Total mixed bag.

We scored some lovely trys, but there were some poor defensive efforts and a couple of brainfarts - Sezer not realising it was the last then Wire scored infuriated me at the time, but then he made a great break for one of the trys, and his kick to fusitua was a peach.

We just needed to win today and to be fair rhe lads did look up for it were just lacking a decent spine at the moment, Hooley looked ok and is taking his chance.

Cameron Smith was the best player on the pitch by far.

took thr grandkids to filey. much preferable than headingley at the moment. thanks christopher

To be fair it was a pretty enjoyable afternoon, big crowd and sun shining which feels like the first time the weather has been good this year and were near the end of the season

Sezer would have been my MOM. He might have made a couple of mistakes but he's having to make all the decision making for the side, and today he got most of it right. Terrific effort to stay in the game against a full strength Wire side. Their spine (on paper) looked far, far better than ours, but somehow we hung in and got the win. Think a couple of our young lads have hit the wall - O’Connor looks jaded, and Johnson (though he was hobbling for most of the game) is no half. Fusitua and McDonald both did a great job bringing it out of back field and also really pleased to see Newman play for longer than expected and do well. Just glad to get the win.

That wire side on paper was far stronger than ours, there is something seriously wrong at Warrington, think theyve lost 10 of their last 11.

OConner does seem to have dropped off a bit but to be fair to him he’s still learning and only young.

Think we’ll see Sinfield in next week, Johnson didn’t look 100%.

I thought Cameron Smiths second stint was his best when he came on for johnson. He looks slow and a bit cumbersome when he carries the ball but often finds a way to break the line or at least make ground. Good that Newman looked to come through OK and probably played longer than planned. Bentley gets criticism sometimes but his work rate is outstanding, especially considering the minutes he does.
As others mentioned johnson didn't have the best game. He struggled in defence and while playing out of position, I'm not sure he is destined to be a regular at 9 either. He hasn't been given a long run in the position, but in the times he has played there he hasn't really done much of note.

It`s a shame for O`Connor as up until probably these last 4 games he`s been ok, nothing brilliant but ok.
I think it`s no wonder he`s hit a brick wall the amount of minutes he`s been asked to play due to us having no other option.
I also bow to the expertise of others on here but I don`t see a good hooker in Johnson just yet.

Johnson is basically 2 years behind where he should be due to giving the game away a few years back, he’ll come good IMO

O'Connor will definitely come again. He just looks knackered and bang out of form at the moment. He's played a lot of minutes in a very high pressure position this season. Johnson was playing on one leg from very early in the game. In fairness he worked really had to contain Williams and Dufty down their left, but I agree that Sinfield should get his shot.
