  Last I looked, they were sitting at the top of the table. I thought both the Broncos and Dragons were great this afternoon.
  If the Broncos play like that i two weeks time we will be beaten by plenty.

    I'm not saying Saints are heading for the wooden spoon, but they fact remains that over the past month Saints have not only struggled to score tries, but to even make line-breaks. Both teams today had very good defence but both seemed lost for ideas for attacking options. I do agree that Bronco's would lap us at the moment but we are 10th.
    Do you really think Saints looked that great? Cause all my Saints mates even said they were very poor in attack. I don't think you'll even get Bennett saying they were 'great' today.

  Yeah I thought they were only allowed to play as well as the Broncos let them. It seemed like the Broncos had the blueprints to the Saints gameplan.

    Yep, that's my point, over the past month teams have figured out Saints. They really only have 3 set plays and great defence. If Saints play from in front they usually win as they squeeze teams out of games with great defence and strong kick chase, but if they play from behind they don't seem to have the firepower to dig themselves out of it. They are still one of the top teams but on form over last month they aren't in top 4 teams. Same thing happened to them last year.
