Wigan v Saints.

Should be interesting.

Wigan need to win to have a chance of finishing second.
Saints need a win to have chance of making the play offs (top 6)

Will just add that Kick Off is 7pm. £4 Adults, £2 concessions.

wot teams will both have out does anyone know...?

Wigan won 34 - 26.

Saints scrum half Lee Gaskell was the outstanding player and caused Wigan all sorts of problems with his general handling, kicking and running.

One to watch.

oh good, another scrum half, can someone at thesaints academy turn the switch to "prop" please?

And winger

5 years ago I would have wet myself at the prospect of a decent scrum half coming through the setup, now it's more a case of

and "Can he play prop?"

anythings possible

this weekend brisbane played a prop at centre, he did 80 mins but is only a little chap at 6'5" and 18st6lb

thats a centre!

I think clubs should become specialist schools for rugby league players. You know, like secondary schools have developed into art colleges and language colleges and stuff. Saints would be the scrum half college. I think Leeds could turn out to be the winger college. If each club developed a particular position then taken all together we could have a fab England squad!

Just take the disinfectant you take to the bogs at KR with you.

that would be david taylor and by all accounts he had a very influential game

Lee Gaskell normally plays at stand off.

i think the normal half back pairing is danny wakefield and ben karalius who have gone really well this season. add lee gaskell in who plays stand off and were pretty well sorted for 6 and 7!

I find it hard to believe people moaning that we have a good group of half backs. "Another scrum half" - there will always be 6 or 7 young half backs across the first/reserves/academy, and I'd much rather they were good players than bad.

Even if Rogues had come on and said a Saints prop had a great game, most would write him off as useless at 18 when he hadn't yet filled out properly and wasn't smashing seasoned props in the super league (cough Frodsham cough).

Just be glad we had the stand out player.

That's not what i meant. its great we have good prospects coming through, and obviously a half back stands out more at that age as props are possibly 5 years off physical maturity, but you can tell if they have promise, like frodsham for example.

I didn't know that but was just about to post that he looks more of a stand off as he quite tall and rangy.

He did remind me of Sam Tomkins.

What really impressed me was his attitude, he made a couple of errors early on, and you could see he was really annoyed with himself, but he didn't let it affect his game.

The variation of his kicking game was superb, long kicks to touch, grubbers over the line and chip kicks over the defence. Add to that two well taken tries, some good passes and the kid had a great game.

Anyway that's enough praise for a Sentelliner, I'm going for a lie down in a dark room.

just listen to your grandkids, they have seen the light

Lee Gaskell was superb, he is a player who no doubt will have a chance at making it.

Is the lad quick?

He looked it, but it's difficult to say as like Sam Tomkins he has quite a long stride.

I'm not sure how old he is (anybody know?), but if grows he could easily become a centre, but he is certainly one of the most impressive youngsters I've seen this season.

He's 19 in October, looks like he could put a few Kilo's on by the penpic of him off the Saints site.
