Joseph Suaalii should be incredible in union by the time he goes over, but the money is still pretty mental. Are they betting everything on him?
The Eastern Sydney Wallaby/Waratahs are definitely betting on him and whoever else they can chuck 3rd party money at. Eddie wants a monster back three and midfield as he transitions us from a possession based team to a field position one with a strong kick chase back 3.
Suaalli won't be the last big name signing from League.

Massive game tonight. Not even annoyed it means Saints aren’t on telly. Hoping for a draw.

Hull KR and Saints would have been a miles better choice as well.
Hull KR, Hull KR, Hull KR.
That was a good game though. lol at Warrington.
Warrington.
The Greatest Game.
Morgan Knowles is just dumb.

This Champions Cup final has been fantastic.
Sky had a poll before this game, ‘is Saints SL dynasty over’ and I scoffed but ehh maybe it is. As soon as I bought my lad a saints kit, typical.

There's no obvious reason for such a massive drop-off, so it's a bit weird that they're suddenly a bit poo. Paul Wellens can't be that useless.
I blame Jack Welsby's haircut.

James Roby has probably played a season too many but he's still good. Maybe the World Club Challenge just took it out of them and they can't catch up.
*irons the little Saints kit ready for tomorrow*
Jonny Lomax absolutely donned McDonnell

Why do Sky Sports still have a column for draws?

In case they draw?
What's going on in Wales? That's a third one jacking in just before the World Cup.
I can't find anything online but in line with the English game, I would bet that everyone is running out of money.
Webb is fucking off to France but they've ditched the rule that foreign based players can't play for the national team anyway. The other two are staying at Ospreys so it seems like a WRU problem that's causing them to quit, rather than the obvious one of the domestic game shitting the bed.
lol at New South Wales in their crap 'jumper'.
The other two could conceivably have been told they wouldn't be included but Webb is an odd one, probably second choice and never played at the WC before. Could have been given a massive wedge by his new club to retire but given it's the WRU it could also be a complete shambles behind the scenes.
And now they're unnecessarily burning players they drop from the squad, is Warren Gatland on a revenge spree or something.

Can’t help but root for him.
Remember when we talked about someone doubling down on their beliefs, no matter how dastardly? I guess we got one.
Plus fuck Josh Charnley.

Yeah the fact both times were against Leigh is pretty funny. Like he was saving it up.
No idea how Warrington keep coming up with new ways to be shit.
Just stumbled across Origin 2. Since when have they done Brett Stewart THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY style intros? Painfully American.
The Mona Vale Raiders?
Cairns Kangaroos and Sarina Crocodiles.
Billy Slater, Innisfail Bogans.
I hated it when rugby league introduced nicknames for all the teams. When I was a kid it was Saints vs Warrington, not Warrington WOLVES. I was very happy that Saints just kept Saints and not like the St. Helens Saints or whatever. I presume that coincided with it becoming the Super League though, so it's not all bad.
Halifax will always be the Blue Sox in my mind, and Wakefield are Wildcats.
I'm a twit
'Halifax Blue Sox' was the worst name of the lot. Like they turned up late to the shit American-style nickname meeting and got stuck with it.
lol at New South Wales again.
Glad I had other things to do rather than follow what happened there.
They were well and truly burgled last year, but this series has all been on 'Freddie' being an idiot and picking people out of form or injured. They should arguably be looking at six series wins in a row by now, or five in six if you account for Wayne Bennett being inevitable, but the man is a complete and utter wally.
Just seen the Queensland try just before half time.
Pass that needed to be qualified as 'flat' [it's a line ball!] by the stuttering commentator and then just a full on forward pass to put the guy away. Same old. New South Wales looked like they couldn't finish for shit, but they seem to have half their team injured [or not picked?]. Could have done with Addo-Carr on that interception breakaway.
As if he missed that. Saints could do with a bit of a clear out.
Jonny Lomax knew that was gonna happen with his whole ‘hang on calm down we’re still losing’ after the try.
I'm a twit
Some drop goal.
I've been to Wembley twice. England vs New Zealand in 2013 (lost 20-18) and Rovers vs Leeds in 2015 (lost 50-0). Third time...
Fifty nil

Wello not holding back when talking about John Asiata being a shit player.
I'm a twit
Daryl Clark.
No fucking way.
I'm a twit
That's about as good a James Roby replacement as they could have got.
Indeed.
I had high hopes for Aaron Smith, but he seems to have disappeared into oblivion.

France warming up for their home World Cup in style.

Ali Price is fucking dreadful. No idea how he’s always starting games
Referee is an utter bellend

3/1 for France to win the WC seems decent value
This could get ugly v quickly. Scotland are lovely to watch at times but defensively they’re gonna get battered by any half decent team

Lewis.My train to London was cancelled so I ended up getting a lift with a pure ITV2 couple who were on their way to London for her birthday, so got one of their dads to come and pick us up and we split the petrol money. Being driven by a bloke on his phone half the time with the music blaring was probably better than the train, but still. It looked like a pretty crap match from where I was sitting (only about a dozen seats away from [in]famous retard Shandy Bass), but that might have just been the on-going seethe at Rovers conspiring to balls every opportunity up. I'm not going to re-watch it to find out either way so oh well.
That's three matches at Wembley, and four matches in London - all defeats. I might skip the next one.
