and happy about others.

And at the same with Warrington could have beaten us both (and should have beaten Wigan in that game) and been top on their own!!

One great thing about that for Saints fans (of whom many who thought after Hull in the fog the top 8 might have been pushing it) is that it shows that we are still there or there abouts again despite having major disruption to the backs and injuries in the forwards.

Anybody who really thought that is a knee jerking fool.

Oh i know I couldn't agree more - but they were a good few of that train of thought sadly.
