Captain James Graham + More!

[Fairleigh Good!]

James Graham the scouse who hits like a house has become St Helens youngest ever captain.

He'll lead the first team into the Super League clash with Les Catalans.

Sporting Life Article

Oh yeah, it also mentions the nine debutants plus the return of the legendary Tommy Hodgkinson. Long retired from the professional game, but will want to revisit his good form from when he last played for St Helens.....back in 1994.

Now, nobody criticise anyone, there's no cheating going on afterall:sarcasm:

(Average age is well over 20, thanks to Tommy!)

I don't know really. Depends what the score is. If Tommy and the children can keep it pretty close, it will probably look alright for the French, after all they would have just beaten the league leaders and runaway favourites for the double.

But if the French trounce the kiddies and their press and fans cotton onto what has really happened, it could be pretty damaging.

Best thing about the article, aside from the sheer hilarity of Hodgkinson's return, is Anderson's admission that he tried until the last minute to get the game switched to England:lol:

The bare faced cheek of it all, really. Daniel, the best we may be, but they can't go changing the fixture list to ensure we prepare well for the Cup final can they?

On the other hand the devious Huddersfield have rested their key players for the game against Wigan.;-) (Brad Drew is out)
