Our discipline has improved immensely over the last few weeks and it will need to be good again at Saints. They will have all their assistant refs out, Lomax, Welsby, Walmsley, Percival etc all having a good chelp at the officials and the home crowd will be doing what they’re meant to do baying for every close call to go their way. We need some of the senior players to stand up and have their say early on to make sure it doesn’t become death by a thousand cuts with lots of little decisions going Saints way. We also need to play fast like we did last week and hit passes flat or slightly forward as the best teams do nowadays. Do that and I think we have the intensity to win this game. Welsby and Percival not in squad. Good news for the ref, he won’t need his ear defenders. Obviously good news for us as well, two top quality players there.

even the league table is seriously flawed because of the extra games
If all concerned are comfortable with the current structure of fixtures, and hence the resultant league table, then fine, but unless each team plays each other team the same amount of times, then in purist terms the league table has no integrity at all.

I'll judge where we are versus Saints on where we finish in the table rather than on the head to head results.
That would have been a good gauge between 1974 and 1996 Simmo, but as Saints fans will testify, you can finish 10 points in front of a rival and lose to them when it matters and you’re consigned to the category of losers. Both of our theories are ultimately out of the window until play off time, lose to Saints then and previous results and league positions become irrelevant. Yeh, fair enough OWL.And we know that better than anyone.The point I was making is that should we lose to Saints in a couple of weeks doesn't necessarily mean we are way behind them, as you had suggested.The final league table (before the play offs) would be a better gauge of that.

I think that sounds about right.

They have had their travails this season, but when it came to a “must win” game against us, it was pretty conclusive despite the final score in The Challenge Cup. If we put in a real display against them in a few weeks and make it 2 apiece I would be encouraged that we are a similar level of quality. I think head to heads do indicate levels of quality, and to go 1-3 down against any team in a season would probably be a good indicator whoever we were playing.
