Was a scrappy win but they happen. Worrying part I imagine for saints is 1 point win vs Wakefield a battering by Salford and a game that should have been put to bed was allowed to be blown wide open. The miss match of Farimo to the young lad on the wing was shocking. Going off form and desire (teams fighting to survive and stay in top 6)you’d imagine all the games for saints should be difficult. Think our game and the KR game should be the break for them

The style of rugby is very Bradford Bulls under Brian Noble. Big bodies pounding you into submission. Successful but boring to watch but results are what its about and it will take a good performance in a knockout game to beat them

There was speculation that the game would be moved as the Latics are at home on the Saturday. However, unless Sky moves the match to another day it will be played on the Friday.
Pretty unconvinced by Saints today, they should have dismantled Cas as they were woeful for the vast majority of the game. At 20-0 Saints of old would have gone on to put another 2-3 scores on them with ease but instead they limped home by letting in three tries which thankfully for them were all unconverted.

I agree Saints of old would have put Cas to the sword this one however are over rated and living on the past when they were superior in my opinion.

The young lad on the wing (Dan Hill ) hurt his shoulder early on i'm amazed Cas didn't target him more
