Totally agree cup is priority this season for me

So much easier to win cup than league esp this season

No it was the players they threw radford and Hodgson under a bus 100%

The players tried to do it again start of season but then realised Pearson and the fans aren't falling for it anymore

So the players had no where to hide

The closeness of the league is against us this year aswell. You can usually rely on Wigan/Saints to keep winning against teams around 6th, 7th, 8th, which gives opportunity to match them up. but so far any team can beat anyone. Makes it harder to catch up when all teams are constantly picking up points. Could do with Cas to get their act together and keep picking up wins against the likes of Leeds, Rovers, Salford.

Think people expected him to be French/field type impact soon as he stepped off the plane that was the issue

Whilst I agree to some extent that some players let Brett down, he has to take most of the responsibility you sign the likes of Gale, Evans, Reynolds, who will have been three of the highest paid players you are going to struggle.

Poor tactics, use of bench and team selections were also poor, I just don't think he was ready for a first team job.

To be quite honest I'm not sure about St's, granted they had a good win and played some good rugby against Huddersfield but think a good part of that was down to how poor Huddersfield were. Don't get me wrong they are still one of the best sides in SL but they have shown they are not invincible and can be beaten, plus they are now in a position that they haven't been in for a long while in terms of not having most games their own way.

You could also say the same about our own form that we are now improving week on week and yesterday played some attractive attacking rugby whilst also being resolute defensively against the then table toppers. Think the team as a whole have shown that they do have the ability to compete and whilst we are unlikely to do much this season in the race for the GF which I think we've left too much ground to make up we certainly have a shot at the CC.
Then in saying that when you look at the table and some of the inconsistency of teams above us we are somehow only 6pts off the team in 3rd despite our 7 game run of defeat. All I'll say is it bodes well for what TS is building moving forward at the club which we haven't seen for a very long time.

Leigh this week is another key game and test for me as to our ability to be able to back a good performance. We now need to be able to show that we can put in another performance like Sundays and be consistent with those levels.

All thoughts on the next game against Leigh for now.

Terrific performance,,loved the change in powells face,smug to sick.lol. Griffin is a different player in the forwards,hes a big lad and puts the speed he has to good use.Well done.

Have to say early in the first half Warrington looked to be much faster than us and when we started with errors and six agains i feared the worst.
To their credit the team dug in and provided us with a second half of effort,good rugby League and the best excitement of the season.
What a pleasure it is to see us cutting loose from deep inside our own half,with players backing up,rather than 5 drives and and a kick.
As others have said special mention to Clifford (apart from the place kicking) and Hoy should be brimming with confidence after that game and i hope we now start to see him emerge as a key player for us.
I know McIntosh did better yesterday but our right edge of him,Scott and Lane is average so if they can be replaced with some speed and size,and we can keep Clifford,we could be looking at a very good team for next season if the club use their overseas quota wisely.
Swift however is going to be a big miss for us

Well, if you're volunteering.

You sound like former poster General Zod. So much bitterness to unpack. Breathe, and enjoy this window of relative good form - there's literally no need for unsubtle barbs against our hat trick hero.

He didn't quite have the good grace to mention or give the MoM, triple try-scorer any credit in his first after game post mind.
How heartwarming to hear he's '[iactually pleased'[/i for Josh. I'm sure it's 100% genuine.

just seen the farcical man of steel points for our game, how Clifford didn't get the 3 points let alone 1 just shows how rubbish the system is!

Can only assume it’s his stinker kicking for goal that has cost him. Missed out on the team of the week too.
