There was everything in that first thirty that suggested it was impossible to win. They couldn't make any metres and the game was being played solely in our own half.

Westwood, Hughes and Russell between them must currently account for a large proportion of our mistakes, unforced errors, indiscipline, missed tackles and penalties. As has been stated, you expect the error/penalty whenever they get involved.

None of them should be remotely near the squad next week - in the case of the back row we have options and in the case of Russell, anything is an improvement.

Indeed. Jack hughes has been utterly abysmal this season..to drop our only second row in form was just plain ludicrous when Westwood and Hughes have been woeful. Russell is just laughable.

it takes a special talent to make Jack Owens look like Rugby Player let alone a world beater.

Take a bow Matty russell.........

Matt Russell couldn't tackle a Sunday dinner.

having NO possession in the Saints 25 until the 38th minute of the 1st half is the biggest suggestion I have EVER seen, in 30+ years of watching RL, that the team on the pitch is not capable of winning.
