Well, if it helps Wrench lives a few doors down from me on Maudlin St and he has literally just left in his car as I was leaving.

Not sure if that confirms 18th man etc

He's a lovely neighbour though.

If that turns out to be true and Wrench isn't injured then that is the final straw for me. Minikin played himself out of contention against Hull and should only be considered if there were only 17 fit players.

If true I know what he's thinking but yet again it's dull, predictable, cowardly coaching.

What is the rationale for playing Minikin over Wrench?

Well I was hoping Wrench would be picked and then I would be fuming at the fact I couldn’t be fuming…but now I am actually fuming. Sod off Powell.

Re: Squad for Saints : Fri Jul 07, 2023 5:22 pm  

I'm not saying our other centre options have been good but I think wrench has been pretty poor since he came in to the side. I'm not sure I think he's much good to be honest. That said mata'utia is absolutely awful.

Re: Squad for Saints : Fri Jul 07, 2023 5:22 pm  

Must presume Daryl gets a better pay off if he's sacked rather than mutual agreement...as can only see one outcome now... Maybe Connors a bad apple... And told Powell he would like coaching to win

It’s a nice hot evening.
Good chance for the lads to sweat all the Ale out
