Whoosh!

Oh..Dear

Whoosh

Sorry.
I should have said:
Who..osh

Old Ear

Two old ears actually

Are they to blame as well for the woes at Bradford Bills? Posh southern Bitches

I doubt they will be in the relagation battle a few teams are on and around a similar number of points. I'm not sure they will make top 4 or even top 6, but they could make into the playoffs. They may struggle to gel, but I can't see them being relegated because there is far to much experience and strike power in that side.

I fell asleep & missed the second half. But I'm not sure it was lack of effort, they looked badly coached as a team & lacked basic technique.

Its early days yet, the team haven't gelled. Don't underestimate Brian Noble's coaching abilities, he's turned every team around that he has been involved with.

Anybody think Kyle Amor looks like he used to play bass guitar in E.L.O.

They looked, unsurprisingly, like a collection of individual players rather than a team. That problem will be solved with time, and once Chase is back they will win enough games to be clear of the bottom three (us, Wakey, London).

Saints, by contrast, looked like the finished article. Walsh must be loving it playing behind such a dominant pack. Swap Laffranchi for Masoe and they will get even better.
Imagine if they had a competent 6 and a replacement hooker! Good grief.

It is a lot easier when you can willingly cheat by breaking the salary cap in all fairness.

That one came out of the blue roger.

You sweet talking woman

He did a great job at Wigan

The Police requested the delay due to an accident on the adjacent Motorway.

For me Nobby has to abandon his 5 drives and aimless kick approach, we were without 3 on Thursday but will gell by June. Saints will win the lot this year.

Salford were poor last night and the good doctor will have been disappointed with the display and the crowd. However it is much too early to dismiss them and assume they will be relegation candidates . I would never underestimate Brian Noble.
Saints look very good but Super League's history is full of examples of teams who looked unbeatable at the beginning of a season but fell short at the end. In my opinion the forwards are the best set in super league at the moment.
I disagree with the post concerning Laffranchi-- he's a very reliable and underrated prop. A good professional in the Hargreaves style. From what little I've seen of Masoe he is explosive but prone to errors and I think Brown would choose all the props on show last night in his first choice 17.

Salford should get better as they all gell. London are in the same position with all of their new players. Is anyone keeping count of the overseas players London have? Another one signed today. Do they have an exemption from the 5 that everyone else has? They can't all have European grandparents.

It is an RFL conspiracy to make sure we get relegated. Didn't you know?

Do keep up.

Saints look very good. Luke Walsh is some player. I think they will be the team to best this year.
I don't know what to think about Salford, they looked like a very "Noble" team. No plan B.
And what's all this about gelling? Have they not been together all pre-season like most teams?

Agree,Walsh looked red hot and Kyle Amor/Walmsley(where did they get him from?)looked awesome.They're gonna take some beating as Salford/Warrington could not match the pace at which Saints move the ball.With Swift and Percival willing runners on the outside, they have a great blend of youth and experience.

Wish we had a WALSH,I could watch him play all day long.

I thought Tim Smith looked lost for Salford last night. Given he's probably spent pre-season with Chase it's probably not that surprising Salford looked un-threatening in attack. Noble teams generally are well organised defensively but they were all over the place so I'd fancy they'll concede points against most teams it's just if they can outscore sides.

Walmsley came from batLey, pretty sure we where keeping tabs on him. But we didn't sign him when we had the chance, and he is a properly nice guy to top it off also, Walsh was fab only issue like many teams is what happens if he is missing for a few weeks, do they have the cover just move lomax to 7?

You're signing him from Wigan, didn't you know? Overrated pile of Kiwi poop.
