Well done Warrington.
Has as been said your players 1-17 were the better over the 80 mins.
As a Wigan fan I saw the game a bit different.
I thought it was pretty even for 60 mins but in the last 20 you kept your intensity where Saints fell off.
Your pressure forced Saints into all sorts of mistakes Welsby and Lomax the most notable.
Also they brought Walmsley on to over power your pack in the last quarter but he was very poor and was dragged off.
For so many years Saints have overpowered their opposition in the last quarter especially at their place.
Seems to me that Big Sam has brought an intensity to the squad that previously wasn't there.
We saw a different Warrington today, a team/squad that can go the full 80 mins.
Things are looking good for you guys.
Once again, well done Wire.

Fantastic performance, one of the best all round displays I've seen from a Wire side in a long while.
Fast in attack, and magnificent in defence. Can't get over just how good Harrison is, a real find.
Here's to the semi's! icon_biggrin.gifANCE:

Just finished watching this on iplayer as I was away today. Fantastic result.
A lot of good points raised here.

Williams was outstanding. World class performance.
Harrison has come of age in these last 2 games and led from the front. (I now don't fear if Vaughan is out). He was an absolute animal out there. What an engine.
Ashtons finish was incredible but he was so good at bringing the ball out of defence.

It was a close game for 60 minutes but at half time I was worried about the 2nd half simply because Saints didn't really seem to have got going yet still were neck and neck with us.
But on reflection that was because of the way WE played and how WE did not allow Saints to play.
They made uncharacteristic errors because of the pressure WE put on them and got them rattled.

I simply didn't understand the Saints game plan.
I can't remember a single high kick to our right.
Saints forwards struggled to get 'go forward'.
Lomax and Welsby were non existant for large parts of the game.
Clark only had a couple of runs from dummy half.
Was this because we successfully managed to slow their ptb down? I'm not sure.

Clearly our best performance of the season.
Great team spirit and belief. Resilliance is building.

Fantastic performance from all 17.
Struck me what an influence Sam Powell is having on the rest of the pack. Calm and unfazed and his attitude seems to have rubbed off.
More of this please boys.

I was dead wrong about this guy. I always thought he was just a tackler and a bit of a spoiler, but your description is spot on.

Neither he nor Hayes do anything flashy with the ball, but you can tell both of them know exactly what their jobs are, moving the ball quickly and tidily and making space for others.

Exactly the same here, for me he was the spare part at wigan who seemed to be the person still clinging to wanes terrible tackling style long after he had gone.

He's been a very very shrewd purchase and I have to eat some serious crow

Quote: ratticusfinch "We’re all supposed to be miles behind St Helens but so far on tv we’ve heard;

1. Whitley is the signing of the season - he’s nowhere ruddy near Fitzgibbon.

2. Bennison is that good that he’s keeping Tee Ritson out of the side (tee hee)

3. James Bell is their most influential player…..James Bell….these are the Entertainers apparently.

4. Clark has been brillliant….looked bog average.'"


Bell was ok, all 3 other points would be highly disputed yesterday

Another point to bear in mind was how we neutralised Walmsley. Every time he got possession we were in his face and not afraid to let him know. He normally returns for the last 20 mins against a tiring defence and looks a world beater. Yesterday they were forced to bring him back before 50 mins and he got battered again before leaving the field injured. As most of their go forward is on the back of him running over tired defence or little blokes they were a busted flush without him.

Anyone else just a tad disappointed that neither Wilkin or Amor were part of the commentary set up for this one?
