The commentary on the game was embarrassing....semi final of the best known competition on RL and they put someone commentating who cannot even be bothered to learn the players names, even when you can clearly see their squad numbers! 'Harrison making the break & passing to Drinkwater' my 4rse!

I can sort of see the point the ones and the sevens on this years numbers are really similiar. No excuse for the Harrison/Currie one though.

Great game yesterday, watching it back twice now already.

Not flawless but very good, Thewlis kicking out on the full and not kicking a penalty dead. In another game would maybe have cost us but can forgive him that. I'd be tempted to give him the catalans game off to give a weeks healing to that head wound, put Wrench on the wing, don't know who would kick though.

Drinkwater has kicked over 170 goals in first-grade. Assuming he has been practising, he would be an able deputy.

Thewlis is getting a lot of head knocks and now two nasty cuts. I agree a rest on the basis of duty of care.

Well done Warrington and absolutely over the moon for my good mates in Stockton Heath and Appleton Thorn who will no doubt enjoy their day at Wembley.

Don't be afraid of the crustmunchers and keep the faith.

As a Leyther in exile, I will be primrose and blue for the day. Well played and good luck ! I hope the final is a cracker.

I know we (me) have been a bit sidetracked by the fans behaviour but other than that I thought yesterday's game was a cracker.

One of my highlights yesterday was the look on Dufty's and Vaughan's faces when they ran towards the sticks before kick off...biggest grins ever they looked so excited and I knew then that we'd be winning that game.

Also really enjoyed watching Gleeson working with the backs pre kickoff. We look like a team that means business, a team with a plan just hope we can keep this feelgood factor going.

I’m assuming Gleeson’s thick grey cardigan holds some superstitious value…..otherwise I’m concerned why the maniac was wearing it in the blistering heat.

Very tough run up to the final now, Catalans then Wigan the week before we play them again in the final.
