Ok not wanting to turn this into a Saints thread but

Turner first then Lomax

Tries 1 - 0
Assists 0 - 1
tackles 18 - 3
Missed T 2 - 2
Busts 2 - 5
Carries 10 - 17
Meters 59 - 180
Average M 5.9 - 10.59
Clean Breaks 1 - 2
Errors 0- 1
Offloads 2 - 1

To me that puts Lomax ahead as the performer in that match on stats alone.

Turner 2 missed tackles? No chance those stats are accurate.

Looking forward to this one. We desperately need a win in this one to validate everything we did over easter. We looked soft and unmotivated against Wigan and we rested most of our best players against Widnes. That was all with this game in mind, so we need to back that up to stop our bubble from well and truly bursting! I do worry that we're a little of the boil at the moment though, even without easter coming into play. I fear Leeds will win, as they usually do when it matters

That's where I was coming from with his defence was better.

I can't really push it though, as the same stats people had Briscoe down as 4 errors on Monday.

will the SS be all ticket or will I be alright paying on the gate on sat?

Re: Saints on Saturday : Thu Apr 24, 2014 11:15 am  

Really don't know about this one, the fact that Saints really took their foot off the gas over Easter frightens me a little. It's as if they were prepared to drop a position or two in readiness for Saturday.

If we start the game like we did against Salford it'll be over before half time. I think we're stronger in the 3/4's so that's where we should channel our energies. If Amor's playing they'll match us in the forwards and they've enough quality in their halves to cause serious damage, especially Walsh.

Toughest game of the season so far IMO.

There appears to be a bit of a buzz and feeling of genuine anticipation surrounding this CC game which may indicate the possibility of registering a rare five-figure attendance for an event which isn't covered by a season ticket, cheap offers and free tickets.

I dunno, having an extra game hasn't done us a lot of harm going into big games against Saints in the past.....

I'm not interested in it. Being to all games this year but the challenge cup. Really don't care win or lose this week. Don't get me wrong, always want Leeds to win, but won't be as disappointed if we lose Saturday as I was other week against them.
