    Just watching the Saints/Wakefield match on Sky, and while I agree with the commentators about some poor referreeing decisions, they're giving out about ones that aren't wrong. They don't seem to take into account whether or not someone is playing at the ball. Also didn't think there was too much wrong with Wakefield's first try in the second half, looked like a hand-off and his hand slipped.
    Great match so far though.

    I'm absolutely ****ing delighted to see Saints miss that kick. If someone wants to waste two minutes at the end taking a kick to level a match then they're playing the wrong ****in sport.

    Saints got exactly what they deserved - absolutely nothing! Alibert was giving them everything then they score after Cunningham hits Stosic in the eye - no doubt RFL when turn a blind eye to it!

    Missed bits and pieces of the second half thanks to the da so didn't see that bit, but there were a lot of niggly bits, intentional and unintentional from both sides.

    The cats did everything in their power to lose it though. I don't think they put together a full set of five in the last 15 minutes (Knock ons, penalties, kicks out on the full etc)

    They were looking rocky too after Brough's kick went out on the full, another thing that makes Saints' decision all the more mystifying.

    Hoping for an end to Quins slide down the league and a win against our "local" rivals.

    Oh, well, another defeat, but the young lads can be proud of themselves. Big danger we will miss out on the play off's this year unless we can get a few back. I think regardless of how we finish this year, its great how many of our English lads have signed on for at least another year.
