More like Beaker from the Muppet show.

| I can't believe you lads who put comments on here during the game. You will enjoy it more if you just watch the game without picking up your phone or whatever.
Good win though. It just reminds me how upset I was last year. We are definitely there or thereabouts ... and that's good ... and what the Warrington Club deserves.

Yeah, so I'm guessing the 'legend' (if they really exist!) was Gary bloody Schofield!

| .....and breathe.
WOW
bar a couple of away games at Saints, that's the best we've played since the 2012 CCF. Some top notch performances, notably Clark, Livett, with honourable mentions to Hughes (yes, Hughes) and Ratchford, who we need to get more involved. Sensational hands, tonight.
When I turned 20, I tried to temper my cynicism of RL referees. For nearly 30 years, I've almost held true to that. Tonight, that temperance ended. Thaler was DEFINITELY under orders. The most "interesting" refereeing"performance" I've seen in a while. On another day, I'd call it out and out cheating. Let's not it cloud an unbelievable Wire effort.
I'd still like to see a lot more from our halves
Our pack, without the star names of Smith's era, are getting better. Our game play, though not where we were 6-7 years ago, is improving week on week.
I said in an earlier thread, when we were down in the doldrums in early March, "there's no reason why this squad can't be top 4". Tonight is that quote's fruition. SUPERB. I'm a proud lad.
Two last points
Leeds. Never write them off. They were turning out results like tonight, week after week in 2011. Remember what happened then?

| Well, phew. Last nights Saints game was valium and this was Red Bull. It was thrilling stuff - dramatic, theatrical, pulsating and totally engrossing from.both sides.
Ratchford, Hughes, Livett, Clarke especially were superb but everyone continued their personal and collective raising of the bar. Livett in particular looked unplayable at times.
Some of our rugby was outstanding and if Saints had produced tries like Livetts 2nd and 3rd, poor old Eddie would have burst into flames in a trouser-dropping frenzy of joy. Shame.
Finally, I'll get it out of the way. Mr Price, I was wrong. Not about the brown shoes and blue suit, I stand by that, but about everything else. Pop round for a brew and jaffa cake anytime.

A strong pack and a balanced 1/4 line.
How I wish we could play Saints a just embarrass them. A one trick team as I saw last night.
The best goal kicker is playing on our right wing. Charnley can bang them over from anywhere.

But that's exactly our problem, rd
We've had a bucket full of these kind of "kickers", since I've been watching.
Ratchford, Briers, Carbert, Lyon, and, to a certain extent, Harris.
But they are not Hesford, Woods, Davies, Hodgson.
Good goalkickers MAY win matches the team should win.
Great ones ALWAYS do.

| I tell you one thing, we've been flying under the radar during this winning run. Not any more.
That was a very good win overcoming iffy reffing and a few brain farts of our own making.

How have I been dragged into this? Still not heard from you on your last post about my alleged "scrap heap"? Probably as there were no posts to back up your effluvium. I'm putting it down to the fact that I must have offended you in a former life or you have some challenges.
Superb win. To lead, go behind, and pull it back to win is very encouraging, especially missing 3 conversions.

Yes, Matt Parcell was robbed there. But really, isn’t this Sky MOTM thing becoming a pain in the wagging the dog? You get a really good match set up beautifully for a nerve-shredding final 10 mins and you have to hear the ever-predictable Eddie wibbering on about the MOTM choice for most of it.
But those last two tries...wow...was watching with my son who first got into SL as a 7 year old in the 2011 season and it took us both back a bit

| Just watched the game back. We're not as fluent as we could be but bye heck, we've got some resilience. 10/11 points down with 20 mins to go - we've shown it.
I reckon we can take anyone on bar Stains if they have they're A passing game on.
But I reckon we'll do Saints if we put our mind to it.

Shut down the Roby go forward and put a man like Atkins or Westwood to follow BB and frustrate the feck out of him and they'll get a thrashing.

| BMM in full flight is a joy to behold but if he keeps giving away silly penalties like last night it will all be in vain.
Ratchford caught a tackle round his neck that went unpunished that was worse that the penalty Bennie gave away.
