"
Thomas Doyle picked up a foot injury in the St Helens that will keep him sidelined for an extended period " 

Yeah, probably better to give Cozza a crack this week, he deserves a run-out. Croft got underused last week and is only just finding his feet in the backrow.

Lino on the bench is a waste and Russell hasn't done enough to earn his place.


If we are letting Nax and Tom another chance then really Walmsley should too as they were worse than him.


And I think I'd play Smith as interchange hooker too.

Agree with your first point, Lino and Trueman haven't done much wrong and Russel hasn't shown anything yet. No doubt he'll get his chance in the halves but not against Wire. 


Matty Russell had a great first game of the season against Leeds and should have kept the place if it wasn't for a bit of injury. I know a few players in the backs had a bit of a mare last game but let's be honest, for TJ and Max it's very rare. Saying that I just think Matty's wing style will be suited more against wire, with his hard carries starting sets from deep, being better than Walmsley's.

Lino can come on and cover 9, but I'd be equally happy if Smith gets a chance as well. Russell hasn't played 7 yet so he's not had chance to earn his place. But it's what we signed him for.


As poor as he was against Saints, who do you think Warrington fear the most, Tom Johnstone or Lachlan Walmsley?

Poor so far, penalty when in possession, poor attack when close to the line, no marker, turning our backs on the attack.
We need to sharpen up or this will mount up and the game will get away from us

That’s a try but as soon as the VR said has that come away from the hand it wasn’t going to be overturned

Matty Russell is clearly grounded with the ball in the field of play there, not going to get anything from the officials again 

I thought his hand slid off the ball before it hit the ground... No downward pressure... In parts we look good in other parts we look like we are hanging on... Communication on right edge defence needs to be better

My word. That was surprisingly easy. 


Our pack dominated. They couldn't handle Hamlin-Ulele, Vagana or Hood.


Our expansive play and slick hands was magnificent. 


Wonderful!
