| Quote: shinymcshine241 "TBH wasn't that nearly always just a high kick to the wing - sure we got a bunch of trys from Hicks & Monaghan doing it, but it was hardly a fluid / dynamic attacking strategy that cleverly unpicked a defence.
(Recognising there's a definite skill to kick it (under pressure) in the right place repeatedly, which I'm not sure we've currently got anyway).'"
We did get a lot of tries with kicks to the wing but also scored a lot from breaks from deep where we had supporting runners bursting through the middle, Myler, Atkins, Hodgson. Also Michael Monaghan was pretty good at making things happen inside the other team's 20. We didn't exactly play champagne rugby eg Saints under Millward or Cas in 2017 but we had a lot of ways to overrun teams who were generally backpedalling against our pack. |

We did. The most potent Warrington attack threat I have seen since Tony Barrow's1986 side with Andy Gregory, Mark Robert, Mike Greg, Boyd, et al |

Gregory’s passes to Roberts in full flight were just poetry in motion.

Our greatest attacking team was in 2011 before Hodgson signed for us. Although he was truly a world class player. How in gods name we didn't win the GF between 2010-13 beggars belief. |

The accuracy and timing of the pass was perfect, the line and pace of Roberts outstanding. Something I have never seen since. The defence never seemed to touch him.
I'm sure we will be told how we have embellished it, but in my memory it was amazing.
Ado that run around move we did, although this was Kelly and Bishop and Roberts didn't score.
Gregory and Boyd.

Rugby League was better then. |

This game had it all. Skill, pace, hard tackles, biff, local tribal rivalry, big crowd, crowd singing. Boyd vs Sorensen.
Tell me 2022 Super League is better sporting entertainment.

8 tries and only 35 points scored. Well, Bishop did get sent off in the first half!  . Elland Road 86 aside, probably the best wire performance I ever saw(and yes, I was at Wembley in 2019!)
