The lack of quality in simple line defence was horrific to watch. It was far below the standard that I currently expect to see from Saints, Leeds or even Wigan.

Yes but those teams rarely play on hard fast pitches against the players they were up against in the World Cup. In all the games they had problems in gaining ground and their kicking game was generally mediocre. If you do not get good forward momentum and put pressure on the team with the kick you will suffer.

It was rubbish against PNG. Whereas I didn't think we had the team to win the world cup, you can't tell me the team was playing to anywhere near its potential.

so whats the news
winning like never before. decoys. mouse traps. chicken wings. lollie pops. shepperds. the crusher. grapples. big league. In 1935 The Dragon Slayers as they were known defeated Canterbury bulldogs 91-6, which is still the biggest win in the Club's History. In 1907, the St George district had a club in the Sydney rugby union competition. Interestingly, the team's area was referred to as the 'Illawarra suburbs'. A resolution to form a St George rugby league club was made at a local meeting held in early 1908, but the movement faltered and collapsed. St George, wearing the district colours of red and white, played in the NSWRL's Third Grade competition in 1910, and formed a President's Cup team in 1911. References were found at the time to district teams being called 'The Saints'.the perfect 11
