Not tonight it wasn't! Lots and lots of work to do in defence, especially for a few players. Laffranchi, Soliola, Meli (the latter two, no surprises there!).
We really did miss James Graham defensively.
Well, in all respects really.
But it was an interesting game. And an interesting take on 'sell out' as well! The latter is nothing new for Saints mind, since a sell out is rarely a sell out when it's Saints.

I thought it as a total shocking display tonight, I know it's a friendly game and don't mean anything but what the hell have we been practicing in ore season training?
The attack was poor, very slow hands and one man rugby.
The defence was terrible and I was shocked at the ease they opened us up at times.
The kicking game was worst I've seen by a super league club, lomax and lance don't look like natural kickers.
I thought Gaskell improved us a hell of a lot when he moved to stand off. He'd be my first name on the sheet in the halves as he's a natural halfback who has a kicking game.
Foster = new Meli on kicks.
