Give over will you. Sneyd plays the most basic of games and doesn't even do that consistently well. His only real contribution to that game was 1 40/20 and that was it. Totally outplayed by his opposite number. Yes other players made errors but Sneyd offered nothing in that game similar to last week. No one is crippling his career as you imply but he needs to up his game massively.
Not a snyed basher by any means but he was awful at times tonight. And one point in 2nd half he ran about 5yards back to drop off a man standing still. He should be the one getting his forwards hitting the ball at pace. To often he's happy to let our wingers take us forward then the forwards take it off dummy half and when he gets his hands on the ball he either plays you far away from the line or gives a murder ball. I olso feel if he falls on that loose ball or kicks to the left were he had 2 men in support it could of won us game. Not his fault we lost but need more direction from our 7 not just fleeting moments of brilliance with the boot.

it was tongue in cheek regarding the naysayers after he kicked a fantastic 40-20. Whatever the Saints lad did is irrespective and frankly I don't care.

Wake up, so still 9 games, I never mentioned anything about whether home or away, it's still 9 games to go before the top 4 and mrs B is writing us off as i said, WITH NINE GAMES TO GO. Go bother to learn English and when the top 4 is the top 4 and not the Super 8s!

sneyd is frustrating. In teh last 15 minutes last week he carried the ball to the line repeatedly and looked brilliant. Tonight he was awful but we're stuck with him for the foreseeable future now kelly is injured

Sneyd was poor. Also what has happened to Taylor ?

tbf to sneyd he didn't have a lot of ball to play with, saying that he wasn't great neither was Kelly, we was poor all round, thought we defended well though,
once a black and white always a black and white COYH

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the current goal is to get into the top 4 before the Super8's, which is what I'd imagine Mrs B was referring to.
Go bother to learn English - what's that all about?
Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?

Maybe it's a bit of a hangover from last week but we look incapable of stringing together 2 or 3 big games which looks likely to mean we won't do anything much. Really massive blow to lose kelly who won't be for for the semi now (4-6 weeks for a hamstring).
saints really are awful and yet they've taken 4 points from us this year. Add in 4 to les cats, 2 to leigh and 1 to wire and it makes it very unlikely we'll make the top 4 at seasons end IMO.
We're also struggling from a lack of depth in the forwards meaning players are on the field for too long and making errors due to fatigue.
radford has been pretty good with his interchanges this year but he should have brought watts and bowden back on at around 70 minutes which may have seen us sneak it.
All in though, we were gash with the ball all night
I thought our bench selection and interchanges were poor tonight Just no reason to play Griffin tonight at right centre in front of Connor.Griffins two best perfomances have been off the bench so why change? Watts is a starting prop yet plays off the bench and is switched with Taylor why?He could have started both Taylor and Watts and used Bowden off the bench for a bit of impact. Manu is now interchanged and you can see it helps his game yet Minichello ends up playing big minutes every week.This needs to be changed.
