He’s costing us tries.
Spilled an easy take under no pressure whatsoever.
In complete no-man’s land for the try they flicked back. Down to laziness, as soon as the ball moved back on the inside he literally stood still and watched.
At fault for the next try allowing a 40-20 to roll slowly into touch.
He’s not a full-back and never has been.

Backfired as this on Powell.
Should have brought a fullback in instead of bit players who we’ve sent on loan.

His hands are tied until Hardaker’s situation is confirmed though.
I’d be on the phone to Leeds about Golding on Monday though.

Ben is having a bad game, no doubt, but the whole team look shattered!!
We have had 1 decent friendly and that is just not enough.

Ino its the 1st game off the season but if this is a reflection of how we are going to play we need to drasticly change.players looks shatterd and disintrested.going down minikins wing alot where him and webbo arnt communicating with each other...very poor 1st half and carnt see it getting better for season at this

got to guess sts will get at least 1 more try meaning we need at least 5.....be lucky to get 1.....cannot see how as our fullback is crapping himself....at least milner can hold is head up....need 16 more like him.

If his hands are tied how can we bring Golding in.

Because he can’t sign a replacement on a permanent basis. If Golding isn’t playing at Leeds, they might allow him to join us on loan to keep his fitness levels up.
Unlikely that they’d help us out, but it’s got to be worth asking!

saints try. Least it took them 15 mins to score.

McMekeen utter garbage.....

Yayyyyyyy

Mcshane try
Gale goal

lots of questions need answering.....this is the worst we have looked since dp took over.....sts dont even need 13 on the pitch...utter utter garbage
