| Got out of jail two weeks running.
I think todays win had a lot more to do about greater fitness than team structures.

| Sign of a good side playing poorly and winning or poor side getting lucky and papering over huge cracks?
In my opinion it's the latter, but got to be happy with 2 more points if nothing else.

| Amazed how the team started playing better & handling better in the last 15 minutes when the chips were down .Are the boys spending too much time thinking & coming up with mistakes the rest of the time? Maybe just getting stuck in & throwing the ball around 2011 style would bring its own rewards.
At least the pitch was in good condition .

| It's not pretty to watch at the moment, we look far more creative and dangerous when ratchford is involved in attack. Browns last play options when we needed to score were dreadful, that would be alright if we were winning by 20 and playing just for position. Harvey Livett looks far too slow for centre, Evans got caught out too easily but in general played alright. Glad they stuck to the task and got the win, the league table would look so much more grim if we had lost that.

| Just watching the end back, WTF did thaler need to check the screen for lineham's try?
There was no question of him being in touch, he was miles away from the line, that was a load of crap

My thoughts too. Every game he refs is always about him.

Because we were playing against him pretty much from the start, no way were we winning that game if he could help it.

| Yes a win is better than a loss esp position we're in but let's not get carried away here.Wakey should have had that game wrapped up before half time.Better team imo from what I watched + taken from their board they are gutted to have lost to 1 of the worst Warrington teams in a long time.

Well he is from Wakefield.
Thought he made some good calls for both sides, but some strange ones against us occasionally.

I suggest you watch the game again & see how many calls he got wrong.
Regarding the winning try, yes it looked fine but in the concept of the game if he'd just given it & there was a foot in touch or a knock-on he'd be on the naughty step again.
The technology is there, why not use it?

You were nearly correct, deckchair. I birdied the fourth. Average drive into light rough. Lovely 7 iron into15 feet. The putt never looked like missing.
The 5th.....pah
3 putt bogey...... Criminal.
Glad we won.
From the above posts, sounds like we were crap.

Certainly more natural as a centre than a winger.

Correct decision to play golf lefty. .today was the worst professional Warrington side I have ever seen. ....that said ...at the end, I danced like a sailor in trafalgar square on VE night..... you'd have thought we had won our first grand final. .....alas we had just beat Wakefield in the dying seconds. ......
Seriously woeful. ..Atkins try was a perfect example of how bad we are ....he should have drawn the full back and passed left to lineham for a walk in ...Atkins didn't contemplate passing and was incredibly fortunate he stepped out of a tackle and finished himself. ..but it was a massive pointer to how we cannot do the basics. ..

That's one theory. I thought Jowitt defended the situation well, held off for Batchelor to try and gain ground but Atkins was too quick, too strong and did well to get under the sticks.
Hicks did something similar against Catalan and gets lauded, Atkins does it and he makes a balls of a chance. Some people can't give credit where its due, he was good today, and has been for 18 months

And if he had got tackled when he had Lineham outside him for a clear run in you would be fine, i said at the time had he not scored he would of been cruicified.

firstly I'm not having a go at Atkins specifically. He's not a great passer of the ball and never has been, today it was a highlight of how the whole team is lacking an application of the basics....
If you thought Atkins did the correct thing in looking to his right to NO support player at all ( not that clear from this small photo) and ignoring a fast finisher supporting him on his immediate left then I'm talking to a brick wall.....
I like Atkins he's big strong and fast .....but he cant pass the ball and this proves it....
is it a bad thing?? sometimes yes ....sometimes like today ...he got away with it.....
what Chris Hicks has got to do with this i dont know....

| Atkins has been one of our top performers this season....he's been very good. Jack Hughes needs to have a spell in the reserves. He was good last season but has been our worst player this season....and that takes some doing.

I agree he has been poor especially compared to last season but he's not been as bad as Evans or Russell who cost us points every time they play. The worst thing about hughes is you know when he gets the ball that's the move finished and we're moving on to the next tackle (or handing over possession). Is he on the wrong side or something? He doesn't seem to want to pass outside. I hope he finds his form again soon, we're missing the dependable Jack Hughes of last season.
