Why is that?

And why are you two trying to ruin a good thread?

EDIT

Don't answer that lets just keep the talk about rugby eh.

Our backline is just as good, they proved it last season. See the GF. Sensational. But they have not even got out second gear in most games this year. When they do we will also be hard to stop. We are a team clearly trying to peak at the right time. Our backline also matched the St George backline in the WCC, they are the best club backline in the world.

Against the best teams you can't play like that for 80 mins, it is just not possible. We would have won 40-0 in the GF had we kept up our intensity from the first 25mins. What Warrington could do better is not let the teams back in to the game too much. They are so used to being in control that when saints and hudds came back at them they didn't look sure how to respond. They pulled through but warrington still don't have the play-off experience. They can play knock-out rugby... no doubt about that, they are the current holders of the cup, but play-off rugby is different because you need 3-4 maybe even 5 (including the last week of the regular season) big performances in a row. Wire don't have the experience of doing that in a high pressure situation.

Firstly, it's "you're", not "your".

Secondly, your Warrington chums ruined this thread with ridiculous dream team picks. So tootle off back to the Wire board please.

I think our backline from 1-5 in comparison to Wires is probably a touch behind at the minute but could be as strong if not better when the play offs come round. The reason I say that is because we've got a right centre/wing combo still getting to know each other and as well as he's done Richards is still getting back from a very serious injury.

Wires backline has been exceptional this year and whichever way you look at it they'll be tough to stop. I've said it all season though that if anybody does stop them it will be us and us only.

There's nothing to choose between the 2 sides.

Thats what a mean keep it up in defence and attack.

Gleeson was awesome for you in that GF all IMO etc but attack wise I think ours is alot better yours may shade it defence wise, the playoff thing is just something we are just going to have to wait and see how we go.

My dream team this season would be a mix of Wire/Wigan but with Roby and TP on it thats for sure.

Thanks.

But no and try and keep it on topic please.

At least its a more mixed view than Yed 8 wire players is going a little too far.

If Myler carries on and Morley played like last year could have been worse

Anybody else think it's a little weird that hardly any huddersfield players get a mention considering how well they have done this year? Not criticising anyone's picks by the way because i wouldn't put any of their players in either. I guess it just shows they are a well drilled unit who play well as a team without the standout stars.

So you haven't noticed that they've had a distinct dip in form since they lost Danny Brough then? Think he'd have been a definite shout for the dream team 7 shirt if he hadn't picked up that injury

Brough might be a little unlucky to be overlooked - Dureau has grabbed headlines this year, but Brough was a shoe in for England until his injury.

Brough is a good player, but would not get in this year's dream team. Dureau is a cert for the 7 jersey unless his recent injury rules him out for a long while.

They lost their best back and best forward in Brough and LOD, Brough is due back either this or next week LOD is already back, they'll pick up again for the playoffs.
