Not holding my breath. Season’s fooked.

I just hope the players have some self respect.
We know they’re not the brightest bunch but even their agents will be spelling it out to them , if they continue to play like that that, then no other club will want them.

Another rumour is that Leeming is headed for the NRL with the NQ Cowboys.

My prediction is for Hull FC to win against the Saints.

Cator and Litten are in for Macintosh and Evans so I’m assuming it’s
Hoy
Litten
Scott
Griffin
Swift
Lover
Clifford
Tag
Houghton
Sao
Savelio
Lane
Fash
Subs
Satae
Brown
Dwyer
Cator
My issue is the defending from Lover, Lane outside isn’t good enough I think if we was at home Barron would be wing Litten 1 and Hoy 6

Saints will have a field day with that line up



Lovodua should never play stand off again

You’re bound to get one right eventually but not tonight.

Lovodua would be one of the first ones out for me. Offers nothing.

Much rather go with Litten at 1, Hoy at 6 for a few weeks

Edge of Lane, Scott and Litten

long night ahead

We last beat saints in 2017! Didn't realise our record against them was quite as bad as that

Let's be honest if litten is as bad as mcintosh then he'll only be going to Australia for holidays

Time for him to prove he's all the talk throw him in

What you mean "Bad as that" they've been the best team by far pretty much since then

If we hadn't beaten Wakefield or rovers since then then I'd see your point

I mean that as good as they are, they still do lose games and we should have beaten them at least once since 2017 whether home or away.

Ignore him, your point was a fair one.

As bad as the last couple of years have been, we've beaten everyone else in the last twelve months. To have not beaten Saints since 2017 (fourteen matches) is noteworthy especially as since then they have lost in Super League to
Leeds
Wigan
Castleford
Wakefield
Huddersfield
Warrington
Catalans
London
Salford
Toulouse
Leigh

Like saying Southampton not beating man city since 2017 is a "worry"

We've been pretty average after 2017 so it's hardly surprising given saints have been the best team since then

Not for the first time you've completely missed the point.

I would have gone for playing Barron and Litten at full back with Hoy to 6 for a few games.
Dont see the difference in playing at home or away.
You could say there was less pressure on the young players playing away.
My previous point was it doesant matter who plays on our right edge it will be peppered anyway given we have Lovodua and Lane there.
How Lane gets another chance ill never understand

One slight saving grace is that whoever does play right wing, presumably Litten, will be opposite Bennison. Granted he looks a good player and has been given the number 5 shirt for a reason, but he is still young and inexperienced himself.

suppose if he had dropped Taylor and Lane we would have been struggling for a bench

Oh god Taylor on the bench. How many times is he going to try & prove something by shooting out the line to put in a big hit & completely missing?

There is no "point" that's why you tool

( Before the 8s cut off )

Saints 2018 lost 2 out 23

2019 3 out of 23

2020 5 losses

2021 5 losses

2022 6 losses

So basically alot of teams wouldn't of beaten them that many times since 2017



Get back to crying in your corner

Grow up.

Surprised at some of the names that have kept a place in the 17 but then slim pickings for changes. Hopefully they come out from the start with much more intensity and line speed.
Not expecting much tonight if I’m honest and just hoping we can’t be any worse than last week.

How on tackle 5 on their line did it go to fash, who then passed it 20m to ligi sao? Dumb play...not a bad start apart from that though, tackling and go forward much improved

Solid start. Need to keep this up.
