Got something to discuss about RL in general? Then this is the place to post it.

Saints v Salford

Post by First Try Tickle »

Wow so many important decisions all going the way of Saints.

Knowles, Welsby and Lees could all be banned for the final, but I think they will be ok.

And when Kendal was asked why he didn’t use the video ref for the penalty try he said he didn’t think he would get there. Well send up as no try then.

Kendall was awful, stains got every decision again. Don’t think I can be bothered watching the final.

Have to say, I didn't think Lafai would have got there. But Sam Tomkins and the other pundits disagreed, so...

To be honest I’m not even sure I can be bothered watching rugby league next season at this point

We are 25 seasons into super league or something like that only 4 teams won it - in the last 17 years only 3 teams have won it - again it will be one of those 3 teams

The fact Leeds are in it just makes me want to give up on the sport they barely got over a 50% win record this year in the league and yet could be champions what’s the point of even watching the league games
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure

i said to one of my Saints friends yesterday that it wouldnt shock me if Leeds and Salford both made the final. On paper it would be Saints v Wigan, but both Leeds and Salford were carrying form and momentum into the play offs. Unfortunately, and i think we are both on the same page in regards to the play-offs, i would prefer finish top and you are champions, but the current system can reward mediocrity all season, and then put together 2-3 good games and you are champions

I’ve said this numerous times. It will be a Saints victory just so it can be 4 wins on the bounce.

But then again “Blue eyed boy Smith" may be in with a shout so Leeds can say they won it from 5th again & cement Hethringtons partnership with the RFL!

Bloody stinks the lot of it.
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan
