| Yeh the left passing does make us a tad predictable. Something for Lomax and Gaskell to work on in the off season.
Shenton is probably just really bored.

I would probably change the word struggling for frustrated. This season I can,t recall any game where he has received Quality Ball, there dos,nt seem to be any set plays involving Shenton either. Most of this can be all down to our season long half back disruption.
I,m sure when saints start to fire on all cylinders (!!!!!) we will see Shenton's quality come through. If we are lucky, we might see some combinations with Pyrce and Shenton, but I'm not holding my breath.

For me at the moment he really seems to be getting the basics wrong though, quality players do not need quality service. I was really hoping Wigan would sign him from Cas but from what I have seen thus far more than happy we have not.

It was the "quality players do not need quality service" bit. Think you got off lightly from SAINTSFAN just then.

i'd agree with jonh to be honest. He's been disapointing, yes hes not had amazing service, but that never stopped Gidley or Lyon. Yes we've been spoilt with true world class centres, but he knew the boots he was filling when he came here

And, er, who did they have playing around them? Lomaskell? Andrew Dixon? Matty Ashurst? Purlease! No comparison.

You can't praise Lomax and Gaskell in one hand and then use them as an explanation for shentons bad performances in another

Oh yes I can.
Know why?
They are inexperienced. Lyon et al had experience all around them.

so you are saying that they are no good? I'd have to disagree, in my opinion they are playing better together than eastmond and pryce were last year, its the bench were we are shocking, and in that, i completely agree that ashurst and dixon are never superleague players, and certainly not good enough to wear the V
