Terrific performance. Thought the pack was great tonight. Real impact from Myler, Cuthbo and Smith off the bench and the backs was clinical. Team defended well and Gale organised the team magnificently.

Really chuffed to bits with that. Best atmosphere since new stands was built and great spirit in the team.

Tone and cadence of the match was decided when Prior absolutely cleaned out Austin early doors, no ifs no buts.

After that Austin didnt want to know and Widdop was utterly anonymous all game, bar his hospital ball offloads.

This left Warrington utterly reliant on Steff, who true to form at Headingley served up a big bowl of anonymity.

We played some great RL, we outclassed wires very expensively assembled mercenaries who despite some flashes of resistance, really cba with the grind.

Wire will get better I reckon as the tracks dry out etc but for now?

I’ll revel a bit in rubbing their noses in it.

That try proves why the refs call is nonsense. That was never a try.

The only defence for the call is that it was made by the linesman. He was certain. Probably wrong, but at least it was called for the right reasons rather than the usual guess work.

Myler has had his critics and rightfully so however he has looked very good this season fair play to the lad obviously has a great attitude

I loved what he said at the end about being challenged to earn a place in the 17. He's taken that on and is in there on merit, speaks very well of his character - and character is always good for the team.

The person who saw it the clearest called it a try, I haven’t a clue wether he got it down or not but the VR had to give it as he couldn’t see either way.

Anyway, what a difference a year makes! I don’t care how poor Warrington were, that was as enjoyable a performance as ive seen from us in a long while, the 0 pleases me more as does the team spirit so well done to all involved, I just hope we can keep the momentum up it would be really nice after the last two years to get to 20 points in the first half of the season which should see us safe and be able to really enjoy going to games again

First things first huge credit to Agar we looked well organised without the ball & had loads of options when we attacked.
Also the Team spirit & Rhinos ethos has returned they tackled hard ran hard & played as a TEAM.
Our pack were immense which gave Gale his platform to lead the way.
Walker was excellent until he went off & Myler carried that on i dont think we had 1 player under 8/10.
We need Cam Smith tied down long term he Oledski & eventually Walters Holroyd & co can lead our pack for the next decade. Newman proves his class every game & despite been slated by many Handley will score plenty of tries for us.

Not getting carried away but that was so pleasing and fun to watch. Got to give credit to Prior, his tackle on Austin set the tone early on and Austin ran away from Prior after that. Warrington really had an off day and they are better than they showed tonight. We will have tougher games than tonight and still waiting to see what we can do against a team playing well. Could of put half a dozen names in the hat for MOM and I'd be happy with any picked out. Great team performance and looking forward to games again MOT

Need to add that it's now over 120 minutes of play since a side scored against us

Credit agar staring with a big pack, really set the tone.

He had the advantage of knowing the state of the pitch.

Very good all round team performance. Gale Lui Smith Prior Myler the stand outs. Big raps to Agar and coaching team who seem to be be building a very good team spirit.
