The refs need to clear the ruck/ ptb faster. All the laying on,wrestling and etc makes the player fight to get up.
It also makes the game slower,duller and yawning like


It may be an oversimplification, but yes, just using the 6 again for what it was brought in for would be a start

I saw Lomax indulge in a bit of petulant sledging (every side does it) on Walters. McDonnell lost his temper, ran in and ending up pressing his forehead against Lomax's. So technically a headbutt I guess. Not sure if that was what he was sent off for though. At the time I thought penalty Saints and a sin binning for McDonnell, maybe both. In truth I don’t think it impacted the result.

Sent off for throwing a punch spotted apparently by the TJ.
I couldn`t see it nor could the cameras but seems the TJ did.

What? Beating a team who had 14 players for the majority of the match, losing their 2 starting halfbacks and their star centre?

The Saints fans I spoke to after the game didn’t seem very satisfied.

The only reason they look up to you is because they chose to kneel.

Re: St Helens Home. : Sun May 28, 2023 9:25 am  
It was a great effort by your lads on Friday. When all your guys started going down I was pretty confident we’d ease into a win by 2-3 scores but the effort and commitment of your players was unreal. I’d be made up with it if I was a Leeds fan. On balance, I thought you deserved the game more than we did but that’s sport. I felt the opposite when we played you in March so it’s swings and roundabouts. Gonna be a tough road for you now with all the injuries but I hope you make the play offs, always good for an upset and keeping the teams you play honest.

On another note it’s a shame you couldn’t keep hold of Walters. He’s not perfect yet by any means but he really does have the potential to be a top, top player. Gonna be horrible seeing him play for Wigan

Cheers for those comments.
I agree both games could have gone either way.
There`s certainly a resilience in the team.
We got some bad luck with the injuries and whilst both VR decisions were marginally correct I`ve seen them go the other way even with the involvement of VR.
Like to think we will see you in the GF :PRAY:
