| What a tough match.
Always new it would be.
Saints were better in the first half and we were under pressure for a long time and at 14-6 I thought it could all go badly wrong but the guys hung in there and defended for all their lives.
So to be 14-12 down at half time I was relieved and thought things had to turn in the 2nd half at some point, but to win 22-4 in that 2nd half was awesome.
Many players deserve a mention, but Woody and Cooper made a real impression (Was Cooper kept back until the 2nd half? He sure had 3-4 guys hanging off him every time he took the ball in, and still made yards).
Top performance by Waterhouse - 2nd week running
MMonaghan caused them lots of trouble and Briers did what Briers does best.
TS got his tactics right and again Hodgeson was pivotal - saved 2 certain tries, kicked 5 goals, laid on at least 1 final pass that head to a try. Messed up a bomb and Saints thought we'd be vulnerable to that tactic in the 2nd half, but we weren't (partly because their execution wasn't as good as it could have been).
The team has real steel and belief and fully deserved the win.
Well done lads.
I'm over the moon.

| Coops was immense....as was Woody.
there were a lot of very good performances out there tonight...everyone of them had a part to play..and let nobody down.....that's the real difference with this Wire team...no weak links.

| Cooper was awesome in the second half.... and paul wood. Both players layed the foundation for the backs and really took the game to the saints pack tonight.... second half we were the warrington that everyone fears. The pack dominated and the backs were electric.
How good was Brett Hodgson?.....unreal...... its no wonder he got a 2 year contract.... he rolled back the years tonight.
Its hard to find any faults tonight... well apart from Higham in the first half, who was playing NFL.
All in all, a well deserved victory against a well drilled defence that just couldn't cope under the pressure exerted on them once thaler put his whistle away.

| Higham was playing NFL but after he watched Thaler in the Catalan Leeds game he probably thought they were the rules.

| Was a little worried when I saw Carvell on the sidelines but Coops more than did the job.
For me that try just before half time was crucial. Meant we went in with our tails up knowing we were right in the game. You could see that in their body language going off the pitch.
When Saints scored before that I though it was going to be a repeat of two weeks ago.
I think the Waterhouse thread needs bumping one more time!

Sure he was on at the end, may be wrong.

Perhaps we could go back and bump the first Waterhouse thread.

| Thought Cooper was the game changer, he had a big impact on turning things around to dominate our pack. Waterhouse finished things off, very good reader of the game.
