Through train line you can get a coach for £16 the club are charging £67 pound, if you want to go by train it’s cheaper to go from Manchester Picadilly by a big amount.

Only times I saw us stay down was Fitzgibbon (who went off and never came back after writhing around clearly in agony) and Thewlis, who got rocked in the jaw but got told it was legal hit lol. That fans clearly a salty bell.

I didn't fully appreciate how good a game Currie and Ratchford (in defence) had until I watched it on iPlayer when I got home. Currie was really immense.

You must have missed where I said how good he was and so did Morrisseyisawire.  He was superb and has been consistently good all season

Excellent performance, I think everyone to a man has been name checked above and rightly so. Vaughan is superb, and has been since he got here, but that was another gear. 

On the contact with the head stuff, I’m genuinely confused. I don’t think any of them should have seen cards, nobody wants to see cards in big games. But, Lewis Murphy and Saints have every right to put the tele in the bath after watching that. We’ve just completely changed the policing of that rule without actually telling anyone. Earlier in the year Trout and Tai would have both seen a card. I’m not saying that they deserved cards, but how can you reasonably explain accidentally making contact with the head when catching a ball 5 feet in the air, and getting binned, and someone smashing an almost static player and making forceful contact and nothing given. 


The ref broadly did well, but missed a clanger with the tackle from Dufty holding up Armstrong (After the superb Thewlis tackle). Dufty comes from an offside position and makes the tackle. Leigh will be furious with that. But, on balance, the second Sneyd chargedown Liu was offside and it was given a turnover. At 12-4 up and completely steamrolling them at that’s state, we could have shut the game down if that gets blown as a penalty. But, that’s why we have challenges and it’s both teams fault for their misuse of them. 


Thewlis and Tai have proved me wrong from the start of this season, I thought both were underperforming but their effort yesterday was exceptional. 

as a neutral i thought it was a cracking tough game of RL, and good luck at Wembley, at least my work colleagues will all be happy this morning


IMO, the ref got the head shots correct. The one being called out from Trout wasnt even him, and disappointing to see players calling for him to be off. He nailed Dufty who bounced into i think it was McNamaras head on head, so absolutely the correct decision for me. Although at full speed it didnt look that good


the big decision i thought the ref got incorrect was in Wires favour, when Ipape was close to the line (brilliant tackle from Thewlis to stop him) but the subsequent play of the ball, IMO should have been penalty to Leigh and poss sin binning as Ratchford came in from the side and dove into the POTB, so and i think the commentator picked up on it by saying you need to make the ref, make a decision, and he saw it in Wire favour. Other than that i thought he reffed the game well, and was sensible by not binning players from either side for the contacts to the head, which were the right and sensible decisions


I thought Vaughan in his 1st spell was outstanding (was MOM for me), and Harrison played a good cameo when he came on making some good yards too. Probably the 1st time i've been impressed with Fitzgibbon if i'm being honest (but i dont see him every week), and he was in some pain when he went off. 


One thing i think you did really well was contain Armstrong when he linked into the line. I think Ratchford nailed him virtually every time and he got very little out of you all game

I think we are showing some amazing guts and character at the moment. We are patched-up, and suffering more injuries every time we play, but we keep digging in and competing. I echo what others have already said about some of the individual efforts yesterday, but Vaughan was like a man possessed. Please, please sort out a new contract for that man! There's one thing we really need to work on, though, and that's short kick-offs. We seem to be the worst team in the league at either doing them or receiving them.

It's always been down to his wage demands & wanting a 2 more years, like most NRL players at the end of there careers. They're a long time retired and want to earn the most they can, while they can. Can't blame the man for that.

The club have always felt they can get better VFM than what Vaughan & Musgrove earn, hence why he hasn't extended. But it's proving hard to recruit the players Warrington are targeting. I think the feeling at the club is they'll find middle ground pretty soon, but yesterdays performance was a very clear indication from Vaughan that he feels he's still got plenty to offer. 

Vaughan's stats have always been great even when it looks like he isn't playing that particularly well, the number of meters and tackles he makes are always impressive. So unless he's asking for a ridiculous amounts of money (which I doubt) I'm not sure why a club, who have failed miserably with recruitment for the last 5 years, think they can get better VFM elsewhere. He's still our best prop by an absolute country mile.

Thewlis Snr, Fitzgibbon & Harrison have been playing for weeks with various injuries as well Vaughan & Powell's finger issues.
