Me too, the last few performances just sapped the confidence out of me. Today shows how critical it is for us to stick to the game plan, control territory and complete sets. Our game plan is so territory based that cheap field position causes us big problems.

Great to have Ratchford back, BMM is a lot more effective with more minutes and the pack battled really hard.

Brilliant win.

He needs to find a mismatch in the defence that's when he is at his best. Our attack is often too obvious which enables opposition to get the numbers on him. He was a real handful today, he ran good lines and he ran in very hard too. I hope he has set his standard for the rest of the season, playing like that he improves us a great deal.

I blame Patton.

Good old fashioned cup tie. Well done to the team who were clearly delighted for Philbin when he scored. Don’t think it was coincidence that Ratchford was back and we get the result.
Have we really not got a player who could be trusted to come on as 4th sub?

Well done boys. Superb effort today. Great and much needed support second half too. Brilliant.

Bit strange the comments on our 4th sub. ... again.
Price has done this a few times.
Why be negative?

You don't think he has a point? You're asking more of the other 16 if you don't have any intention of using one of your subs! If you have an injury and are down to 16 in a match are you disadvantaged? If so then surely having 17 on the team and using all of them is better than only planning on using 16. It suggests that tasi isn't good enough really and is there to cover injury only, the only other explanation is tasi is carrying a knock and being looked after but if that was the case why not just pick moran instead?

When your side has just got to Wembley it seems relatively unimportant (unless you like a bit of a moan).
It happens.

I agree with you really but its been easy to become a bit negative recently!

The Saints after game interview with Alex Walmsley. It looked like he had a chocolate starfish as an ear.

I know. I reckon we all deal with it in different ways.
I try to pretend it's not important. But some just want to throw crap at the club they do really love.
Warrington is a great club who try very hard to be a lovely community club.

why are we only playing with 3 subs? That is a terrible state of affairs. Well done today Wire, perfect game plan, executed to perfection.

I was not sure if I had missed him coming on then off but his leg was heavily strapped. I think he was an emergency sub we don't know if he was the only prop available but was not really match fit.

One positive is it will certainly helped with our fitness playing with 16 them extra minutes will hopefully help coming to the business end of the year.

Much better performance today ,errors & discipline in check . Well done boys !
