phil clarke thinks we're going to win it if salford don't, eddie was too busy fumbling with himself whilst thinking about rhys evans and stevo was in cloud cuckoo land as usual

No, my mate punched him in the side of the head and he went down like a sack of spuds

Made me laugh at the end when our fans walking out near carney & wells shouting over them "do you like that stevo"

Catalans 29 Saints 10 with less than twenty minutes left.

Could really have done with Saints taking the points but a Dragons win will mean we require just one point from the next five games to be in the top four at the split. More importantly ten clear of fifth with twelve games remaining.

wire v catalan-wire win

catalan v wigan-catalan win


at least a 4 point advantage over those 3 teams if we keep winning

Thanks to BP1 and Barnet for the Sky Sports feedback.
and thanks Jake for the Comedy Journo spoof, don't leave the day job mate.... lol

Mine was more accurate than the others

Looked marginally better watching it back. Terrific drop goal from Sneyd, but all about the robust defence. Tied up the likes of Atkins and Gidley really well I thought.

And sandow completely ineffective for most of the game

Currie also.

In an earlier post, I asked a question about Mark Sneyd's comment regards "the new ball" being the problem with handling and mistakes against Wire. Apparently, the balls used now have a protective film which needs to be scrubbed off before use, this did not take place, making the balls greasy/slippery when wet?????

.... are you saying that the protective film was not removed, or questioning whether it might not have been removed?

I was told, heresay I know, that the protective film had not been removed?????

Cheers, it would certainly explain why both teams handling was so poor.

Maybe Warrington thought it was the best way to try and stop the Hull FC train .

In all seriousness though if this did happen then someone wants a right ass kicking for ruining what could have and should have been a cracking game, still we got the 2pts so not complaining too much
