After Atkins scored the first try there was only one team in it. Their defence was the most impressive part for me with how quickly they came off the line and stopped Leeds from getting anywhere. They should have nilled Leeds as the pass for Smiths try was miles forward.

It looked like the sort of pass that is allowed to go 9 times out of 10 but Dickie pulled us up. How he missed the ball hitting Mathers booty I don't know. He was about 10 yards away looking straight at it. Both decisions came at a time when we were still well in the game.
I'm not taking anything away from Wire, they put us away very impressively. They were by far the better team on the day and deserved their victory.
I thought Riley almost gave it away and it was a crucial time in the game.
No mate i understood that, lessons in how to defend dished up for Leeds today by a better side.

Yep they were superb in defence. Though those 2 incidents happened at 8-0. One score, which the Hall one would possibly have turned into, and we were on their tails. The Riley one doesn't excuse Kirkes embarrassing attempt but it was key as we should have a new set on the Wire 20.

Its good that you can still have a laugh when your team has just been humiliated in front of 80,000 fans plus millions on television.

Hey at least we got there. I don't think any team could have dealt with Wire today. I'm just enjoying all the cretinous comments that are getting posted by supporters of teams who didn't even get close to making the final. We got a spanking but there's still the GF to play for.

All the teams at the top of the table have a lot of star players, are you telling me that Warrington have more star players than Leeds or Saints? Depends if you are counting blokes like Westwood and the Andersons as star players or just Morley, King, Monaghan and Briers?

There was one for the Pies the other week, so it's only fitting that there is one for Warrington after yesterday. Brilliant performance, defence and offence were fantastic. Lee Briers, Ryan Atkins, Chirs Hicks, Richie Mathers take a bow. Breathless. Favourites to win the Grand Final now IMO, can beat anyone after that!
