| Surprised the attention Sims is getting when Jordan Cox has to surely be the worst prop in the league. He plays a few minutes per game and spends most of the time blowing out of his hoop.
With regard to George King he is only 21 years old and has been great value this year.
Amazed we have won that with the hookers we had, neither of the two can defend one barely and the other not at all.
On the positive side Patton and Toby King really stepped up to the plate. Hill as ever was superb.

Rea was pretty bad too. There was a moment on about 70 minutes where Catalans ran the ball in and Tony grunted 'ahh, that's good.' Not sure whether his pleasure was derived from Remi Casty's footwork or Stevo's hand, but either way he really got into the Catalan cheerleading in the second half.

| Win next week and Wigan lose, we are guaranteed a home semi final. Win next week and Hull lose, all we have to do is beat Wigan at home for the LLS. That will allow us to send the U19/23s to Hull while the lads get a break in preparation for the semi final.

| 2 points. Well done.
Brace yourselves. MAJOR rant coming up.
I can't believe my frustration since 5 o'clock.
Ryan Bailey is just the World's biggest tool. I wouldn't mind, he's a good prop, but a walking bell end. We start conceding points, and he starts losing what brain cells he's got, and gifts Cats territory/possessionn/momentum, just so he can stamp his "authority" on the game.
Tony Smith is the World's stubbornist man. We've seen what an out and out winger brings to our team. But no. In the last 2 or 3 months, we play a centre and a full back, on the wings. Play Penny,
Our team, in the last 2 games, have let a 10 point lead in a cup final, and an 18 point lead, go in the blink of an eyelid. If we want success in October, we're gonna have to grow some testicles.
Still bored with our lack of passing, and dependance on dummy half runs. Tiresome.
Stephenson's PATHETIC co-commentary "role". FFS, he's supposed to be impartial. He might as well shouted I WANT WARRINGTON TO LOSE every 10 seconds. The deflation in his voice when Currie went over, couldn't have been more evident. Squeeky Ben Proe wasn't much better, either.
Umpteen brain farts by Sims. Come on, son. There's a time and place for continuous offloading. Not after 2 have been disasters.
My feed on the dodgy stick was poorish
Plus points.
Penny's reintroduction, and the reappearance of the youngsters. They did more than their bit.

| Quote: dingdong21 "Absolutely brilliant win,we showed great character to come back at the end when we looked spent. We looked spent last week and nearly did the same so you can't question the players resilience.
Really pleased for Ben Currie,what a way to bounce back from the disappointment of last week.
Speaking on Sims I think he needs to focus on running hard and hitting hard,he is a solid prop and a good leader,we should expect no more of him than that and he should leave the offloading and passing to those who are capable of doing it!'"
Think everyone of us would have wanted last years top offloader in our team. Anyone have any idea who's topping the chart this year?

In Rea's defense I think he was just excited by the comeback and just happy to be seeing a good game in the 2nd half. I think he wanted to see it go down to the wire (figuratively speaking ).

You don't think winning a game like that is us having testicles? They had a week off last week, we played in the toughest game this year has seen, yet we won it with a try at the end.
Big wraps from me.
Not pretty, but sometimes you need to win like that on your way to a title.

| Well done on the win, although you did make it hard for yourselves having built a good half-time lead. Pleased for Currie as it will go some way to compensating for Wembley. As an aside, what on earth was Tony Smith thinking about to bring Bailey to your club. Looking forward to your visit to the KCom.

I [ireally[/i hope that Penny's almost game-costing error doesn't stick in Smith's memory banks. I'm worried that both this and a few weaker tackle efforts (one where Cats went over) are justification enough for him to be dropped again.

I was very proud of our team last Saturday. I'm even prouder now. Terrific character and some great rugby. Well done Ben.'"
Agreed I think Toby King really stood up tonight and some of the young Fringe players looked like they want to be in the frame for the run in. Without the johnsons ball strip we lost that game comfortably. Enjoyed that game but my fingernails probably didn't.

| To be fair, Sims got a good pass out to Toby King that could have brought a try, but it was ruled forward although it didn't look any worse than Cats had been getting away with all game. The youngsters & our new winger made a big contribution today i thought ,which must have been difficult with the short defensive line Cats were getting away with at every ptb.
I don't watch on sky very often but that cretin Stevo sounds more & more like an elderly relative you wouldn't want your friends to meet. He just gushes absolute rubbish. He was devasted when the Myler try wasn't given despite finding reasons to include so much as a broken finger nail to validate a try.

the thing is he picks on Éloi Pélissier who granted is also a mighty tool.......but is also the smallest man in the whole of France.........
you cant punch anyone anymore so just run in hard and put some big men on their backside........I thought his antics gave Catalan a massive boost.
but at least he did some minutes which is more than can be said of Cox.......what a a staggering drop in performances from him...
and agreed on everything else as usual lefty...

| Forgot about Cox, biscuit.
As I said in May, re Cox. The new Danny Lima. Runs the ball in once, then spends the next 10 minutes with his hands on his knees, knackered. Wage theif.

| I'm not at all surprised Sims is the top off loader.
A time for it too. Element of structure and surprise over predictable but hazardous.
What's his bust or break a line stat?
