Quote: moto748 "After 15-20 mins, I thought we could be in for a tanking, but Wire faded badly in the second half. I think French is growing into the role at 6 OK, really. Both he and Field got their hands on the ball plenty, which is surely what we want. I would have liked to see more of Nsemba too, he looks such a good prospect. KPP and Mago both pretty good. Dunno if I'm being unkind, but when Smithies broke for the try French eventually scored, I did think, is that the fastest he can run? We got the score, anyway. Wire didn't seem bothered about preventing our scorers running round to make the conversion easier. Saints or Cats wouldn't have allowed that.'"
I thought Smithies had a good game and showed decent pace in the open, his first break he showed some wheels and did Dufty around the outside and had nobody else been there he would have scored, even though that came to nothing it was actually a big moment in the game imo as it broke Warrington opening dominance and put us on the front foot for the first time in the game.
