Lowes


"It does concern me," he said of the capitulation. "It's something we need to look at. Our first half performances have given us a good platform to work on.

"It's not good enough. I thought we were dreadful and I've made that known in the dressing room


"If some of the guys continue in that vein, they won't be playing first team."

Noble


"You have to give credit to Castleford, no excuses, they caught us cold at the back end of the first half."


Everyone wants to start the season with a win and these are good strong arm wrestles. I thought small technical things that Castleford were a bit better than us which helped them.


"The reality is that this competition is won in October and we need some urgency and we need to get some points on the board and our season underway


To me one can see a problem and will be determined to fix it (despite having lost one fewer game than us and both games lost against Top 3 opposition), while the other continues to stick his head in the sand having just lost to last seasons basement clubs.

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

And I'm sure that is exactly what will be said to their respective players.

Get real.

Maybe Wigan should move for Jimmy Lowes. At least he would talk tough.

Probably not.
Saying that we've had two seasons of utter boredom, so I dunno!

As Rogues said, as if that is how it was put to either set of players.
