SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.

For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.

Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row

I think another pre season with potter will help as they know more about how potter wants them to play.

Sia coming in will add power and size.

Wheeler, eastmond, lomax, dixon and ahshurts all bit older and wiser to super league.

KC, Moore and roby fighting it out for hooking role.


But they got battered by younger, faster and better Wigan lads.
You'll still have seven 30+ year olds in your starting team.

You really don't know your team do you?

Meli, Maureen, Wellens and Puletua.

That's seven out of probably your starting seventeen.

Oh you've now LOST as many Grand Finals as Wigan.


:lol:



Oh and we've won more grand finals than Wigan.

What does having 7 players that are 30+ go to do with anything?

I think we should cast a special trophy just for Wigan. The Our-Average-Age-Is-Younger-Than-Your-Average-Age Award.

Bless. :SUBMISSION:

the players they are up against will be just as fit but faster and stronger.


If stains finish in top 4 next season that will be a good achievement imo.

Talking utter crap.

The age of 7 of our players being over 30 means we can't win anything!

Yes ok.

Wigan vs Leeds finals aggregate score.

Wigan 178 - 64 Leeds

Wigan wins - 6 Leeds wins - 0


I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and I am all out of bubblegum.

Don't you struggle. Don't you fight. Don't you worry, cause it's your turn tonight!

Esse quam videri.

Saints biggest loss is yet to come, the retirement of Cunningham. You've prolonged it another year rightly or wrongly but it's inevitably going to happen and the loss of his leadership and ability coupled with the loss of Long's organization and kicking game couldn't be more detrimental to a side.

The decline set in 6 years ago.

One Chanmpionship in 6 years is hardly the greatest return for the "dominant" force in Super League, and supposed Golden Generation.
