29 Sept: SL Play Off Semi Final 1: Warrington Wolves v St Helens KO 8pm (TV)

[Old Frightful]

Didn't ground it.

[chuffer]

Walmsley first touch, walks three yards foreward off the mark and gets a penalty.

Even stevo mentioned it, no wonder he makes so many metres! Some of them running too...

[Skids]

No try, short then held up.

[chuffer]

Great pace and pass from swift

[chuffer]

Lovely try

[GeordieSaint]

Ryan Atkins... if he had half a brain he'd be an international.

[yipyee]

Warrington didn't ground that try #cheats

[Man of Kent]

Exquisite try. It's been all Wire up to now. Let's see what they are made of.

[JohnM]

At this rate, not going to end well for Saints.

...on the other hand...

[Futtocks]

The singing of "Swing low, sweet Chariot" is a wonderfully watertight argument for the RFL employing snipers at all stadia.

[Old Frightful]

...on the other hand...

...Ratchford can hold the ball far better.

[Dave T]

lack of ruthlesness in attack. A lot of decent position from the forwards and the likes of Gidley and Ratchford should be stepping up where Briers and Hodgson would have previously.

[GURNER]

Didn't ground it.

 

No try, short then held up.

 

Warrington didn't ground that try #cheats

spot on, just us four that spotted it then? Short then held up for mine

I thought it was amusing

Indeed. Wire ate up the yards like a ravenous tiger but had all the killer instinct of a pigeon's fart

Isn't that what happened against Wigan, got a lead and then failed to kill Wigan off, Wigan gained confidence (eventually) and caught Wire on the hop.

 

Not exactly the same but a similar feel.

[CiderWire]

Wire need to get Saints out of their comfort zone if they want a chance of winning this game.................How that is done, who knows?

[Ullman]

I couldn't see any evidence that Gidley got the ball down on or over the line.

Give it ten minutes at this score or worse and Wire will start craphousing, that's their usual tactic when things go against. It starts with niggling and wind ups and the pushing the bounderies of legality to suck the opposition in.

Biggest pot and kettle post I've ever seen

Rubbish, Wigan start from first minute.

Lol, I believe alanis is on the phone for you...

[Wollo Wollo Wayoo]

Wire can thank Wilkin for giving them the initial platform for that try.

[chuffer]

This is closer than I thought it would be with 20 to go

[Padge]

Warrington are slowly going through a breakdown. They need someone to take control.
