You've rode your luck for at least the last 2 weeks, it ran out today.
On top of that we were on fire all over the field, especially considering in the 2nd have we only had 2 subs.

We been lucky? If wining games is being lucky then yes we have.


You was on fire? Really? I thought we was dreadful and you was poor. Even wane said Wigan was poor.

I agree we've scraped a few wins with a bit of help from Lady Luck. Wigan played miles better than us today, their line speed was great, ours was non-existent. It's one thing that really irritates me about saints, the number of times you see our defensive line not moving up, just standing back and giving the attacking side an easy 10 metres and plenty of time and space to put moves on or kick unchallenged. Today we did it with receiving kicks as well, hardly contested their attacking kicks at all. Turners defence was particularly poor, it's never great but today it was abysmal.

Hopefully it's the wake up call we needed.

It's easy to make scapegoats of the usual suspects but I think it's unfair for some certain untouchable players to get off without criticism.

Roby has been very poor the last 3 weeks. His running from dummy half has lost it's impact and his distribution from the PTB had been the worst I've seen from him.

He always tackles and puts the effort in but it's clear he's playing below his ability.

We were down one as well, courtesy of O'Loughlin.

LMS and Turner are definately two.

LMS should be ashamed that a 18 year old prop forward out performed him. I think Brown will go with Richards over LMS for the rest of the season now imo.

Can't see Richards being fit for Monday. SOL took care of that for us.

You guys think there was much in that?

Trying to be unbiased but I didn't see a great deal in it. The lad slipped and instead of Lockers hitting him round the chest he got him a bit higher.

Seemed a genuine accident to me.

Turner a top class centre really?

He has a good back handed flick but makes way too many errors to be classed in that bracket imo. He was shocking at Cas last week and not much better today especially in defence.

He's developed from his time at Hull and might get there one day but he's a way off at the moment.

Turner had cut them out of his game almost completely last year, and only his previous reputation was stopping fans from other clubs seeing it imo - he really was top class - unfortunately after starting in a similar vein, he seems to have slipped back 18 months to the error prone liability he's been in the last month or so.

I was very skeptical when we signed him, and he completely won me over - he's now undoing all the good work. Hopefully he can turn it around sooner rather than later.

Couldn't tell at the game and fast forwarded it when watched it back.
