Also it's a bit strange playing Wakefield again straight after a win.
Spot on, great result tonight but I just hope we can crack on from here. We've beaten all 3 of the top 3 teams from last year, so we need to push up the table and into the playoffs and hopefully do it again.
Wish we'd have taken more fans tonight though, although it was rarely quiet in the middle of the stand

Indeed.
Being on TV looking like a scarred kid with hood over my head made me laugh.
Give we were 13th and never win at Saints anyway, this probably ranks as one of the best games i've been to. So few fans, but we made one hell of a night of it.

I'll be honest, I can't work out the team or the coach after seeing some of the performances. I was pro macca at the start but have moved closer to the NT of late.
What's changed when we've beat Leeds and Saints? is it just the lads managing to raise the game for long term rivals? The Bulls second half performance suggests not to me, as the heads would normally stay down
The Hood & Macca exchange at the end said a lot too

...as did watching Macca having a chat with Platt as they walked off, when he was clearly giving encouragement and explaining things, and Platt was clearly listening.
...as did the post-match interviews with Semi, Lynch, Rinaldi and Macca.
...as did the comments after in the studio, where it was being expressly pointed out that the fans will never know what happens in the dressing room, and what injuries players are playing with. That did not come out of fresh air.
That team was playing for each other, and for the coach.

This is very true. Some players can be patched up nursing injuries that most of us would be signed off long term sick with
