But we are probably playing around 12 International players and one state of origin player tomorrow with a couple of kids who have played nearly every game this season against the likes of Catalan and Warrington.

Other teams fans are just jealous of St Helens. Don’t rise to it.

Toulouse scoring more than a point a minute so far...

They are doing well at the moment giving Saints a taste of there own medicine. Sounds as though discipline and kicking game poor so far from Saints, Toulouse not allowing them to get into their stride.

Toulouse win. Not dodgy at all.

Re: Toulouse v Saints : Sat Mar 19, 2022 6:53 pm  

Remind me again how saints have the best squad in the league and can rest players etc.

Every weak team they play gets beat.

I called it when I heard what they were planning to do. I'm not suggesting they're deliberately losing to promoted expansion teams but they're definitely not approaching them as normal games. This won't affect Saints season and it's great for the game for TO to get off the mark and not go the season without a win.

We didn’t rest players and we didn’t even play as though it was going to be an easy game. Toulouse played very well and just let Saints come up with errors and bad options, the few chances Toulouse had they scored points and Saints didn’t.
The Saints players now at the airport with their tails between their legs, congrats to Toulouse done what other teams have failed to do so far.

suppose stains deserve the right to play a weakened team as like you say it shouldn't effect their season, as for the clubs at the bottom its up to them to turn their season around

personally I don't give toss what you do but it would be funny if the RFL fine you for it

Re: Toulouse v Saints : Sat Mar 19, 2022 8:21 pm  

Rest players, injured, whatever....as soon as you take a few of your first choice 17 out you lose.

They'd better hope the injuries aren't genuine
