That win was all about the effort of the players though Danny Ward can take credit for building such a determined team.

Behind the sticks like most. Having just had chance to watch the re play, the fact he was pulling the leg sideways as well as up is the action that probably got the VR looking again,

So blinkered towards referee's even the Sky team said it was deliberate roll and Bird should have been penilised. I am sure you only side with the referees to wind everybody up.

What a hard fought game! yes tense at times, but the effort can't be faulted we completely got under their skins. Leeds is so important now, we can beat them at our last home game.
Well played London, regardless of what happens in the next few games you have done yourselves and your supporters proud. I'll be totally honest and like many more never expected the level of performance you have put in this season.
SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row Saints have five in a row
Get real, olsi had his leg up in the air and pulling sideways as in spreading his legs it's like a chicken wing tackle, why did bird dive forward to stop an inguinal ligament injury. Not backing the refs am looking at what happened, telling point what olsi didnt complain he knew it was poor. If yr Ginny pull the foot dont pull sideways its dangerpus
Was in the stand behind the sticks on the right hand side looking towards the big screen, sat with catalans fans. Yellow card aside, it was good to be in catalans again and winning, twice in a season out there is some going. Let's hope next season we are debating the same ref issues against em eh! Still hoping we can stay up, Toulouse pull it out of the bag in championship playoffs and then see how committed Toronto are to the game. Be interesting how the RFL react to that scenario

Olsi didn't complain? Apart from openly stating he dived on twitter. You're usual barometer is player didn't complain but on this occasion he did and quite publicly therefore I suggest you get real, even the commentary noted the dive. Bird tucked his head and did a forward roll. Have you seen a replay or are you just being obtuse as usual?
