George Delaney. Simply superb. 

Hes been superb, looks a hell of a prospect.

There was a time in the Cunningham era where, if Wire were leading by 18 with 12 minutes to go, you just knew Saints would win. Wire don’t appear to be that team. 

they always become shambolic when they are rattled. Lost all composure.

[DavidM]

Been a few phantom high tackles

[Jim Prendle]

More play acting from Ritson.

Saints are becoming the poster boys for this kind of rubbish.

[Jughead]

There was a massive clammer for this Harrison to be in the England team. He’s a cumbersome oaf. I was gutted he went off for Kasiano and pleaded to see he’s on. 

[Jughead]

Josh McGuire’s on the pitch?! When did he turn up?

They are being coached by a bloke who tried to take off in every game he played.

Becoming?

Dufty has no interest in competing for them kicks.

I was trying to be polite.

Dufty is rubbish.

Your man, the Billinge Beak went for a dive there. Those Tesco supported cherry and white specs doing your accounts then, I take it?

[WN83]

Worrying performances from a Wire perspective this past 2 weeks. Yes they’re missing some forwards but Saints are missing more and Wigan were weakened as well and they’ve not been able to deal with the aggression and intensity the opposition have played with. 
 

On the plus side it’s early doors and it’s probably a bit of a reality check. They have a few months to try and find the gears they’ll need to if they’re to play at the intensity of their opponents of the last 2 weeks. 

[GeordieSaint]

Ritson try??

He’s been great tonight.

He’s probably trying to get up to speed after his lay off but he looks shattered and he did last week. 

[DavidM]

Touch judges determined not to make any decisions

[Jughead]

Hurrell’s been desperate for that try assist all night and a try for Tee. 

I rate Ashton a lot but he’s not had a look in against Ritson. 

[andyscoot]

Two nice Wingers tries

[sentoffagain2]

Ritson deserved that try he lit up the Championship when playing for Barrow.

[FearTheVee]

Great performance - well done Lads

[GeordieSaint]

Superb performance from Saints. Poor from Warrington. 

Lomax was sublime. Welsby decent. Lees excellent. Ritson and Bennison really stepped up. Really excited by Delaney - some some potential. 

[Man of Kent]

Wire still have that soft underbelly lurking. Yes they are missing key players but I’d question their desire tonight.

Wire were dire,the bubble has burst.

I thought Sam Royle put in a great stint in front of his Dad Jim

[StandOffHalf]

Super win by Saints. I thought they had a balance and cohesion, despite the raft of absentees.

That was easier than it should have been. Vaughan missing was huge for Warrington.
