Garry Schofield thinks that with players to come back from injury, plus the fact they've been winning without being at their best, shows that you can't rule out St. Helens going to the split without defeat. What do you think?

One thing about GS great player that he was, he's rarely right about anything he says.
It would be a disaster for one club to dominate the SL. Crowds would tumble, sponsors would head for the hills, Gary Hethrington would throw himself into the Aire. We'd have allegations of salary cap fixing and Jon Wilkins would be strutting around his coffee shop wearing a new fur coat and specially made crown.
Suppose there's a chance but let's just hope Gary is wrong again.

These threads always crop up the week that the team in question loses it's first game.

So let me just say in advance - Well done Hull KR

With ref calls like these, who knows??

Couple of DISGRACEFUL forward passes ignored.

Keep them coming Schoey

Two try's from forward passes! The last try had 2 in one play! So nearly absolutely robbed! Justice him missing the kick.

Saints' ridiculously average back line was exposed tonight. They battered Rovers in the forwards, Walmsley was superb, however Rovers defended well, but Saints offered zero threat in the Rovers 20.

Credit to Rovers, it would've been a disgrace had Saints got anything out of the game.

Only two front rowers available with Bailey leaving the club, Allgood suspended, Weyman having to retire and Burke injured. So a very resilient performance.

Our backline started with Percival and Lomax missing which probably didn't help them looking average. Lomax particularly makes a lot of space for Turner.

Flanagan in attack handicapped us a bit in their 20, we started the match aiming to get at Albert Kelly when we were attacking as much as possible - in the first half there was 1 set where he had to make 4 tackles, and another set where he ended up defending on the wing. However, as our left second row (either Flash or LMS) didn't look like breaking tackles close to the line, we ended up setting up more of our backline plays to the right, at Campese who is a much better defender. We missed Greenwood here a lot more than was mentioned on Sky IMO.

However, our first up contact was pretty awful all night. There was a few sets where we got off our line and tackled well but there were far too many misses or passive tackles which gave KR a quick play the ball, which made them very tough to live with.

On the topic of Child, obviously there was the two obvious forward passes late in the game which were awful decisions, but there was also him absolutely bottling a sending off. Some tackles there is doubt about whether there should have been a card or not, but over the last few years, the offence most likely to be red-carded is seemingly a shoulder charge to the head, particularly when late. I don't see what changed tonight.

I noticed the players,once again, played a perfect game thank goodness. Not a single error from any of them, always down to the match officials especially when an open line is beckoning with a small pass.
