On Saturday i felt frustrated and angry at the team for the rubbish being dished up. No one looked bothered and ran round like headless chickens. I didn't neex any time to get over it as i could tell after 50 mins it wasn't our day. Not sure we had a plan A never mind a Plan B. Catalan absolutely deserved that win.
I really thought reviewing the semi against Saints would have helped in our preparation but god knows what game the team did look at?'"
It was very much the same when we played Catalans in the semi final, no Plan A or Plan B, but you must credit the Catalans for that. During the cup run they seemed to have a very good tactic in drawing the opposition into a down the middle type of game where the Catalan forwards are strongest, at every play the ball they had 3 players either side to stop the ball going to the edges.
Warrington did manage a 10 min spell in the first half going wide but errors by way of execution and composure let them down, they also had the last 10 mins of the game were the Catalans were hanging on and Warrington were still coming up with panic play.
For Catalans Drinkwater and HaHa were below par but Warrington struggled with Roberts, Brown, Ratchford and Clark which at 1, 6, 7 and 9 are your main pivots and 9 times out of 10 will win you the game.
