Ok didn’t see that coming, Widdop at fullback and Philbin starting though he may aswell start because he is doing nothing off the bench.

Longstaff should play instead of J Clark at every single opportunity….and that bench is pretty woeful.

Normally I might agree but he took some big hits v Cats

Saints by 3/4 tries IMO.

Just looked outta the lounge window and not many of us here!

I can only think that Widdop at fullback will prove a bit of an unknown quantity for Saints' defence. Might be our only hope. Either that or Powell is basically just trying anything different in the hope it pays off for once. As bad as Widdop has been this year, I'd still put him at halfback ahead of Ratchford, who is probably better under the high ball. Maybe they'll interchange positions during the game.

Watching from Dublin tonight. Already frustrated having to listen to JJB trying to appear and sound intelligent FFS.

Pace on both wings. No chance that would have been scored with Charnley.

Lol how do we start so unexpectedly well and somehow concede direct from the scrum on our own head and feed lol you literally could not write it.. we will see how they respond now after that

Feckwits!

That was pathetic, amateurish after a bright start. Why did Holmes trap it at all?

Holmes been much better today. Half backs awful.

Poor from Clarke. Davis never going to power over from there. Try and get repeat sets!!!

Sucker punch. Anyone spotted Williams?

Typical Wire letting in a try just before half time.Long 40 ahead.

Well a much improved performance so far. Really we should be going in ahead given the errors saints have made.

Has he? He's had one good run, and then pulled a jack Hughes when we had an overlap

Or Widdop and Ratchford. Tough when props don’t make metres.

all relative!!

Powell was fuming about that.

Decent half from Wire. Just let down by that rediculous try from the scrum (which came from Matautia's rediculous offload attempt) and switching off in the last few minutes of the half letting saints get 95 yards in the set.

We need to score next or I fear a collapse.

Commentators said at one stage we made 6 metres from 3 tackles

. Pack is so outgunned but the effort is there.

Fearing an onslaught in 2nd half

Last 3 first halves have been encouraging or at least gutsy. Let's hope this 2nd half doesn't follow the Wigan and cats 2nd halves too as they were both abysmal and embarrassing.

I dont see us turning this around unfortunately, I think it's going to get bad from here.
