A few things for us to remember;

1/ We are not as good as we think.
2/ Every team needs 2 half backs on the pitch at any 1 time.
3/ Our pack is too old.
4/ o Brien is our hb alomgside Briers.
5/ This hammering has been long overdue
6/ Anymore trips to Australia should be scrapped
7/ Hodgson's best years were at Huddersfiels, and yet, he is still 1 of our best playes.
8/ Westwood ( alongside Nat Woods) has been our best signinging in the last 20 years.
9/ We miss Louis Anderson......see number 8.
10/ Smith, by his record, will not be here next year.
11/ Catalans are a very under-rated team, and in Scott Dureau have ( Alongside Young Sam at Wigan) the best ball-playing-thinker in the game
12/ Bridge is a Hb and not a centre.
13/ Myler should be immediately given back to Widnes.

The team is going nowhere fast, and quickly becoming the Man City of RL.

Won a packet today, but that was bloody annoying.

Quote: wireforever "The team needs to give the tackle bags some hammer this week. Too much s cragging and not enough solid tackles going in resulting in Catalans breaking the line on too many occasions. Right across the board tackles were missed. GOB seemed to be one of the only ones who had read the tackling manual.'"

GOB didn't actually play today.

No mate, wake up and smell the ribena.

Please don't tell me you have not seen a hammering coming. Maybe you should turn your back on the game when the opposition have the ball. As a fair few on this site obviously do.

[quote="Rob_Wire":344rv4oa] :lol: :lol: Best thread for ages on here![/quote:344rv4oa] [quote="Tin Soldier":344rv4oa]Reply of the year. :lol: :lol:[/quote:344rv4oa]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_19301.jpg



Bit of perspective needed I think. The game, for me, turned on two or three incidents. When Bridge broke and sent a poor pass out to Monaghan, he could easily have stepped inside the defender and gone in himself. Would have put us level at least at that point. Instead, we soon had the farce at the other end where Monaghan and Hodgson between them contrived to let the ball bounce resulting in Anderson's try. Thus a ten point HT deficit rather than parity or even a small lead.

Also, Pryce stopping Hodgson from grounding was a big moment. The fact the Dragons scored three times in the last ten minutes put a bit of a gloss on the scoreline for them - it was a closer game than the margin suggested, though they were undeniably the better side.

Warrington do look disjointed at present, that's for sure, but I don't think there's any disgrace in getting beaten by a decent-looking side. The next three SL games are eminently winnable - six points from these fixtures will see us on 21 points after 14 rounds. Which is one more than at the same stage last season...

Agree with some + others not but some valid points nevertheless.

Certainly Wigan and Widnes just didn't show enough ability to take advantage of our bad play and slip-ups, unlike Saints who pretty much took full advantage. We were beaten by a better side today, and whilst we didn't play well, there won't be many sides who get anything out in Catalan this season based on what I've seen today.

I thought the post a few above might be a wind-up but now I'm not so sure.

Quote: Fantastic Mr Catpiss "Didn't think ball control was too bad today in the shape of rauhihi moves. As I've said elsewhere I'm very VERY worried about our inability to defend.
'"


I think you're worrying needlessly. Our defence early in the season was awesome, it only seems to me to have slipped in the last couple of weeks which is more a result of being knackered after a run of Wigan - Saints - and an Easter weekend trip to France rather than an inability to defend.

Wire will be just fine. Come June time all these gripes will be a distant memory.

I'm not blinkered, betting Cats -2 or scratch today looks like a great bet on paper considering the past few weeks, fair play if you took it up.

Doesn't mean all your points were valid though.
