Poor Ward stood no chance.

No idea how we've won this, not warrington like.

Unlucky RFL and Thaler

I'll calm down, and post later

BEAUTIFUL

He needed to score that. That's what he was bought for. Doesn't mean he did some real stupid stuff previous to it.

I'll post now.......

.....but at the end of the match...
Sideshow Harvey stole it ....YES!!!

Hughes' offload was awesome. We scored 2 great tries to get us back in front. Great win that. Thalers pens against us were harsh early in second half. Great win and great composure when it all seemed to be going against us.

What a good game to watch, pendulum swung, the good the bad and the ugly show from BMM (but definitely do NOT) get rid. Livett has really stepped up. BUT most importantly, some great rugby from the Wire!
More detailed analysis for later, but thank you Steve Price.

Great win tonight eespecially as we had to play Thaler too.

Getting rather excited about our prospects this season.

BBM needs more than a last minute try to put right the ill discipline that nearly cost us.
We were far better than his mistakes. 16 heroes tonight and him.

I'm not sure what a "lady minute" is but I think I might like it.

16..Did Declan Patton play. Unless I missed something

nope, we played with fifteen men for most of the game. think we had all four props on at one point

Wow, what a performance that was tonight. The sort of game you remember long beyond the present season.

Livett, Ratchford, Clark, Westwood all sensational, but feels wrong to pick them out as they were all on it tonight.

Even after that you have to try to find the scapegoat. Wires71 will be on in a bit soon to tell us which player he wants out next. Embarrassing.

To be fair his PTB error was harsh there was interference but he should have been more composed. Not going to judge BMM off one game when he scored the wining try. Not his best but a good performance all round and as I. Mentioned earlier great composure, we didn't panic. Thanks Steve Price, the culture of the club seems to be changing, happy with that sort of a win away at a rival.

The 4th is strong with us!

A few thoughts:

- Too many errors from BMM
- Thaler bummed us and didn't even take us for dinner first
- The sky MoM 'legend' is yet another useless RL gimmick (margin meter anyone?)
- I haven't enjoyed a match like that for years

Lol

“Sideshow Harvey”...

I like it!

Watched at the pub so couldn't hear the commentary but am I right in assuming that 3 of the 4 mom nominees were from Leeds?

More like Beaker from the Muppet show.

I can't believe you lads who put comments on here during the game. You will enjoy it more if you just watch the game without picking up your phone or whatever.
Good win though. It just reminds me how upset I was last year. We are definitely there or thereabouts ... and that's good ... and what the Warrington Club deserves.

Yeah, so I'm guessing the 'legend' (if they really exist!) was Gary bloody Schofield!

.....and breathe.

WOW

bar a couple of away games at Saints, that's the best we've played since the 2012 CCF. Some top notch performances, notably Clark, Livett, with honourable mentions to Hughes (yes, Hughes) and Ratchford, who we need to get more involved. Sensational hands, tonight.

When I turned 20, I tried to temper my cynicism of RL referees. For nearly 30 years, I've almost held true to that. Tonight, that temperance ended. Thaler was DEFINITELY under orders. The most "interesting" refereeing"performance" I've seen in a while. On another day, I'd call it out and out cheating. Let's not it cloud an unbelievable Wire effort.

I'd still like to see a lot more from our halves
Our pack, without the star names of Smith's era, are getting better. Our game play, though not where we were 6-7 years ago, is improving week on week.

I said in an earlier thread, when we were down in the doldrums in early March, "there's no reason why this squad can't be top 4". Tonight is that quote's fruition. SUPERB. I'm a proud lad.

Two last points

Leeds. Never write them off. They were turning out results like tonight, week after week in 2011. Remember what happened then?

BUY A ####ING GOALKICKER

Well, phew. Last nights Saints game was valium and this was Red Bull. It was thrilling stuff - dramatic, theatrical, pulsating and totally engrossing from.both sides.

Ratchford, Hughes, Livett, Clarke especially were superb but everyone continued their personal and collective raising of the bar. Livett in particular looked unplayable at times.

Some of our rugby was outstanding and if Saints had produced tries like Livetts 2nd and 3rd, poor old Eddie would have burst into flames in a trouser-dropping frenzy of joy. Shame.

Finally, I'll get it out of the way. Mr Price, I was wrong. Not about the brown shoes and blue suit, I stand by that, but about everything else. Pop round for a brew and jaffa cake anytime.
