It's a game that you could analyse to death really, our defence in our own 20m or lack of it lost us the game.

Performance wise, Monaghan was excellent, easily his best game for Warrington. The left hand side for the first time in years looked threatening every time they touched the ball, Vinnie Anderson seems to have found his position.

Bridge looked lost in the halves, first half especially, couple of nice breaks in the second half, but he's looking increasingly like a right centre.

Cooper was excellent from the bench, Carvell was very good again, Rauhihi too, but he's always walking a tightrope between hero & villain with his offloading game, I thought he cost us when we'd get it back to 30-28 and he tried to keep the ball alive again, early in the tackle count, it was a poor play.

Clarke was very good, I thought in the second half he was excellent. Riley again, very good, starting to look like a fullback with every game, and is possibly the form fullback in SL right now.

Gutted really, I thought we were good, if Briers play we win, that simple. His kicking game would win us the game, I thought that's all we lacked really.

I thought our line speed was quite poor and our try line defence, which has been quite good redently, was the weakest part of our game.

our line defence was poor again and we got hit with 2 bad decisions by the ref which then resulted in KR going up the field and scoring.

Attacking wise we were excellent, yes we bombed a couple but overall we looked dangerous and Monas & Bridge linked well.

we looked safe in defence till they got in the 20 and we crumbled again

Nothing in it. A couple of bad decisions, some indiscispline and an average kicking came and still gave KR a real test. According to Phil Clarke HKR are ready to split Leeds and Saints.

not to much to complain about just Rahs silly pens he gives away i think Ts will be pleased with what he saw. the 40/20 was the moment you knew we would lose

vinnie had a great game along with monas and young cooper from the bench i thiught higham lacked a bit today

'Fraid by thoughts are just a retread again of whats been said.
The foundations we set out which has won us games weren't there yesterday, with poor discipline letting us down.

Out of all the players, it may have been Morley that we missed the most over Briers.

I would have kept Bridge in the Centre position but you hope if Ts knew Briers wouldn't have played, Bridge would have been preparing all week.

I thought Wire did alright. I'd even go as far to say that was our toughest win so far this season.
