You are not better than us just because you won a knockout game. However I will admit the gap is closing and closing quicker with all the disruption we have had this season to key players - Dodd season ender in April, Hopoate barely played, Makinson a month, Percival 3 months, Grace 4 months, Lomax playing through a bad injury, Matautia 2 months, LMS a month. The list goes on and that's without the suspensions. For us still to be 4 points clear at the top is a testament to our resilience and competitive nature.

If you split the 3 games we've played this season against you and split it into minutes, how many would you say of those that you were the better team? I'd give you 20 mins on Good Friday, 40 in the semi final and 30 at Magic. That's a lot of minutes where we were dominant across the 3 games. That's 150 mins for us and 90 mins for you.

Of course that's just my opinion.

Having just watched it back I think the yellow was correct to be fair.

Stu - this site won’t let me quote you again! I thought the lad played well last night, I maybe wrong and if I am I will hold my hand up, as always. For what it is worth, I think Catalans have gone backwards fast, they have no attacking threat. They had enough possession and territory to put Saints to the sword. Twelve months ago, with Tomkins et al in the team, it would have been a different result. I think the top four is now settled, only the pecking order to be sorted out.

Stu - by the way, which persona are you identifying by today?

I’ve always been Stu M on here but for some reason you quoted The Reaper on here thinking it was me….

You’ve done similar before with another poster I think but I’ve never changed my name on here.

Fair enough Stu, somebody else mentioned that and given that you didn’t correct them at the time (I don’t think you did anyway), I took it to be true.
