He's killing us, no surprise really

8 penalties in the first half against us? That's most teams total for an entire game

Are you for real?

He went to the video ref to check for foul play and sent someone off, which i've never seen happen before. Then the 2 points you got was from a questionable strip from delaney, which was evened out by one for leeds a few minutes later. But the subsequent penalties, saints have been pushing the limit with lying on all night.

To say the ref is killing you is f*cking mental.

In the lead-up to Leeds' try, he pinged us for a very slight forward pass, missed a knock-on by Leeds (then the Leeds player who'd knocked on going at the saints player). Took the tackle count back to zero twice (the second time very dubiously), a couple of what looked like crossing by Leeds, then penalised us. From the kick-off, penalises us AGAIN, giving Leeds the field position to score the try (although shameful defending from Saints gifted it)

Certainly in the 2nd qtr, Leeds got every decision.

Are you? It happens plenty stop being melodramatic.



I could list why you shouldn't of had 5/6 of your penalties, like Jamie peacock holding the saints defender on him for your first penalty goal, but you'd just ignore me rationally telling you that. The Leeds fans are ridiculous, they have booed all night, and the ref just caved into their whim immediately. As a result, we've had what? 3 play the balls in your 20 metre line in 40 minutes. With no chance of keeping you down their and win any arm wrestle, because the Leeds fans will just boo and result in a penalty.



Not really. BUT Saints should be handling it better.

COYS!!!!

Happened to Puletua vs Catalans when he played for us, that's one off the top of my head.

Pathetic first half from Saints. Silverwood hasn't been great but we're bringing it on ourselves. Discipline HAS to improve.

Keep procedings civil please folks.

I think silverwood's been reading this - missing the LMS pass when held was wrong. Then Silverwood gives a knock on against Leeds

; )

But then misses McDonnell getting the ball stripped right on the line

FFS

Woeful performance by Saints, though

Yep. We look clueless which was always going to happen with the lack halfbacks.

Silverwood returns to form by missing a blatent shoulder charge on Makinson, then a high tackle by Sinfield. But manages to see the LMS knock on

Turner you plum. I'd have kicked that.

Most Rugby players from about u14 upwards can kick em from under the sticks

Any previous complaints I had about silverwood I withdraw

he reffed us in the second half like he did Leeds in the first!

Didn't deserve anything from that.

Silverwood makes a daft decision in our favour to finish, but can't believe the Whinos fans rounding on him.

Top 2 baby!

I agree but we got it and tbh stealing a win off scabby Leeds doesnt make me feel too bad.

I'm over the moon. Come on Bulls for Sunday!

Take what you can get at this stage.

Just shows what a lack of brains does to a team. Sinfield showing what brains can do with 12 men.

I actually think they played better then they would of without the send off. It gave them a sense of purpose and siege mentality that they were missing in the first 20 minutes.

Have to agree with bewareshadows. Even if the entire team got together I don't think that Saints team could scrabble together a rugby brain between them.

Wello passing it down the blind side in our own 30m towards the end of the game, leading to Dawson going into touch. WTF?

I also have to question Browns tactics tonight. I think the pre game tactics were probably right but once Leeds went down to 12 men we should have been looking at the edges when we were in Leeds' half.

Also the biggest problem for me was why on earth did LMS go to centre? There was numerous better options and it was just absolute lunacy as far as I'm concerned.

On a positive note, LMS was very good as was Walmsley and I thought Lance played okay.
