Have we got any marquee players?
I couldn't see any out there tonight.

Another poor night at the office. We are such a frustrating outfit.
Definitely agree we need a refresh in the props, Bowden looks finished.

I'm not sure if you're saying that ironically but it's actually a point I took from the game.

We didn't totally capitulate and ship 50-60 as we would have previously.

As someone said, the rub of the green didn't go our way and Thaler kept giving them 6 again way too many times.

Think the lads were a bit hard done by the scoreline to be honest.

back to reality then

second best all over the pitch tonight, beaten by a more determined, energetic creative team, lost count how many ball players they had on the pitch....must have been 6 or 7 compared to our.... 1! our younger lads were bullied by their bigger senior players...some of thalers calls were poor but he doesn't make soft tackles that cost us 3 tries!

We are all fecked off but there's no need for that.

2nd half surprised me.
Hull just seem to fall off the pace.
I thought you didn't get the rub of the green and some ref decisions didn't go your way.
Warrington were hanging on at times in the first half and I couldnt have complained if it had been 12 all.

Thought Connor went missing in the 2nd half and Warringtons speed off the line got better as the Hull pack tired.

9 in total missing for Warrington, but not far off that for Hull
Lots of teams doing it tough and we're not even into 2 games a week......

Trouble ahead.

Has he started?

Must admit we didn't seem to get much from Thaler tonight and Taylor alluding to the fact a depleted side were playing with injuries I think. Question now is if we have 10 out or whatever it is we go for the win against Wakefield or just throw everything at Cas who may be without Watts - he posted on SM that he broke 4 ribs.

Been saying it for a long time, our gameplan has been built on individuals. When they are missing, or don’t show up, we lose.
Other teams base their games on systems so that if key players are missing, they still play to a decent standard. We just don’t have that.
Something needs to change. Feel sorry for Lasty as he’s been left with a team that knows only one way to play.
We need a Brian Smith type of appointment who will come in with a totally different approach.

We need revolution not evolution

Conner goes missing every time he plays in the halves.

I thought he was our best prop, some good hits early on

The best team won.

BUT

Kelly and Connor did not take control. If that was an audition for Connor - and overall I think he is an exceptional player - being a leader on the pitch he failed.

There were a number of mystifying decisions by Thaler. Warrington simply should not have been in possession for their first two tries. Fonua offloaded the ball and I think Warrington knocked on twice but he gave a knock on against Hull. When Johnstone tackled his namesake the commentary team could not understand why a penalty was given. When a pass to Lane was given as forward - well on that basis Wigan will never have a pass allowed again. Ratchford should have been sin binned for interference at the play the ball. All of those were early in the game and allowed Warrington to get momentum. After that every offload etc seemed to stick

Later he awarded a try to Warrington but went to the video ref who overruled him but he still gave them possession from a Hull knock on. Similarly to suggest that Warrington were only offside in about the 75th minute of the game when he had already penalised Hull twice is just ridiculous. Having watched a lot of Australian games during lockdown I like the six again rule but I think with our referees it is just a lottery and do not understand the basis for a lot of the decisions.

Even though Warrington were disrupted by the coronavirus problems they are clearly a more settled club and a team who know what each other are doing. Given player changes last year and a change of coach and the recent issues regarding the pandemic we have a long way to go.

Sorry but I was being sarcastic. Lowest form of wit I know but that was really poor. No excuses that was a terrible performance.

As long as he shaves that dopey beard off.

I wanted to start a thread for this one

Please move Swift to York

He’s not a SL winger. Never ever.

Taking Lineham on 7 mins into the game after the charge down and going out side of him and guess what
Into touch and they score off that next possession

Running the ball back and his head is way too high and makes nil metres as too easily pushed back

Knock on off Shaul and blames Shaul

Misses 2 tackles for tries to Mamo

He made the same error per CoVid in getting bundled into touch taking the outside

He’s NOT GOOD ENOUGH
