Quote ="meast"JD on radio leeds is obviously a poo stirring tool then, for a start we had 2 coaches which is more or less a hundred and plenty more made their own way over,our support once again was poor at knowsley road i reckoned 2-300 maximum however the saints fans were very quiet once again and only made any noise when the team was under pressure or a decision went against them,of which there wasn't many of them.
anyway onto the game, last night we were our own worst enemies again,too many dropped balls,too many missed tackles,too many daft penalties,too many wrong options.i dont think we played that badly we just came up with errors and slack defence at the wrong times,our defence on our own line came up short too many times and saints have the players to make you pay for it.
saying that though we showed great character to come back from 16-4 down then 22-16 down and had we not had injuries to key players and had 2 tries disallowed one which looked fine the other slightly dodgy then we could have been celebrating our only win a knowsley road in my lifetime.
i would also like to see meli's "tackle" on mcgilvaray again as it looked very poor indeed'"
Are you aware that Saints had 3 players on International duty and were without Soliola, Fa'asavalu and Wilkin who are first choice players, plus 2 players who would have come in for them were injured then Wheeler went off injured in the 1st half?
The players on our bench last night have a total of 21 first team games between them. One was making his debut.
We have used 29 players this season.
