Very impressed with the performance yesterday despite the result. I personally thought Child had a bit of a shocker yesterday. The blood bin situation with Horne sums it up. How could he stop the game for a Warrington player to be treated yet let play continue and make us play with 12 men? Absolute disgrace in my opinion.

That said we really do need to address the penalty situation. Yeah, some of them might be 50/50 calls but we're still doing too much and given the refs the excuses they need to blow the whistle. I believe all their tries came on the back of penalties? Our defence was brilliant but we're unnecessarily putting ourselves under pressure.

Our attack looks pretty good and if we can learn to be a bit more clinical and improve that game management Radder's talked about then I think a lot of teams will struggle to cope with us.

All in all the signs are looking good.

Certainly doing better than expected.

The signings seem to be better than it looked when they signed and young players like Bowden stepping up.

I think if we can improve a couple of areas we have a real chance of finishing in the top 4.

Tony smith wasn't happy with him either,complaining about slow play the ball,we know he's poor,but aren't they all.

Unfortunately, yes they all are. But I think Childs is one of the worst. Good to hear the opposition saying they weren't happy with him either. Sometimes I think we can be a bit biased...

intersting to see who was penalised the most?

According to the SL website the stats say Hull 10, Wolves 7 which is pretty tight. I'd be interested to see what areas of the pitch he gave the penalties in for both sides.

Most of the penalties awarded to Warrington seemed to be given 30 metre's from Hulls line and last tackle which tells you something.

Indiscipline

Spot on. We've been our own worst enemies for 2 years in this department.

The ref may be inept, but that doesn't excuse our own brain-fks like flops, lazy tackles and the like.

No doubt about it. I certainly wont blame the ref all the time even thou Child was gash. If we can cut the needless penalties out and have a bit more ball retention then i think we could become a very good team.

Probably the most frustrating thing for coaches,its criminal to give a penalty away on the last tackle.

Both kicks for Warrington tries were very tight for off-side, particularly the second one, but I'm biased.
