Too right Yed.
The high bombs from GOB where not high enough, not allowing time for our players to create a presence and give their fb something to worry about.

At one of those bombs a only Wheeler tried to give chase. He is only half the size of their fb and wingers!

Every high bomb ought to be chased by ALL of our tallest players and some.

At first sight the tackle on Penny looked like a red card. But after watching the replay the tackle hits him on the chest and comes up. What made it look worse was the St. George player had both feet off the ground so there was potential for the tackle to go wrong and maybe a sin binning would have been appropriate.

I though Laithwaite was outstanding and got through a lot of work for you.

Back to one of my favourite topics, I honestly believe that Wire lacked craft from dummy half and half back. Had Michael Monaghan and/or Lee Briers played you would have won that game.

Ref had obviously been told to officiate the game as though it was a friendly (ie, keep your cards in your pocket) which was a real shame as it took credibility away from the occasion. Penny's was a straight red, which I could forgive Thaler for not seeing but what really got me was the holding down after a break in the second half. As soon as the penalty was awarded it has to be ten minutes, that is mandatory. Folks in the North Stand paid £40, presumably to see more than a friendly. Both teams certainly went at it in a fashion more than a friendly. So why was it refereed as a friendly?

If you don't think that was a red card it would be interesting to know what you think does deserve a red card, perhaps we should rewind a couple of years to a game at Huddersfield and Chris Bridge's contribution?

I've seen less given a red and far worse ignored. That's RL. For all you having a winge, think of Briers punching Ablett in the back of the head, a true coward act, never in a million years should it have been just a pen. You win some you lose some. wire fans should be more concered with multiple knock on's at the play the ball.

Best game I've seen in a good while. Thaler really let the game flow, only mistake was not showing a yellow or two. I thought Warrington gave it a good go and did Superleague proud. The main difference between the two teams was St George's half backs and their superior kicking game.

This.
I'd go a little further, your too kind on the Wire kicking game.
It was shat.

Disappointed in Darryl Clarke, despite him scoring a fabulous try in the Hull game he has been very very ordinary in the Salford and St George games.
His first decent scoot from dummy half came mid way through the second half.
Michael Monaghan would have ran at George Rose every second he was on the pitch.

Agree with you biscuit, we looked far more dangerous with Higham on.

Clarke was solid if nothing else. He made zero errors.
Higham came on and put the ball to ground on tackle one or two.
That put St G on the front foot. We're behind. Beaten.
I am totally opposite in my opinion who ought to be at 9.

I could be wrong but I thought it was the game at Bradford that was the 'issue'
Also Daryl has only played 4 games for us, only 2 of which really meant something.
He is class pure class.

Many of us are down after last night so, as usual, individual players are being criticised even when there's no obvious lack of commitment on their part. However, if the referee had applied normal Super League standards the likelihood is that we would have won and everyone would be happy. The players would be viewed as gods and talked of for the next 50 years. Clearly any sporting team in the world could in theory be improved by the inclusion of new players but that's not the issue. Instead, once again the problem lies in the referees interpreting the rule book in favour of the Australians. Eric Clay must be turning in his grave.

Are many of us down after last night? I don't see it on here and I didn't see it last night. We were beaten by a better kicking game and a lack of composure with the ball when we had it. Referees can influence games there's no doubt, but, when the first high shot went un-carded, yellow for mine then, we all knew the script for the evening didn't we?

Each team had a period of dominance in the game and I'm quite encouraged for the rest of the season and certainly not down. Come on Silver2 keep your beak up there's lot's of positives

Wasn't Evans the nearest man to their try line when he was pulled back?
So no penalty try then.

Ah, yes when I referred to "us" I didn't really mean to include myself. Ive seen too many defeats over the years for it to bother me anymore.
