I think we might have yes, but its impossible to say. The lads that played gave it their all so lets be not say 'what if'

google seems to think we would have done worse with them. google is always right

Does it really matter?? You play with what you have and unfortunately we were beaten by the better team, we will do them next time though

( i hope)

I like that, can you ask it questions and it will give you an answer regarding results?

God i hope the next time is wembley

It would have been worth it all to beat them at wembley. And to answer the question im not sure as to weather we would have done. I think we might have won the game with Briers, we seemed very flat and unorganised without him (again). Hicks wouldnt have made much of a difference. We missed Morley but take any player like him out of a team and they will miss him. I think the main miss was Briers, I think if Briers had played we might have won that game.

higham is the main miss ,the work he does a million tackels and so much work round the ruck ,hurry up mick ,we need you

Whats Briers, Morley and Hicks winning percentage in Warrington teams against St Helens?

To be fair, we missed Morley big style tonight. We were soft down the middle and you just couldn't see that happening with Morley there. Saying that, we struggled with injuries during the game which would throw us off anyway.

Some of our distribution during the game was very very poor too, which Briers would have sorted.

We didn't miss Hicks in the slightest, as he is massively over-rated IMO, and doesn't do anything any of our other players doesn't do.

Errr.............................NO

Yes I do. Gutted they didn't play.

No...its a mental thing. we cannot crack them home or away, our only home is to meet them them on neutral venue.

Biggest difference in terms of player for player was Eastmond v Bridge.

Bridge did OK and was probably 7/10, but Eastmond was better, much better.

Agreed. I thought Carney was good too, made tough yards as you'd expect every time he carried the football, looked for work and will only get better.

i think if clarke and grix had stayed on we'd have won

clarke would have improved our kicking game, helped monaghan (who i thought had a brilliant game) and stiffened up defence

if morley/briers/hicks had been on plus saints had their big guns it would have been one hell of a game here's hoping we see a rematch somewhere towards the end of the season

All ifs and buts but we had long, gidley, Cunningham and cayless out also.

We will never know.

End of discussion.

Yes but Saints didn't have 2 players get injured in the early stages of the game.

In the end Warrington had 7 players out Briers, Morley, Hicks, Higham, Grix, Clarke, Rauhihi.

gilmour was injured in first half and faasavalu went off injured as well so cant really say anything.

now take that 7/10 for bridge and stick an asterisk next to it as he's probably trained at right centre all week, only having to step in due to grix' injury, and not really having a hb partner for the second half cept when Vanderson was giving monas a rest at hooker.

we lost two playmaker's last night which totally fecked things up.

Salford had 7 players missing last week and still beat Saints.

We need to face it people!! We're not as good as we think we are!!

That was what I thought. The loss of Long did them a favour.

I've just spent the best part of a hour reading through the threads on here and I cant believe some of the blinkered rubbish I've been reading.

Just a couple of points to take from last nights game.
1/The players missing for both teams last night would'nt have altered the game if they had played.
2/We are still a class apart from st Helens and Leeds.
3/The ref was consistant for both teams-good or bad whichever way you view his performance
4/ St Helens have a play 80 minutes mentality.
5/Kyle Eastmond is potentially the most exciting halfback prospect to come into RL since Andy Gregory.
6/Saints have proven that you dont have to go to the South seas to find talent,ims they had 5 players playing,who had come up through their ranks.

Monaghan? Good Game? Rubbish.

Without reading through the 3 pages, the answer is NO.

1st half decent out of dummy half, after that poor.
