WHAT! Are you saying Clarke wasn't to blame for these things?

I think I might have to take some blame for this. For the last 10 years I've been bringing my mum to one or two home games per year and prior to today she'd never seen us win at home. I took her along today and she's still never seen us win at home. I may just have to accept that she's clearly cursed.

In all seriousness though, it was obvious that both Friday and the weather had a major effect on all of the top four clubs. The fatigue shown by some of the players doesn't concern me too much, as that's the last time this season that any of the players will have to play twice in a weekend. The performance in the rain concerns me a bit more however, as I seem to remember it being a problem last year (playoff game against Hudds?). Our game obviously suits dry conditions where the ball can be flung about all over the place, but it's a fair bet that come September and October we'll be playing a crucial game in rainy conditions and will need to adjust our style of play accordingly.

Grix has been a low-key success for a fair few weeks. Hope you poked said rotund dimwit in the eye.

being honest here friday nights game was not to blame, myler, moz,bridge, hardly broke into a sweat on fri benny was awesome on fri and today, he showed no signs of fatigue we just was not at the races,salford came with a plan and stuck to it.

Hodgsons fault............. for missing that first conversion. We need a kicker

Is this the same idiot who said Myler was crap and we should never have signed him, Smith out because we can't play rugby in the rain and Atkins is crap because he never tried to tackle a player (at this point the ball was in the middle of the pitch so god knows why Atkins would come from centre to tackle him anyway!)?

But the best one of his lot from yesterday was...

"Briers you're finished just ____ off"

You just couldn't make it up!!

Ben Thaler as referee? Three of Warrington's five defeats so far this season have been with him in the middle (!)

A nice few boos from our idiot fans at the end of the game too. Some people are pathetic.

A bit disappointed that some players didn't come over to the south stand, because quite a few people stayed to clap them after the game. Just one of those games by the looks of things...

This clarkey thing makes me laugh. Some of us picked him out as a weak link in our team, not blamed for defeats but if you improve where you are weak i think it stands to reason you will improve. The same arguments happened with penny, people picked out his defencive weakness others tried to blame others around him. The coach has dropped clarke and got rid of penny and we are a team improving not getting worse.

I don't think it's the only thing to blame, but it certainly played a part in it. The team wouldn't have been together to prepare for the game and it showed. I thought Westwood played well too, but didn't he get subbed in the Salford game? For him not to play the full 80 fatigue must have been a factor.

Three teams provided 22 of the 34 players on show in Fridays match. All three had games that should have resulted in comfortable wins yet not one of them managed a win on Sunday. You honestly believe that Friday nights game had no influence in yesterdays results?

I'd say it was the weather more than anything else, heavy rain and a heavy pitch (especially at Bradford) is a huge leveller in RL. We had all our main playmakers on the pitch yesterday and that should have been more than enough to beat Salford, the friday night game obviously didn't affect Carvell and Westwood, Hodgson wasn't over extended by England on Friday night.

I don't buy into Friday night being the main reason that we lost, Monaghan seemed to play well below standard as did Briers, friday night wasn't the reason for Briers and Monaghan playing below par as they didn't play in the Exiles game.

But 7 of the players around them had played friday night and had been missing all week, When we played Cas a few weeks ago Rangi Chase did nothing because his team mates couldn't set a platform. I thought we looked really tired second half. A few weeks ago we beat Salford 60-0, so what else has changed?
