Quote: Slugger McBatt "By the way, on the subject of the fish bar, what on earth is a "wet" and what the heck is a "mixture"?'"


A 'wet' is pea juice thrown over your your chips. It is also known as 'pea wet'. A mixture is chips and mushy peas. I think it's only Widnes that uses these terms. I have never seen it anywhere else.

I believe they call chips and mushy peas an 'Irishman' in Crewe. So, I guess, everywhere has their own particular names for chippy food.

Quote: mwildcats "Lets also remember 2 of your 3 try's came from mistakes / luck in mathers not booting ball out and the charge down other than that, there wasn't much created.
I thought Widnes had a tall imposing pack but their tactics were a bit old school.. leading with elbows, head high tackles. I think Widnes like ourselves will be much better later in the season when they have gelled and have their better players in.

Good Luck for rest of the season..'"


All tries come from mistakes or luck... Every try relies on someone not doing their job by missing a tackle or not being in the right place positionally. For example, one of our players rushed out the line for Mathers' try leaving a gaping hole.
As for our tactics being a bit old school, I've watched the game back and our 'tactics' are nothing out of the ordinary that you don't see in any other SL game. I must have missed all these other super league games where there isn't a single penalty for a high tackle. Let alone two or three.
I could throw your way that on at least six occasions the Wakefield player stepped forward off his mark and should have been penalised for it but didn't.

They were getting away with a lot of holding down, and slowing the play-the-ball, all night too. I don't suppose they would have noticed that though icon_wink.gif

Thaler is a Cas fan, which in our book makes him the anti Christ!!!
One win out of three games he reffed last year, zero from five the year before.
You lost fairly and squarely, talking clap trap won't change that.

Quote: Dr Chim Richalds "What a wonderfully typical one sided view of the game. I thought my post was fair, I certainly didn't need to add another fir the sake of balance.
All teams have injuries it's about having a squad that copes as best as it can in those circumstances, and I'm sure at some point in the season you will beat a team suffering similarly, it's the nature of the game.
I've just watched the game back on sky plus and for you to moan about conceding two tries while down to 12 men is laughable.
How it took 71 minutes for a widnes player, (take your pick from Moore, pickersgill and cross for high shots, Moore and ah van for profesional fouls) to receive any kind of reprimand, and then for it only to be descent is a joke and showed the ref up, and perversely only highlighted what many wakey fans expected, a one sided refereeing performance.
As I said you lost in the second half because you tired badly and a fitter better side took full advantage, for you to think otherwise doesn't reflect well on you.
As for the wakey fans shouting for widnes players to be sent off, watch the game back and ask yourself I'd the boot was on the foot and the red was continually doing nish, wouldn't you be tempted to acclaim the same? I'm sure the answer would be in the affirmative.

You sure about that, it's not what I hear but hell you may know more than me on this one.

I actually think we do OK with Ben in charge,

As Testy said that's because we were disciplined and you were not. Cross in particular was a liability and pretty much threw the game and that was not Ben Thalers fault. I agree that perhaps another ref would have been more sensible if for no other reason than to stop this kind of bickering.

That said the result would still be 9 penalties to nil, however Ganson for one would have brandished the yellow sooner than Thaler especially as it was a telly game.

There is no denying your indiscipline helped us win the game but the try's that won it still took some scoring.

On a positive, Frank Winterstien looks to be reaching his potential which is good to see, always liked him when he was with us.

I think fitness let Widnes down and that is why gave silly penalties away.Bad kicking game and lack of creativity at halfback.Clarke is not a scrumhalf.

This suggests that Widnes need to sort their discipline out.

Fitness and stamina showed in the last quarter and thats why the bad tackles came in from Widnes.Watch anygame like that and its what happens when the opposition start to feel the heat and limbs start to hurt.

Look Doctor, what with you being new to this Super League lark is you have to realise that the game is not run for the benefit of the likes of Widnes and Wakefield. We don't count. It's only run for the benefit of Leeds, Saints, Wigan and Wire (who replaced Bradford in the RFL's wet dreams). icon_wink.gif

Of course you did.
Oh dear - someone is clearly rattled.

Chin up - things can only get better.
