Why is the bottom half of our end not on sale anyone know Pretty sure it’s sold out, think we had e233 to 238 and the level directly below and they all sold pretty much on the first day |

Back to the game, having watched the NRL Grand Final I see where our love of the hanging bomb has come from, our go to kick for 2019. The kicking will be key on Saturday especially with the size of Saints pack, we need to execute our kicks better than we did against Wigan and also stick it in the corner at times, slow the game down - make it difficult for Grace and Makinson to return the ball.

Exactly what Warrington did in the Cup Final, corner balls and hem them in

A mate just sent me that, someone's doesn't know when to avoid the Mancunian Way Love it! Was hoping maybe the Trafford Centre would put some stuff up and potentially the big screens in the Printworks. I currently work at Co-op HQ in Manchester and we have a couple of huge screens in our main atrium (oo er matron!😲). Wonder if I can get someone in IT to hack in and put a good luck message on. Would defo pi$$ a few Saints fans in the building off!😂 I too work in Angel Square and know the team of people who Would do it, unfortunately you need more than a couple of days notice. |

There are more than 3 Salford fans in Angel Square?😮 Haha, unless you're the guy I was talking to on the coach to Hull earlier this season. Can't believe it's that difficult to get something on the screens.... all it shows normally is boring work related stuff, the weather forecast and the usual Northern Rail train cancellations.😂 |

Then I decided to keep it to myself 😬 But we had a perfectly good try disallowed, and Hartley nobbled Burgess straight from the kick off. So it all looks good. |

Good to see the front row getting the tries last Friday. So we can now score all across the field. Early score like at Hull would be great.
My fear is this ref, doesn't really blow much for offside at the ptb ( or as Saints call it it the 'press'). Hope he also watches Walmsley leading with his elbow, always doing it rarely pulled up. Lets hope we get the 'rub of the green' as Saints did when they knocked on scoring the winning try at their place.
Can't quite believe that we're there. Would love the type of performance when we ended Wigan's 40 game Cup winning run. Dai Young was immense that day, what a leader...he, like Hastings, believed.
Nervous, not a bit of it.

19 man squad? Must be close now 😱
Sane 17 as last week for me. I wonder if Watto might start with Flash rather than McCarthy just to get his GF experience on the pitch for those crucial opening exchanges

I wonder if Watto might start with Flash rather than McCarthy just to get his GF experience on the pitch for those crucial opening exchanges I think he uses McCarthy the same way he uses Tomkins, to soak up the initial barrage so that Flash can have more energy to attack. I’d say a strong opening will be key but we got hammered against them last time in the first 12 minutes and came back pretty strongly- it will be better for my nerves if we don’t ship 16 early points though! This team has progressed a lot since that game as well. |

We need to dominate in the forwards (easier said than done) and prevent them from getting the ball wide as much as possible. I'm worried about Regan Grace more than any other Saints player.
