I think the reason we caught a cold in the second half was because we got cocky after scoring the Moore/Clough try. We ran the subsequent kick-off back with sweeping passing moves from our own line, lost the ball and never recovered. I don't think our drop off in the last 20mins was disinterest, it was over-confidence. That's probably a slightly more positive thing to take us to the Wire as I doubt we'll ever get the chance in that game to think we have it in the bag.

He was sat in the stand near me.

I dont know if he was injured. However his performances this season havent been upto scratch, and have been below the other forwards in the team.

Was glad to see Bryn start as he has been excellent this season and deserves on current form to be in the starting 17

Spot on

You're dead right I'm cr*pping it for next week; I reckon we are going to get beat and it won't be funny or pretty. Not a nice way to finish our final KR previous winning run run against the dire.

Hope I'm wrong, but hanging in against a team dire should have put 60+ against last week is not inspiring especially with our injuries.
I've just got to get used to our new status in SL as being slightly above average.
Obviously this is just my humble opinion.
honestly I'm not defeatist; just getting used to a new reality and looking forward to a new stadium.

the second half display was pathetic .To be holding on against Crusaders is an indictment of the players and Mr Charisma Potter.The big guns of RL are laughing at us.

Just seen a few tries on Sky Sports News, have the pubeless fools who got Cullen sacked moved to Knowsley Road? Awful lot of booing going on.

See you next week.

That definately was aimed at the referee.

Wilkin does alot more than Flannery though...

Runs some good lines and gaps does Wilko

I'm not being funny but i'm sick to death of hearing how well wilkin runs good lines!!!!

He never makes a break so them good lines he's running must be wasted because of our passing

I've avoided saying this for last 3yrs but fook it, wilkin is 2nd rate player who is not good enough for saints anymore. Since the likes of scully, joynt, and few other stars have left he's now showing he was being carried.

I can't fault he defensive efforts but thats all he is, his attacking is shocking for a player who they say has all the skills. IMO he's behind flannery, clough, tony p in the backrow.

Flannery ain't much better to be honest.

I wish you'd stop holding back and just say what you think
