Heard a whisper on Sky that Widnes have a new ipitch?

you got home in double quick time

Rhino, why do you actually get out of all this ?
Why take the pi** out of 2 clubs, that will probably finish in the bottom 6 ??
I quite enjoyed the game, mind you I'm only used to the non promotion league, in which the standard of rugby is pathetic.
We can't all be Leeds Rhino's, one of the best teams World Rugby League has ever seen.......cough.

Widnes,already rock bottom of Super League.

Sign of things to come?

In all honesty Widnes looked really up for it early on and were the better side in the first half but all the pressure they did not have anyone to unlock the wakey defence. Second half they were poor and shaky wakeys superior fitness and desire shone through

Widnes shouldn't be too disheartened after that - there were good signs. The most worrying thing, to me, was the 'pass and hope' strategy in the last 20m of the Wakey half. Wakey looked very well organised in that area, by comparison. That'll hopefully change once you get the halves sorted out.

Rugby league is a simple game.No half decent scrum half,no chance.

Fingers crossed for someone getting hammered over the weekend! Dont like being bottom lol

Welcome back to Superleague!

I really enjoyed the first half of the match tonight, it was very competitive and entertaining. Same for the first 10 of the second too but then Widnes seemed to implode, which they kind of did in the last ten during our friendly at Langtree Park so presumably there is an issue of match fitness there (mental and/or physical) which should get better as the season goes on and all your non-SL players get used to the demands of superleague. The discipline needs sorting though. Can't be giving away that much ball or that number of penalties and hope to win a match at this level. I also think you really missed Watts. He looks like a good, creative halfback. It is a real shame he was injured in our friendly as I am sure his presence in the team tonight would have provided Widnes with more tries in the first half when Wakey were under the kosh.

It's a shame the team couldn't pull off a win but this first season is going to be a tough one. Hopefully the fans will adjust their expectations and stick with the team. There was a really good turnout by fans tonight and they were clearly heard, particularly in the first half.

Welcome back, more of the same please

Welcome back Chemics.
Got back very late and have watched the sky plus from earlier. Seemed to be a lot of fight there and I thought you
did really well considering the step up. What I thought was great though was your attendance. I don't know the
exact figure but Barrie said it was over 8k-outstanding. I don't want you to do too well as I have many bad memories
from the end of the eighties and early nighties but it would be great to have the derby again where were on equal terms
at the top of the league.

Nice to see you went to watch your own team tonight... Wanker.

Great game last night, although I am a Wakey fan, don't be too downbeat, it was your 1st game back in the big league and you have a lot of new faces, stick with the team and the coaches and the good times will come, and that's speaking from experience after following Wakefield for over 30yrs, welcome back to SL and good luck for the season.....
