They say this a lot does Sky, I've heard them say it a few times and they're actually right for once too. Cut out the errors but still play fast and fancy and you're on to a winner.

Stuck to our Plan B last night (fast and direct up the ruck) instead of the spread plays and the team seems FAR more comfortable with it.

I've been saying for weeks (not necessarily here) that we need a plan B. We get one and stick to it and last night happens!

Are you talking about Warrington or Leeds here?

Had a bad feeling before the game but what a brilliant performance last night, a joy to watch. Just hope they continue like this, we've been poor at times this year but on this form we could still go all the way. Big improvement by Asotasi and Myler this week. Gutted for Grix, the lad has had no luck with injuries this season.

The cheeky shot on Sky of the LLS being put back in it's box and taken away was very funny should Cas beat Wakefield on Sunday, next week's gonna get interesting with Cas at Catalan and Stains at Hudds...

I wasn't pleased to see Stefan named at centre last night due to his previous performances, however last night we let him play his natural game, picking up from dummy half and confusing defenders either side of the ruck, that's what he was doing fantastically last year at full back.

Also very few penalties. Lots of discipline last night, both with and without the ball.

thats an achievement in itself, considering who the ref was

Hate to say it, but he was pretty good too.

It didn't seem to help Saints when we finished up with Russell running from dummy half just as effectively as Michael & Mickey & when they were all on the field together it was explosive.

I think we have a replacement hooker for when Higham's knees finally grind to a halt.

Some of the plays have baffled the fans this year but last night they started to pull it together .

Quite brilliant last night from everyone involved.

The main difference for me was going 6 behind and not panicking we got ourselves back in the game by playing relatively straight forward RL, put the squeeze on, complete sets, made Saints defend (a couple of poor-ish kicks first half was all we gave them) and ultimately mistakes. When their heads and energy levels went we starting throwing it about and it stuck because it wasn't 'rabbits in headlights' stuff trying to score off every play.

Hard to single out anyone, but, a special mention to Asotasi and Waterhouse who I have criticised, whilst not stellar it showed real effort, more of the same please till season's end. Atkins is definitely back and seems to be enjoying himself. I wish some folk would get off Myler's case, one wag near me shouted to him to eff off back to Widnes as they converted their first try, yes he'd put in a couple of poor kicks, but, I thought his ball steal was more one on one so a bit unjust for mine, he improved as the game went on.

Also, the Myler shout apart, I thought we gave the lads decent backing last night can it/does it make a difference? Let's keep going ....you just never know if we all put the effort in.

NTW

If Russell worked on his distribution skills, I think he would make an outstanding acting half back
and Ratchford could then play what I think is best position at full back.

I would play Russell as a winger so we can utilise his skill from running out of dummy half.

we played very well don't get me wrong. However what annoys me is when we put in a performance like this, players who had been poor such as asotasi and myler are deemed to have played really well. Okay, they were better than usual but let's not over exaggerate it, they couldn't get much worse.

Asotasi didn't really do anything good, I think he had one drive where he carried on pushing forward after the collision, which isn't even anything special it's a basic skill for props. He's been so bad all season that our expectations seem to have dropped from a seasoned pro former national captain, to treating him like he's an 18 year old on debut.

Now myler, I watched him very closely last night. Kicking game was very poor, even when he has bags of time it's straight down a defenders throat. He missed multiple tackles, one after his poor kick which lead to a half break and also one lead to a try. He took his try well but that gap was huge so it was nothing special. He was out shadowed by Obrien all night IMO.

Please don't think I have some vendetta against these two, I would love for both to start playing great, however I just don't feel because we had a great team performance that their individual performances need over exaggerating.

I can't actually believe i agree with you on this , although for totally different reasons . i prefer it when we play our fullback as the third halfack the way Brett used to play , Now Matty Russell with 3 tries, 3 assists and and 8 clean breaks all season is never gonna be that player so for me the sooner we get Ratchford at 1 the better .. Russell simply isn't good enough at Fullback so get him on the wing where he may get put into space to use his pace and like u say use that also for running outta dummy half .. but i want Ratchford at Fullback .. .

Ratchfod never proved that he was going to be fullback, He was given the No 6 jersy for obvious reasons. Russel has had a good season at No 1, and moving him to the wing would mean dropping J Monas or Rhys Evans! Ratchford seemed to enjoy the space he got at centre yesterday so I'd play him there again, assuming that Bridge gets asked to play at 6 again when he returns.
