Sorry how the hell do you get that nonsense. I've pointed out the obvious. He seems completely at sea in this game and has been utterly ineffective. How that translates to "don't like" seems a bizarre comment and unusually stupid from you.

Jalibert needs to stick to what he does best. RUNNING. Leave the kicking to Lucu.

Ah, that's a shame.
Still, can you lads slag Pollock off some more? I seem to recall a lot of "Pollock's having a quiet game" before he scored against Leinster.

Now that is red. Unless you are a Scottish ref.

Would have been brought back for the forward pass even if Coles didn't get pinged.
I sincerely hope he has a great game. Absolute breath of fresh air and great prospect. How ever, in this particular game, he is not yet performing.sockwithaticket wrote: Sat May 24, 2025 2:56 pm Ah, that's a shame.

It's not the referees
Oh cmon. If that was red then 2 UBB players should already be off.

There is a lot on his shoulders, which is why there is expectation. How often has he played 8, because I don't see him as one.SaintK wrote: Sat May 24, 2025 2:57 pmNot sure he’s at sea but not as prominent as usualBlackmac wrote: Sat May 24, 2025 2:50 pmSorry how the hell do you get that nonsense.

15 v 13 and kick the ball away? You deserve to lose when you do that.
Occasionally. There by necessity, he's not an 8.Blackmac wrote: Sat May 24, 2025 3:00 pmThere is a lot on his shoulders, which is why there is expectation.

That was a poor clearance kick from Smith.
Big turnover from Pollock.

Great turnover from Pollock but then he clearly should be pinged for rolling twice on the ball.
Under pressure Smith is folding like a cheap pack of cards.sockwithaticket wrote: Sat May 24, 2025 3:02 pm That was a poor clearance kick from Smith.

Ah fuck off, very few Saints players are playing well, not just Pollock. It's really weird how everyone is singling him out.ASMO wrote: Sat May 24, 2025 3:03 pmUnder pressure he is folding like a cheap pack of cards.sockwithaticket wrote: Sat May 24, 2025 3:02 pm That was a poor clearance kick from Smith.

2). Knows it.
3). English.
Definitely. I haven't paid attention to the team. Why is he playing 8 as opposed to Coles who seems more suited.
