What's the age limit on Young Player of the Year? If eligible, Walmsley should walk it. Been a sensational find for you guys.


He's older than Liam Farrell.

I don't think he would have been picked.

Did Perry come out for the 2nd half?
I didn't notice him at all in the last 40 mins.
Your turnaround started when Walmsley came on and started taking the ball up and make good yards on every carry. Is he not ready yet to start a game?

We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.

Re: Thoughts from tonight : Mon May 20, 2013 9:45 pm  
Just got back from the match, not read what everyone else has posted but here is my 2p worth.

First 20 - 30 minutes we where woeful. Dropped balls and penalties from Makinson, Manu etc just killed us.

I'd really consider not starting with Manu, he has great skills, but is far too eager to push the ball early. On a number of occasions he put us under pressure. I did not think Ashe contributed a lot, I've not seen him in recent weeks, but tonight he was pretty anonymous.

Did Perry come back on at all???

After what was a woeful start, there was a real manning up from the Saints lads, I could not pick a MOM as it was a contribution from all. We also got of help from Leeds who made some terrible errors. But we helped them earlier on so it's a fair trade.

Wellens was very good, ran through everyone, Walmsley is the future at prop and LMS as far as I could see, kept his penalty making to a minimum. Howarth is awfully slow at hooker, but he did have a hand in two of our tries so you have to give him credit for sucking in the defenders, but there were times where Leeds had 3 markers and just a dart from dummy half would have resulted in a penalty to Saints.

The 'high' shots on Bailey and Burrows where a joke, over the shoulder, but then we got one later on, on Walmsley.

A great result for us, but totally ruined my predictions for this week.

Thought St.Helens showed a lot of spirit tonight, I thought they were gone after the opening twenty minutes and some of the goal kicking didn't give me much hope but the young players stuck at it despite some heavy hits in defence from the Leeds forwards.

One thing is for sure though, Leeds are a much better team with Brett Delaney on the field.

Paul Wellens was immense.

Game completely changed when Puletua (who was great) and Walmsley came on.

Wellens was fantastic, my MoM by a distance. Howarth also played well.

Wilkin was annoying with his penalties and his kicking game wasn't great, but he was kicking off slow PTBs so if was understandable. We looked better organised with him at #7.

Perry can go now, what's the point at all? Only doing one spell again? I'd rather have Clough in over him.

Nathan Ashe? Ffs, he touched the ball at most 3 times.

That was a woeful contribution from Perry. If he's picked ahead of Clough next week I'll be fuming.

Not going to get carried away as I thought leeds were appallingly bad, but fair play to the lads for showing loads of heart. Just hope brown shows some rocks and leaves perry and lance behind for the rest of the year.

All those who have been disrespectful to wello should give him credit tonight, he may not have been in good form but he runs through brick walls for saints. Good on you wello
