Quote: Steve Ella's Beard "Don't be so limited in your thinking. Jonh saying some aspects of our play were poor (ball retention, giving away penalties, poor kicking) does not take anything away from Warrington's performance. It doesn't automatically follow that because we did some things poorly that we think Warrington were anything other than fantastic (because they were). The elements of our team play that jonh is referring to were entirely in our control, nothing to do with how well or poorly an opponent played. Talk to anybody involved in coaching and you'll get the same response, teams are always looking at the areas where they did not perform well, and i'm sure McGuire is going to be going over the failings in training this week.
Don't have a chip on your shoulder and feel this means any disrespect to Warrington, it doesn't - you're a very good side and you played and bossed the game very well, but i'm positive that big nose isn't overjoyed that you didn't put it to bed when you were dominant, and likewise Maguire won't be thrilled about poor discipline/kicking/lost ball etc putting us under more pressure than we needed to be.
It's just a technical analysis of the game and our team's performance, don't take it so personally.'"
Sums my thoughts up, while i think at times we were our own worst enemy Wire played a very good game and pretty much did everything right except finish us when they has the chance.
Both teams can expect good seasons but both also have much to work on.
We as rugby league fans can expect one of the best seasons ever in my opinion and both clubs on display tonight will be amongst the leading lights in contributing to that.
