Saints were excellent with the ball in spells but both defences struggled in the first half. We managed to sort ours out at half time but you guys didn't and seemed to lose intensity in the second half.
Sean O'Loughlin along with Farrell and Bateman were the difference I thought. Those three have incredible engines and in high intensity games in warm conditions like today they're worth their weight in gold. On the other end of the scale I thought you carried a couple of players and in particular big Masoe. He's a bit of a liability on games of that pace. I've never seen a guy down on his Knees as much in all my years watching the game. In the plus side I thought Lomax was tremendous and you can tell Walsh is all class. The best overseas half in the league since Trent Barrett.
I agree with all that and basically what I've posted in terms of how the game went.
Both teams was pretty shocking in defence in the first half and I always thought who sorted the defence out would win and could run away with it.
Lomax was excellent as was Walsh.
