Quote jonh="jonh"I’ve been a critic of Wane and due to being on holiday and my wife unplugging the Sky Box I’ve only been able to see the tries rather than the whole match.
On the basis of that though you have to give first and foremost Wane a massive amount of credit he put a game plan together that Saints seemed totally unable to handle. Let’s hope we can do it consistently now for the rest of the year as I think Saints and more likely Wire in my opinion will be a major threat.'"
I have been and also still am in some respects a huge critic of Wane but that performance on Friday was absolutely outstanding in every department. Our defence was awesom, our attack was fluid and quick. GW looked like a HB with freedom and boy did he look the part, I can’t remember a game in a long time where I’ve thought GW was outstanding. Very unlucky not to get MOM IMHO, genuinely I think he deserved it but you can have no complaints over Greenwood getting it.
Absolute credit to Wane, the team was set up perfectly with the right balances throughout. Sarginson was awesome, Powell barely put a foot wrong. Essentially all the players singled out for criticism, and heavy criticism at that, were superb.
Without sounding pessimistic; I hope this just isn’t a one game wonder and we’re back to the usual drivel for the next game!
