[quote="Wires71":2a056xb6]We should mock St Helens at our peril. We were lucky to beat them by 1 point at home the last time we played them.[/quote:2a056xb6] I don't remember us being particularly lucky. And I think we are past the point where they can lodge an appeal against the result.

Probably likely to approach Trump and Musk to see if they can ‘cancel’ Robert Hicks.

I think you all know what I mean. For all their poor form last season, their worst season in a long time, we beat them by a single drop goal at home in the playoffs.

We allowed them to hit the strap early and get a match wining lead on us. The comeback is what defines the superior season over Saints. That effort to beat Saints in the second half, likely affected our next match vs KR. We ought to have beaten them comfortably, we faced them fatigued. Our LL and GF was effectively erased not by Saints, kR or Wigan, but by ourselves. Resting players in a very winnable game v Wigan the week before the CC, and then our last chance with Vaughan’s poor discipline vs Leigh in a game we ought to have put 20 on them. We must finish 2025 top 2 minimum. 3rd position imo is a failure.
