Interesting game this. Hull will be upbeat after the derby win and I think I read that no team has got within 12 points of Saints this year then gone on to win their next game.

I think this is the week that changes though!

Give a big shout out to whoever posted that on RedVee, nicely done

Plenty to be cheerful about after that game. Bevan's 7 sensational tries, Fields 5 assists and 2 tries, a full lengther and a backed up try which was possibly the best of the day.

Plus Smith's stunning goalkicking accuracy. He must have nailed at least 4 from the touchline from memory.

Great to see them go for blood instead of switching off, could've had another 20 points on the board with a bit of luck

Great stuff. Wasn't so long ago that French 'wasn't a winger'. Well, he's not doing too bad, is he?

Like most fans, I imagine, I was thinking, we've just got to keep both of them!

Bit disappointed with the crowd on a warm Friday evening.

I’ve been critical of fields link up play but he was superb at it today.

We’ve witnessed history tonight guys. Was simply brilliant to watch.

He’s got the super league record but we always have that * next to it that he only played 60 minutes.


I’m cool with whatever happens with French next year, obviously I’d love him to stay. But if he got a good NRL deal I’d be made up for him, seems a great guy, I briefly met him a few weeks ago and he was a class act.

Let the media keep talking Saints up. We have the cup in the bag, are enjoying 2 superstars put on a show every week, and we’ll be a tough team to beat come playoff time.

Loving this year.

Don’t be daft



He wouldn’t even make the reserves at Saints

Don’t think many said he wasn’t a winger.

Quite a few said he wasn’t a half but can’t remember many saying he wasn’t a winger.

Speaking of those on the wrong side of Billinge Hill, bet Matautia is wishing he'd took the one match ban

They set the precedent on it a couple of weeks ago with the Halifax players ban of 8 games. There isn’t any reason why it won’t be that.
