We just needed the two points tonight it might do us some good

Why’s Powell not been playing Riley Dean - he looks class'"


Nothing makes sense this season with Mr Powell this season I'm afraid.

He's had an awful lot of changes to make for reasons we aren't privy too. He may have thought we'd be defensively more vulnerable with another young player, in that position, in combination with other numerous changes to integrate. Who knows. The 2nd half sounds much more positive, would you agree?

I agree with you gaz but that doesn't mean that the first half didn't happen. Second half was plucky but Leeds went 3 converted scores up against a side that struggles in attack. Were we really plucky in the second half or were Leeds complacent? Or a bit of both?

I'm not ignoring the first half at all; I'm pleased with the second half because it was a positive reaction to the first half. I'm not saying we played champagne rugby or are anywhere near where we want to be, but the second half performance, in not folding and giving up, has shown that the attitude is changing. Most complaints on here, of which there were many, were in relation to the attitude shown. It might be hard to stomach for some, but we got stuck in and outscored Leeds 12-0 away in that second half. It sounds like Leeds weren't at their best for that period, but credit where credit's due.

It would be interesting to hear some more opinions, but it looks like everybody's gone to bed at 21.45.

I’ll be honest here, that second half wasn’t a case of Warrington playing that much better, Leeds were terrible in attack and discipline fortunately our defensive effort won us the game.

You guys had all the possession and field position but only managed to score from a kick and an overlap which wasn’t particularly well created.

Austin was also robbed of a try, it was never a forward pass, Martin flick it backwards and Austin even had to reach backwards to catch it.

Powell has a lot of work to do, personally im not sure he’s up to it.

Cheers again Christopher for that perspective. I'm pleased that, at least, the attitude seems to be changing. Still such a long way to go, but it's something to build upon.

Terrible first half from us, but a much better effort second half, which was probably down to us applying ourselves better and Leeds switching off a little. Really, given the possession and territory we had second half, we really should’ve won for me, but some poor decision making and a lack of quality probably cost us in the end.

Smith has done a great job in turning Leeds around overall and they’re on a good run. I’m sure they could be one to watch come the play offs, but they’ll have to improve massively on tonight’s showing.

Where I would be worried as a Wire fan is you guys haven’t seemed to have got any better at any point in the season.

Take us and what’s happened since Rohan Smith has come in, were a totally different side, with the same squad, and its is 100% down to the coach, he’s totally turned us around, were the form team in SL at the moment, if you have a poor start to next season you need to get shut of Powell

Ashton picked up a quad injury he will be asessed and Currie but if a knee injury.

He isn't. He's basically relying on a huge pack to make up for his lack of coaching ability and I doubt it'll work. Hull haven't done much in the past few years with their so called monster pack and Salford have proved this season that having great props isn't the be all and end all.

Things aren't changing based on a 40 minute period. Just like they didn't change after the Catalan game. Stop going round Peacocking because we scored 2 tries in a second half spent on their line lol.

That was the first time this season after the earlier matches, as far as i can recall, that we have fought back in a sustained way against descent opposition. As I've said, it sounds like Leeds were poor second half so that helped. A reason for a little optimism would you say, or does it spoil your week because you're going to have to find something different to moan about?

It's not peacocking. I'm trying to bring a bit of positivity and highlight that the biggest gripe on here - lack of effort and throwing the towel in - could be changing, because, as I've said, we haven't seen that type of response this season in the second half.

With inflation, the Ukraine war and the repercussions of Brexit, you've got plenty to moan about, so don't worry lol.

If you look at previous sides he's coached, he does promote attractive attacking rugby. He just needs all the new players to bed in and assimilate, then hopefully we'll get to see some descent moves, though admittedly, we haven't seen that much yet and it sounds like we still have a way to go.
