We played with no platform for most of the game and we did create 3 tries with very little good ball, cant blame the halves every time we loose (I actually agree that Moon isnt the right option at 7, but dont think this game proves that)
See how Patton performs with opposition defenders rushing him every kick
Not been mentioned yet but our centres (and Briscoe) were pretty awful tonight, we often say they dont get enough ball but they got some good ball tonight and butchered it
I didn't say we lost because of our halfs. I said swap Patton and we would have won. He was the reason for their dominance. Our kicking game was paramount to us not being capable. A good kicking game is important in that sort of game, and we don't have a player capable of performing that. I think Moon has being a bit of a shining light to be honest, but in a different way.
I agree on Briscoe. I have often being accused of favouring him, but this year he has being woeful. His efforts in defence and kicks are simply not good enough.
Overall I thought we did better than expected. However, its ok saying we would have lost by a bigger margin last season, but Warrington would also have lost by a big margin last year to last years Warrington. They were not that good last night, and were aided by a poor ref and our own dumbness.
