Unfortunately, I couldn't make it to the game due to Mrs Janus. She had another
Ah well - I was glad to get that off my chest. Now - as far as the game went, Saints were
HUGH'S STAR MAN AWARD
HUGH'S ARSEHOLE AWARD
We just can't seem to shake off this fear of Wigan in a major final, they always seemed to
As usual I cant go without mentioning my special little friend Danny "BLOODY" Arnold,
That's all for now folks, Mrs Janus is shouting for me to apply her ointment again, so on with the marigolds ……………………….Toodle pip.
haemorrhoid operation this week and I had to stay behind to help rub the ointment in.
But I did manage to catch the game on TV and see all the horrific mistakes made by
that man Cummins. The way I see it, Wigan's last two tries were the results of
forward passes and should never have been allowed, and the occasion when Karle
Hammond was penalised for a high tackle for tickling the guy in the ribs was
downright disgraceful - so, that means that Wigan should have 14 points removed -
thus making Saints the winners by 20 points to 19. Fair enough wouldn't you
say……..but then again …….in an ideal world ….Sadfish would have good looks

completely out-played by a better team.
They tackled well - we didn't
They kept hold of the ball - we dropped it
Their coach hasn't got a moustache ( as Mr Cummins hasn't) - our coach has a whopper
of one - coincidence??? I think not.
Man Of The Match for me was split between Andy "gormless looking get" Farrel and
Jason "Billy Biz" Robinson, with Saints Man Of The Match probably going to
Kieron Cunningham for non-stop effort throughout the second half, followed (in
spurts) by Karle Hammond (although he made a couple of defensive gaffs), and
Apollo Perelini who had a strong forward running game.
For the second week running - goes to Paul Newlove, who just doesn't seem to get it
together when it really counts - and as for the high tackle - well maybe he does want
to miss that plane journey (due to a fear of flying) on Monday. As a close second
there are too many names to mention, too many dropped balls, too many missed
tackles etc. etc….
have an extra edge over us today in all departments, especially confidence in their
own ability.
who had his usual game, dropping balls and failing to stop the opposition, and costing
us points as usual. A special mention must go to Lee Hanson (I think) who sat on Danny's head at one point in the game, but unfortunately, he started breathing again a few
seconds later. THIS PRICK MUST NEVER BE ALLOWED TO PLAY FOR ST
HELENS RLFC AGAIN.
