The best thing about wire on Friday was that price had identified where we were weak, came up with a plan to exploit it and his team executed it to perfection. We're soft as shiite around the ruck and they broke us time and again by going at the defence around the PTB area. Every team in the comp will hit us there from now on. The number of tries we concede from dummy half runs is shocking.

Attitude, commitment and mindset all wrong from the off on Friday. It's happened too many times in recent years so we know it's down to preparation and mental strength. We didn't seem to have much of either on Friday

Are you for real here ??

He practised a drop goal at the end of a game to practice for close games

To think it was ‘look at me’ is naive at best

He was practising a DG whilst tired at the end of a game when players around him were tired but would need to protect him whilst he slots it over
Also we now have Golden point - again a practice

Think RL not personalities

To be fair to Austin, he did say in the interview afterwards (as Mr Fantastic Cat has mentioned) that it was a good opportunity to practice for closer games which will inevitably come up. Although Austin has been class, he doesn't come across as arrogant or flash at all, in fact quite the opposite. He's very down to earth and modest/realistic about the club's and his performance.

Agree with you with the rider that this would not be the scenario in a real close game due to the absence of opposition pressure on him. In this instance Hull did not show any interest in blocking the attempt as there was little point in doing so.

Blake has stated he was just having a practice . It’s Rugby League. The game was put to bed early doors , The Warrington players will have been out on their feet .

The one pointer gave players a rest and gave Blake practice should he need to do a similar kick in a closer game .

I’ll stick by my original post, interesting opinions on the practising for golden point, to me he was pxxx taking.

100% agreed, and to say he was practicing is even more of a p15s take. But the biggest take was the team selection, tactics and attitude.

He might well have been, but it was the least of things that upset me on Friday night.

We will bounce back Smiggs.

Like last year?

Well it’s not like last year really, it was a different format, which really failed, and created meaningless fixtures, plus if memory serves we were crippled by an injury list which deprived us of our virtual first team, we muddled through.

Now this year we’ve been average, but apart from Wakey and Wire could have won the rest. So hopefully with a complete local front row, Taylor Houghton Bowden, “how many teams can say that” Jake & Jamie back, last year was last year.

being local counts for diddly squat, I hope you are right that FC we will come good.

I think he'd earned the right to take the urine to be fair.

"rather the stick another 6 points against you, I'll simply drop a goal" Id say he was passing on a professional courtesy so we didn't have our heaviest defeat overall defeat on our own ground.

Lol very gracious of you, if I had brought my Kalashnikov with me, Warry would of been one Australian down.

Thought you would. A minority of two so far.

Hello Keith

Was you a bay city roller fan, their was thousands of em.

Sorry, you will have to explain the relevance of that question.

No problem for mine if Austin was taking the p""s ,after all our team had been
taking the p""s up till then.

We’re going for the cup this year

austin should have back heeled the drop goal over with his eyes closed then thumbed his nose to the 200 or so Hull fans who had stayed til the end.

Not sure you could do this without knocking on.

You're getting austin mixed up with minichello

You can forgive Mini a few errors, we’ve all been there, up all night with babes

Correct. Its just got bigger.
