Quote PopTart="PopTart"I can't believe we'd get a centre like him and put him in the second row when our pack has been doing so well.
The edge defense has been much stronger since Kirmo came back and Tanginoa is ripping it up on the other side. We will make good yards with Atkins on that left side.'"
Apart from Tanginoa I fail to see this. It's done okay but thought Warrington first half rolled us down the middle with ease. Also, something I thought was interesting was the difference in the coaches' thoughts after the game on Friday, see below:
Warrington coach Steve Price:
"It was a fantastic first half. Everything we set out to do pre-game we did and we could have been further ahead. The second half they were ready to be choked but we took the foot off a little bit.
"The most pleasing thing was the win which is all that counted. We got a lot of belief and confidence after the Challenge Cup win but it was all about getting back to winning ways in Super League.
"We played some really good attacking football especially in that first 40 minutes and we created a lot of ruck speed.
"The boys are all in really good spirits at the moment and we came out of the game with no injuries which is the main thing."
Wakefield coach Chris Chester:
"We always knew we needed to win one more game and we now need another big performance. We can't afford to worry about other teams, I've got to make sure we prepare well and make sure we get the result.
"We spoke in the dressing room that we need one last big effort and if we get the game won we will all breathe a lot easier. It's another big week and I'll try and keep the pressure off the boys but I know the players will be giving their all.
"We gave ourselves too much to do in the second half although we were a little bit unlucky to be going in 16-0 down at half-time. We were pretty good defensively but just had some individual misses which cost us.
"But there was bags of effort and we were the better side in the second half and showed some grit, determination and courage to get ourselves back in the game. We had all the momentum in the second half and we were fantastic and there was very little between the two teams. We were unlucky not to get the result."
