Can't be bothered reading 11 pages.
King was excellent, PJ was good, Morley was good, Bridge did a couple of nice things.
Monaghan aka 'Monagun' if you listened to GMR was painfully slow, slow handling, passing, running, kicking etc. Just, no good really.
Lots of daft errors, Warrington stylee. Clarke, Higham, Harrison, Westwood, you name it, they dropped it. Grix doesn't have the handling to play centre, he's in the side right now purely on the strength of being a solid defender, that's grating on me.
Both teams looked clueless, tired, Alker gave them a lift when he came on with about 15 mins left, Higham didn't for us. Not a game that'll last in the moemory very long, lots of one up stuff, poor conditions, proper 'arm wrestle', whoever came away with the win, was going to do it by just out boring the other side, we cracked first. I'd like to see the penalty again that got Salford upfield, if were stripping the ball with four minutes left, we really are thick, they were going nowhere at the time.
Boring game to talk about really, hopefully Monday will be more spectator friendly, we need to get some pace into the backline, we've got King & 3 forwards as our 2-5, we need to find a way to get Riley/Penny or both into the side as pose no threat from deep, and we need field position to score, you'd fancy your chances of beating us if you could keep us away from your 20m line.
Smith summed it all up on GMR, defence very good, offence lacking. Something to build on, no dramas. End of.
