Isn't it strange weve not heard anything from the wolves fans this year and suddenly they start posting on here.

Anyone would think they are starting to fear us

Of course they do. Some of the more bitter Wire trolls will be on here again soon posting propaganda and drivel like when they became the 'challenge cup champions' in a desperate attempt to get the title 'champions' because they havn't been real champions since the 1950's

If I was a Warrington fan I'd be worried, it's a old team now and they seem to be on the slide to what they was last year.

If don't win it this year then I can't see them doing it anytime soon.

They wouldn't have kicked the goal anyway, (would they!!!!)

I thought there was alot of dodgy decisions both for and against us.

I have no problem with the moving off the mark decision, but it needs to be enforced more often, too many times ref allow players to gain ground unfairly. The ruck is often in favour of the attacking player regardless of how they act. For mine the Catalan player did move off the mark, he stood up with Lance on his back, Lance did not have chance to even move it was that quick anyone thinking Lance could have done anything else has simply never tackled anyone. To regain your feet you have to be able to push up of the ground. But similarly when Lance conned the ref earlier on I thought that was moving off the mark, he deliberately dove between the players legs, the player could not do anything other than stand over Lance given that he was throwing himself down.

At one point Meli had moved so far off the mark he voluntarily went back about 5m as even he could not believe that they would allow such a rediculous amount of yards gained. Ironically if he had not gone back himself no doubt the ref would have just told him to play it where he ended up.

Yes Defended can lay on at the play the ball, but attackers for mine get far too much advantage in this area and can mess about just as much. Does anyone ever see a foot touch a ball any more?????

I'm not sure how they can tidy this up, but it can get a right mess at times.

Also there was a kick off which went out on the full. Now is it just me, but did not Meli catch the ball before it hit the ground???? I thought this was now deamed as the attacking players making the ball dead, regardless of how far over the line the ball is, it has to hit the ground before the player can catch the ball.

Should have been a penalty to Catalans surely by the current rules? Or is it litterally only for taking the ball out of play over the dead ball line and not the touch line.

I could go on, not sure whether meli touched the ball in flight either, not sure the catalan player charged down the lomax kick, etc etc etc

and it was not the last play, who knows what the up shot would have been after that, a short kick off a penalty a drop goal, a missed conversion. Like I said in a normal game it would be a try, but on the video the catalan player obviously moved makinsons flight for the ball and gets nowhere near the ball himself. A good reason why we should have videos at all or none of the matches, as that decision was based soley on having the video, it's not a decision that can be made the naked eye.

I enjoyed it and the last 15 mins was exciting and edge of your seat stuff.

How did Warrington do in France in the super league?

I sense you fear us now, you know we are coming for you and as history proves, you'll choke in the play offs again.

No, we choke in the final but you have to be in them to win them.

Re: Ref's win again : Sat Jul 21, 2012 1:10 pm  

I think it was the timing of the jump that led to the decision. Makinson was in the air and Millard hit him a split second before jumping. If they'd have collided in midair then it would have been given. Having said that, I thought it was harsh - I'd have had no complaints had it been given.

Again; what solitary facet of yesterday's game was there to strike feat into anyone?

Have you concluded the reasoning behind your 'top class' comment, yet?
