Also had a win ratio of 70% with Saints!

So do most Saints coaches if not better. First coach in a while to win nothing with them. He did nothing for Saints at all.

Seriously did you see Bradford? They could not string two passes together. Set after set they ran from dummy half or one pass from dummy half. It was utterly boring, genuine 5 drives and a kick.

The first since pre-McRae wasn't he?

Can't see anything but FC to end up 7th now, Cas look shot and you'll have too much for both them and Crusaders.
The other place is up for grabs and could go down to that last game.

I agree about Cas, think they will struggle to get another point. As for Crusaders they are a different kettle of fish, players are playing for jobs at other SL clubs so wont be a pushover plus we have a tendency (not so much this season) to put in poor performances against the poorer teams.

Think I'd rather finish 8th than 7th and get an away trip to Catalans, Huddersfield or Saints than go to Leeds, who've hit some form and we know about our record there!

And then Cas have the two Hull clubs for the last two of their games.It should be very intresting three teams fighting for the last two spots.
