I've been watching Warrington since I was 5. I'm 36 now. But carry on patronising me, sound. Prick.

What? I have no idea who that is so don't conflate my posts with his.

Of course you have! That explains your OTT posts

We were bad tonight but nothing is won in April

"Top of the league, we're having a laugh, etc"

Also, can people stop saying we're missing Mikaele - he's gone & isn't coming back, can we move on please

Also also, our 2 worst performances are with McGuire playing, hmmmmmm

Find it sad that posters on here are arguing amongst themselves like those on the Redvee.
Look, we get out first 17, then we go again and no one will touch us.

I’m as disappointed as anyone, but if we can’t beat Wigan with the team we put out, we sure as hell ain’t going to beat the champions with it.

There are individuals that impressed over the last 7 days and those that didn’t. I’ve was happy with the work of Williams and Russell, I’ve disappointed with the effort of Ratchford and Drinkwater.

Well guess we just needed to remind ourselves of last season so we don’t get complacent for the rest of the season

But in all honesty we getting killed at the ruck, they laying on from the get go was awful, at one time that grub Scarsbrook could of strangled one of our players he had him by the neck that long on the floor. I thought the directive was to speed up the game but clearly not when we are playing.

Defensively Dufty is very poor, under the high ball he is worse.

He looks a shadow of his former self.

Why not?

I wasn't expecting that at all. I think whilst we were far more impacted by the absentees, both coaches had similar problems. No props, (no backrow for us too) and the normal gameplan unavailable. Powell seemed to replace Vaughan and Dudson's work with Ashton and Russell and try to play the same way. You were getting bullied when you took the ball in tonight in general and the slow play the balls on the first and second tackles stopped any momentum. Williams then tried to go laterally far too early and without any momentum forward. Contrast to Saints and the likes of Lees and LMS were used properly. They ran it in hard and got a decent play the ball. Lomax, Dodd, Welsby and Bell were then having fun pivoting the ball around off a retreating defensive line. We were making 15-20m a carry without even beating a man. I think we only used 15 players tonight too and had two of the oldest players in the competition playing huge minutes.

Sure you effectively had 3 props missing (You wouldn't have played 5 more even if they were all available), but the worrying thing for you is that if teams stop the quick play the ball, there is nothing else there and it goes straight to panic stations. Stop the quick play the ball and it's just a case of keeping an eye on Williams. Your back rowers were poor as well. Nicholson was bullied physically and looks like he needs taking out of the firing line for a week or two, which all young players need from time to time. Currie the other end of the career scale and both him and Clark looked way off. Maguie very poor too, but he needs gametime to get his sharpness back I guess. Team selection odd I thought too. Thewlis and Mata'utia on the bench and Minikin and Russell starting? Clark at loose not Ratchford? That way you could have had Walker coming off the bench with Kasiano. Why don't you play your academy forwards? Were Thomas and Holroyd injured too? Why put Green on the bench if you don't trust him to play?

Masterclass from Lomax tonight I thought too. The best player in the competition still.

McGuire… my Nan could have had more impact.

She’s been dead 30’years.

Needs to up his game massively or bugger off back to Oz.

Very disappointing last night.
Saints clearly derseved to win.
Not too many Wire players were on their game - Ashton, Walker and Matautia were 3 notable exceptions.
As Saddened says - Saints slowed the ruck speed down like Wigan and we didn't really get on the front foot.
I think Clark came into the game at less than 100% and Harrison seemed a bit short of match fitness.

Lomax was very very good.

Dufty had a bit of a mare and the high kicks under pressure found him out more than once. The 3rd try off a great kick should have been dealt with. The Saints player ran harder with more desire.

I think we played better last week, certainly defensively - even though in my opinion DP got his team selection wrong.

I think this week the tactics weren't right - or at least weren't executed at the right level.

These 2 games have been a reality check.
All 3 teams are down on numbers, but we should really gave done better lsst night.

Last week we got bullied and Wigan played the conditions better (Smiths' kicking was sublime). This week we struggled with the slow ptb, tactics might have been off and execution certainly was.

As an aside - we could end up with 2 more suspensions based on precedence.
Kasianos flop on Lomax that wasn't called, and the drop hit tackle on Welsby on around 59min (if memory serves me correctly) by the 3rd man - didn't actually see who it was. Again that wasn't called - and in my view was worse that Vaughans.
