don't you mean micky cack?...i watched him the other night against the giants...all he did was act as halfback and pass the ball..(then he knocked on near the giants line)...then he got took off...ive yet to see this overated hooker make a break like roby or clarke....micky cack wouldn't give roby that much room you say..no he would proball'y stick his leg out and trip him up...grossly OVERATED!......

so basically a hooker is just supposed to scoot?

now we know why u love Roby so much. Maybe you should go back and watch the win's against leeds and warrington and see how he played in a those games as he played more than 20 minutes, also those games would be a lot more representative of an ENG-AUS and not that shower u played last night or our game against huddersfield.





That was a terribly boring game it was as if there was a rule that you can't pass the ball more than twice in a set, i think Jordan Turner try was the only exciting move put on. I don't think you will face another team that will throw so little at you.

Almost perfect play-off football, albeit against terrible opposition. It's hard to judge how effective a similar performance will be next time out as Cas folded as soon as Turner scored.



The next game will be a war and I hope the lads will be ready for it.

I hope you are not trying to compare Paddy Wack with Roby because its a useless excercise. To avoid embarrassment I won,t post up Roby,s influential stats against Paddy Wacks.

He is far superior though in giving thuggish penalties away, if this is what you mean then you are correct in your post.

I thought it was a top quality performance. The kicking game from turner was top draw and also lance and Roby put some very good kicks in.



We did the basics very well. We didn't get carried away and try and over play, it was simple but very effective from all 17.



James Roby for me was a machine. He was everywhere and he showed clarke what it takes to play well in big big games.

There was only one frustrating thing and that was Mose and his run up before taking the ball. Everyone around us was saying the same thing in that he is still taking the ball up too flat.

He did have 2 carries where he was at speed and made metres, its still frustating that the team and Mose himself have not sorted this out to make him more effective.

Whilst it was a convincing victory for Saints it told us more about where Cas are than where Saints are.

Nice try but I disagree to an extent.



The first 15mins was a good arm wrestle and we came out on top. We needed that.



Second half was a breeze and yeah Cas weren't great.

The same goes for the Wigan game to a lesser extent. It was more how poor Huddersfield were than how good Wigan were, the same goes for Saints v Cas. Hard to see how good Saints and Wigan are playing when their opposition folded like a house of cards.

It was fun though, especially given our previous showing at Langtree Park.

That maybe so but I bet his average gain is up around 10m a carry when the stats come out. He had a very good game and was one of the main reasons we became so dominant in the period just before half time.

He has the potential to make 10 metres average carry but ended up with stats similar to Amor just over 8 metres. We need more "wrecking ball" from him which is mass x accelaration, if we can get him running in a similar way to the Wigan game then he will become more of a game changer, same goes for Walmsley hit them at speed.
