You have to remember he had been the starting centre for the Storm when we signed him so who knows
I'd be miffed if he was the highest earner but what ever he's on we've had no where near the return expected from him when we signed him
The measure of who we are is what we do with what we have

Where did i say he wasn't top earner? Iv absolutely no idea what any of the players earn.

My "radford never made him a top earner" was referring to the fact radford wasn't at cas when he was signed so had no say in what he earns.

We couldn't win last night really, unless we tonked them off the park by 50. I am happy with 6 points over Easter. Particularly with Catalan next up.
I agree but they chose to field a severely weakened team which, if not due to injuries, should not be allowed as it cheats the paying public and IMO is contrary to the spirit of the game.

Sts should be held to account for bringing the game into disrepute.
What is the point of having a squad if a coach cannot rotate the team and select who he wants to, whenever he wants to. Like it or not im sure the saints coach did nothing wrong.
Like DP last year

Think the point if we was level we wakefeild bottom off league we had wigan and wakefeild and saints and saints played under 23s a team could get religated by default .should it come down to luck what team somebody puts out when you play them .Sure all them backing saints would be first to slag them if this happened. It as benifited us this time why people think iits ok but dont make it right.

St. Helens will not be punished by the R F L for fielding a weakened squad against cas they say it is good for the game. What a load of rubbish any other team would have been fined

Thought not. I won't criticise Saints then.

Which part of it being a squad game cant you understand? If they are in the first team squad then the coach can rotate the squad as he sees fit, DP did it last year (to no avail) and we didnt cop a fine.
