| Plenty of positives last night.
Our defensive structures are very sound, we gave Leeds a tonne of ball and still nearly came away with the spoils. We ended up with two backrowers at centre & wing so of course our attack wasn't going to be cutting edge stuff but we've plenty of strike coming back in that respect with Bridge, Ratchford, Hodgson, Monas, even Solomona.
The 'younger' players are all standing up, Riley, Hill, Cooper, McCarthy etc. It's some of the established players that need to click a gear, currently Carvell and P.Wood are undeserving of their places. I'll throw Joel Monaghan in too, I'm not really seeing a test back in him, I just don't think he carries enough threat to me. He wouldn't fear me, apart from maybe 10 out.
Not so much for the dropped ball, but I reckon that's our best performance this season, we were better last night than when we beat Huddersfield, we just played a good team, they we're 8 points better than us, take away Myler's brainfart they were a gaol better. I reckon with the playing ranks back at full strength we've an extra try or two in us so I wouldn't be too concerned.
I really don't think we need to panic. Tighten up 10% with the ball, get one or two bodies back on the field, not that the ones there are poor, just that the ones coming back you that extra something. The people we're missing are the ones that seperate good teams from great teams, who have the special plays in them, without them we're a good team, no more.
Last night's performance would have beaten anyone else in SL, it nearly was good enough for Leeds. Throw in that we conspired against ourselves, no panic.

| Positives:
Chris Hill, Chris Riley, Steffan Ratchford in spells + our goaline defence in the main which looked strong, obviously a couple of individual errors cost us..
Negatives:
Too many to mention, lets just say when we don't have Michael Monaghan we seem to lack direction and organisation. Richie Myler seriously needs to up his game especially against the stronger sides, when Lee Briers isn't quite on his game we need Myler to be asking some questions instead of standing back and hoping someone else can do it.

| I thought there were a few positives to last night's game.
Firstly, Leeds had enough possession to win that game by 30+, but our defence was once again, excellent for large parts of the game. We also looked like scoring almost every time we were near the Leeds line (unfortunately, not too often)! Chris Hill was once again excellent and I think he's got a really bright future.
We have, however, been giving away far too much possession to teams this season. I also thought the last tackle options were fairly poor last night. Leeds did a great job on closing down Briers and Myler had a poor game. Still, that should improve when Monaghan and Hodgson come back into the team.

The old winger conundrum again......Seems to me that most wingers can't win with whatever they do.
Kevin Penny, major threat with ball in hand, dire in defence.....Joel Monas, steady and reliable, though limited threat in attack, sound defensively.
What do you do??....A combination of the two would be the perfect Rugby League winger, unfortunately, the world isn't perfect.
Personally, I think Joel has a touch of the Fa'Filli's in him.....He needs a top class centre to make him look better - Blythe, though a good, reliable player, isn't a winger's centre, he's the battering ram type, who will only throw desparate passes to his outside partner and that showed last night.
Joel looks better outside Bridge, though even he isn't upto Gleeson's class, who made Henry look positively decent.....If Bridge isn't there, and you want to make Joel a threat, I think he needs Rhys Evans next to him, rather than Blythe.

Juan Sebastian Veron was a talent who cost a lot of money but it didn't stop Fergie getting rid when he didn't perform.

| Let me think????
Last season didn't we beat Leeds twice in the league ..... and it didn't stop them going to win the GF
They didn't give in
When will we stop having a dig. We are now in a position where we know on any given day we can compete and beat the likes of Wigan Saints and Leeds and they can do the same to us
What we need to do is win the right matches

Okay, so we have established that WArrington Wolves is about as valuable and recognisable as Manchester United. However how do you combat the bit about Myler being young and talented???

| 20 odd handling errors, plenty of players out and we lost to a Champion team by 8.
That's a big positive for me.

Veron was a pile of e, end of. Just ask Chelsea, too.
Myler is a great player, who "fluffed-up" a simple clearance
To want to get rid of him (as an earlier poster does) is just plainly pathetic.
As I said previously,......only in Warrington
