Well we got the result but how convincing was it? Looks like we missed a lot of kicks today. Was this because they were difficult kicks or bad conditions or poor kicking. I also see we played without Paul March, who played at halfback and did we miss him. Any other comments welcome.

Didn't make the game today but a decent result and some good tries scored by all accounts Were in the hat for the next round that's all that matters in the cup! Let's hope we get a decent draw in the next round!

When is the draw ?

Sun 20th march!

Didn't get out of second gear today but didn't need to, didn't miss Marchy at stand off, Wizards were poor apart from kick offs where they went for short ones and either found touch or regained possession through us knocking on. Missed kicks were from touch line to be honest. Very poor crowd, looks like Hawks are some peoples second team to Warriors

Wizards had a number of injuries and Ladd unavailable, had 2 subs that didn't go on, and season doesn't start for 6 weeks. But yes we were poor and give it our all. The Hunslet players and staff looked after us and were very complimentary, the lads enjoyed their day, thanks to Hunslet.

Was a good performance by Hunslet. About 20-0 up on about 15 mins and there was always gonna be only one winner. The Wizards heads went down early but fought themselves back and gave a good performance. Some of the referee and linesman decisions were a tad dubious and kept them with plenty of possession.
I fair few of the hunslet tries were scored out wide in the corners, thats why some of the kicks were missed. Well done hunslet and we're in the draw for the next round.

amazing effort to only use 15 players (and i only counted 4 out of the 12 interchanges used)

[jonnyg28]

That's right, 4 interchanges and no first choice halfbacks. Just gutted it wasn't a little closer. But the experience will make us ready to win our grand final again, we hope ha ha

job done, game was over as a contest as early as the 15th min when we had already scored 4 tries and had another dissalowed.It looked like we were gonna rewrite the record books but poor goalkicking and some improvement from the wizards kept the score to a reasonable level at 24-4 ( 5 tries ) at ht.Cakacaka
had a strong 1st 25 mins before going off and looks a decent signing.The second half started much as the 1st one had with Chappy dictating and more tries followed with yet more goalkicks missed though to be fair most were wide out,Grimmer ghosted through for a neat solo effort and Harding at last getting a game crossed twice though even i,ll admit he,s got work to do under the high ball, but id still like to see him at centre.The final score of 48-10 i think included 10 tries and the 2 conceded were as at sheffield off kicks , which is a concern - when Thorman will be here next week.

[Parksider]

Thorman might need a rest after all those points he's scored today.

Take nothing away from the Wizards, every man did his club proud today. Considering they are not even close to starting the summer conference league yet, that was a good display against a team 2 divisions higher. Well done warrington and all the best for the 2011 season.

YES --just put one on e-bay £0.75 plus postage, includes official team sheet.

Well done to the Wizards tried to play rugby throughout the game. Just to point out Hunslet were also without a number of key players, and that the touch judge on the far side in the first half should have gone to Specsavers. --- thought the referee was ok but he was getting bad advice from his touch judges.

Really? I thought none of the three officials had ever seen a rugby match before, never mind put in charge of one. His decisions were usually wrong and to be honest, I paid my money like everybody else and I don't agree to having to watch claptrap like that from any referee, no matter how inexperienced. I feel cheated!

[gabby]

Harding at last getting a game crossed twice though even i,ll admit he,s got work to do under the high ball, but id still like to see him at centre.

I heard he's going to Gateshead on loan.
