Too predictable....

No playmakers....

Devoid of attacking play ideas....

Too one dimensional....

Kits nice though...

Away one is better.

I'm def lumping on Leeds after that performance so fill your boots.

It's a long season. If you're still playing so poorly around Easter then you will have cause to worry. Kicking game was awful tonight, I didn't understand the decision to play Monaghan in the half backs.

Nor did i Rouges, was kind of hoping we learned that lesson in 2008.

I'm not sure how many of saints points he was directly responsible for but it was a lot.
It looks like we are going to be treated quite regularly to that Michael Monaghan 2008 'hand in the air' , "im' sorry " gesture again...

I hated it back then I'm already sick of it after one game....

I'm going to try and sleep then mull things over in the office tomorrow before posting. Deary me!

We need a leader and an organiser, I love Benny to bits but he isn't captain material, to much of a clown and has a tendency to not pack the grey matter in his kit bag before a game.

If Monas is a half back then Michael Worrincy should be our next defensive coach with Wellens leading the speed drills.

First game. Credit to Saint's they capitalised on some errors and scored some good tries. Walsh was good for them.
Let's move on. As mentioned before regarding 2008, we've all seen us play worse.

I said it before the season, before we bought anyone and I'll openly say it again.....we won't be anywhere near the Grand Final this year.

You might be right, but it's too early to make those calls. Huddersfield have always opened with a big win and have never featured in one either. Even if you don't make the GF, this season is vital for Warrington in terms of establishing your new spine 1,6,7,9. Russell, Ratchford, Myler and Higham might not win it this year, but it's part of their development they need to go through.

If I were Smith, I'd also use this season to bring a 9 through. Are there any in your academy who look good enough?

Most worrying aspect for Warrington tonight wasn't the performance, it was the bench.

We have a young hooker, Brad Dwyer who was on load at Hudds for a spell last season. Very nippy, elusive and good distribution, we need to be using him more.

Do the Warrington players know that there is relegation from Sooper Dooper league this season ?

Goodness me, why on earth would we need to do that when we can just bring Ratchford into the halves and move Monas to replacement hooker? Similarly, why bother following Saints idea of giving a promising, raw half back (Wheeler) game-time and a chance when we can just send such a player out on loan to get banjoed and play a hooker with no knees or a loose forward there instead?
