Most Saints fans need a taxi to help them find the ground looking at the crowds they get!!
Saints are simply not doing the simple things that win Rugby League matches. No go forward, poor ball control, inability to build pressue, lack of discipline and less enthusiasm than the opposition - until they sort these things out they will struggle to beat the better sides in the competetion.
I think what we are seeing is that Saints had a flying start to the season because, of the 'big' clubs, they had the most continuity going into the season. Bradford and Leeds had a big turnover in personell and Hull, having lost Shaun Mcrae last year - werent at their best. These sides are getting going now and have now settled as teams.
Its a wide open competition and my pick is that Leeds will be the strongest in the end and may just win Superleague.
Sadly though, its unlikely to be Wigan!!
