Well played saints can't believe i actually wanted them to beat the aussies but they the aussies are so arrogant it felt justified today but only today haha
I felt that saints would win I love a bit of aussie skill in a player,I love seeing British sides shutting them up by beating them,doesn't happen to often sadly

I had a feeling they’d do it because it just feels like it’s a game they’ve built towards for 5 years, whereas the other team clearly see their own league as the club pinnacle and that’s really not to take anything away from Saints. They were too good for them.
Credit to you and the others who have been gracious with your praise even though you’ll have wanted us to lose.
I just wanted us to be competitive today and if I’m completely honest I thought a win was beyond us. They rarely lose at home and there’s a reason for that.
Welsby was just Welsby. Unfortunately for us it now makes him more sought after. It’s also one in the eye for those who say he hasn’t performed on the big stage as yet.
However special mentions for Percival and Wingfield who were superb and Sironen had his best game for us so far. He was immense.
I thought we got some poor calls in that last 20, the forward pass disallowed try and a couple of others. To win it in the manner we did after conceding in the last minute was superb. Unbelievable character shown and I’m so proud.

Again, fair play to all those wishing us well.
Think Saints actually deserve to be paying top sides much more regularly. Bar Saints the standard of SL has never been worse imho…..
He’ll want the cup and the 5inarow but it would be cool if Roby retired immediately.
What a performance on the biggest stage. Guarantees the perfect ending.
RICHARDS IS SUPERMAN!!!!

Take that comment back please Stu, I wanted Saints to win. Yes, I want us to give you a good hiding when we play you, but I want any SL team to beat the Aussies. What spoiled it for me today was reading that Wigan had congratulated Saints, on there website, before I had watched the recording!

Congratulations from me too Stu. I'm happy for yourself, FTV, Yellow Giraffe and all the other good Saints fans and posters. Shame we'll have to suffer the fools too but that doesn't, and shouldn't, take away from Wigan fans offering their congratulations. You've done the British game proud today.
One final note: if the Aussies are playing the "first game" card they need to suck it up and admit they were well beaten. No one made them go into the game without adequate prep. If truth be told it was the usual Aussie arrogance and it's good to see it shoved back down their throats.

No worries. Just seen that message now on Twitter, nice gesture. At least now we can get the domestic rivalry back and that Wigan v Saints thread can come back to life

Cheers. The Aussies do know how to get under people’s skin. I loved Walmsley and Lomax giving it to Phil Gould on social media. I’m pretty sure his comments would’ve been pinned up somewhere and formed part of the team talk
