You stumbled towards the LLS hoping that Cas would fall to Catalans.......not trying to wind up or troll but just seriously pointing out that their's no real evidence of Saints being able to produce under TRUE pressure.'"
Whatever handicaps other teams faced - they can hardly be any worse than entering the playoffs without the league's best scrum half and the likes of Jordan Turner and Lance Hohaia assuming the roles of playmaker. And if Wigan were down a man - we were down to zero halves. If you don't consider such "winning under TRUE pressure" then I await with interest your comments should Leeds win in similar circumstances.

What that tells us is that Saints are guilty of not having a good young backup should an injury happen. You may not have had 'proper halves' but you still had an extra man on the field for SEVENTY EIGHT minutes, if you really think that you were under real pressure then you're deluded. All teams have injuries at that point, I doubt McIlorum was sat in the stands because of tactical reasons now was he?

Spot on. Any opinion that isn't "Saints have the best set of forwards ever assembled in RL history" is way beyond his capabilities of debate. I take back my previous claim of him NOT being an idoit....he quite clearly is.

I think we are now too beefy to play like either Warrington or Leeds.

| No. But we can keep the ball in play through offloads. There are many ways to skin a cat.
