Seeing as the last one got locked.............................................

I've just had a speculative punt on Catalans tonight at 4/1.
Could be a bridge too far this one for the French but would be good to see them get to the GF after finishing only 7th in regular season.
Just pole-axe Roby early doors and they might have a sniff.

Willie Manu leaving Saints at the end of the season, confirmed in Eamonn McManus' progrqamme notes.

Silverwood having a shocker tonight, has got virtually every major decision wrong.

Regardless of whether Escare is fit or not, he got to Swift and it was a w@nk attempt of a tackle.

Spot on, poor effort.

Been useless.

Silverwood has absolutely ruined this game

Poor standard all round. Saints missing Lomax and Walsh, Catalan just knackered particularly Escare, but overall a fair reflection of Super League 2014.

Clarke trying to talk the game up.
Like since 50s says it been a fairly dross affair all round.

Nice big Christmas hampers in the post from saints to Silverwood and the schoolgirl running the line in front of the saints fans second half.

This is what really frustrates me about our game, because the whole of Catalan's season, all of that hard work is wreaked by one man.

Did he get any decisions right tonight, a fine example of how a ref can turn a game.

Joke refereeing display, if FC were on the end of that standard of officiating i'd have lobbed the TV out the window by now!

been an awful playoff series so far, poor crowds, walkover scores in the 1st v 4th & 2nd v 3rd games in round one, even the Saints chairman cracked a joke during the laughable 'Club Call' I hope the new structure restores some pride and interest in the game.

Totally agree.

Totally agree, been awful playoffs, thankfully the NRL playoffs have made up for it. SHOULD be a good game tonight

All this sympathy for the frogs, every time a team goes to the south of France they get the rough end of the decisions. Karma imo.

and your use of the word "Frogs" shows you up.

France is an amazing country, one day you should go.

I do apologise. The cheese eating surrender monkeys!!

shows your level of intelligence, xenophobia and racism are against the AUP

If you say.

I ask again, have you been to France, can you speak any foreign languages, do you even have a passport?

Watching the first NRL semi Souths/Roosters then watching what we were served up last night is fairly dispiriting.
It's like a different game played on a different planet and I say this with no joy.

I know, was thinking the same, makes super league look very amateurish. Love the commentary, unlike our own, when stevo wants every tackle penalising or a sending off, those aussie commentators want nothing penalising, makes for a great game

Clarke used the word [ibrutal[/i in regards to last nights game.
It was like watching fooking tiddliwinks compared to what went off at ANZ.
