I wish people would realise you're going to see a lot of highs and lows with our performances this season. The past few years we have lost Hodgson, Briers, Morley, Carvell, Monaghan, three of which are pivotal positions of 1, 7, 9. Two of these areas have been replaced with quality players (Ratchford and Clark)but their games are still developing, still haven't really replaced Briers but Patton looks to have promise, we have introduced many home grown players as well whilst still remaining very competitive (GF eliminator and CC semi). We have had some great performances this season and some terrible ones and also been in the big games till the end. I doubt we will win SL or the CC this season but we're going to see these young players hopefully develop very well, giving us a platform to build on for the future. #truth
My points are -
1. Well done to the whole team. Difficult to pick a mom. Everyone played well. We fully deserved the win.
2. I think we got the bounce of the ball on a number of occassions - more than out fair share.
3. We also manaed to successfully slow the ptb down, and in that I think we were fortunate. Another ref and another night and we could have been penalized time and again.
4. Left hand defence very good.
5. Great to see Patton put in some good kicks.
6. Myler played well
7. No problem with Leeds whinging at the ref. Whenever they do that it always means they're rattled, and boy did we rattle them.
8. Why can't we play that against other teams or more consistently? What happened to turn our team from beating Leeds the first time to losing 5 out of 6, and then beating them a second time?
Question 8 is the big one for me, but well done lads.
no arguments or complaints from me as imo that would be pedantic to churn out the usual things that go against sides that lose
the truth is that the best team won and warrington will definitely be a team that we or any other side for that matter will have to beat to win any silverware this season
although im sure we will be able to learn from it and deliver the goods when the big games come around
as a side note,i would love to have stefan ratchford in our side and he would be great at 7 alongside sutty
