Nope I only clap what's worthy. But I will not boo the team. It's really unhelpful.

So very poor.

I was amazed at how unfit we looked towards the end of the game, Catalan just walked in those tries. Lack of fitness, lack of heart and a lack of effort from 60mins onwards.

What's this big deal about booing? There's loads of jobs where you get stick from people and in a lot of cases when its nothing to do with you.

I would happily be earning what some of the big guns in the Warrington team are on, and getting abuse from the crowd, there's plenty of people who work in call centres and take abuse from people all day for £14k a year, or policemen/nurses having to deal with aggressive drunks for an average wage.

Fans are paying their money and voicing their opinion, as long as it doesn't stray into racial abuse etc then its just part of the game and always will be.

fair point sally cinnamon, we pay their wages to an extent, because without the supporters paying to watch that drivel every week, where would the club draw its largest source of money from?

If i mess up at work those who pay my wages tell me im in the wrong, so why should sport be any different? As paying spectators we expect a certain standard not just 'entertainment'. If i wanted that id watch WWE.

Besides, this 'Lowes style' of play doesnt even class as entertainment.

Good tackle by Westwood...if he was in the WWE.

Location: Reading up on the game
Speaking as someone who went to the game as a neutral but with a hope for success of French Rugby League, I was surprised that the Catalans were still going with their lying-on tactics which have cost them dear in terms of penalties over the past few seasons (even last year they were nearly top of the penalty count table). Its an area that they certainly haven't imporived on since there first season.

What surprised me more was that they were getting away with it so much this evening. I was commenting with Wire fans around me that it was a lot like an NRL game, slow play the balls etc.

Only when I got home and watched the first part of the commentary did I realise that this was an Australian ref. Whilst this doesn't explain Wire's performance in the last 20 minutes, it was a bad development for our game overall.

Even if you've come over from Australia, it should be explained before the start of the game that the 'wrestle' as they like to call it is not what our game is about. Its about as interesting as watching an RU scrum- how can we enjoy a game from the stands when the action in taking place on the ground between a tackler who has already made a tackle and a player who has already been tackled.

Its one thing to win the tackle as Paul Cullen was pointing out on boots n all, its another to watch players trying to do it after the tackle has been made. It all added up to a much poorer spectacle than might otherwise have taken place. I suspect if an English ref or indeed M. Alibert had been in charge tonight, the penalty count against Catalans might have been much higher.
