Wonder what Walter thinks of Louis Johnsons performance last night? He looks a great athlete and pleased he has been given a chance and took it. Been ripping it up in the U19s and it’s great we have that pathway into the first team.
Despite not being a fan of Patton i thought he was great tonight.

I agree with you Lefty in that Warrington are definitely not out of it and it wouldn't surprise me whichever of the top 4 wins the GF as I think that unless Saints find their early season form then anyone can win it and no team should fear any of the opposition left in the competition.

I think that if you face Saints in the playoffs then you can go into the game without the pressure of expectation which could play right into the hands of your players.

I thought Johnson looked very good for a debut game.

The score line did flattered us but I am always happy to take that scenario.

Fair points made Itchy.
The way 2017 went, coupled with the opening six matches, the only pressure of expectation was avoiding the middle eights again.
Made up to make the top 4 and just waiting to see what pans out in October, and you're quite correct as I'm hopeful as opposed to expecting to lift the trophy.
From a neutral, good to see Dom Manfredi playing again. We've had the frustration of having Currie sidelined for great chunks of past two seasons, so one has to admire his patience and resilience.

Grade C 3 match penalty notice suggests it was not a “typical overreaction”

The disciplinary accept an attempt at a tackle was made but TL was reckless about outcome.

Whilst in realtime I thought it was a shocker & definitely deserved a card of some description, 3 matches seems a bit harsh.

1 would've been enough in my view.
