Thoughts on the game Sat??

I suspect our pack will need to step up to handle Hill, Sims etc

Some of our defence at KR and at Catalans was pretty good. With the right mindset they can match the biggest fellas.
I think the important thing is that we play our own game, we got sucked in up at hull, then showed when we threw the ball about that we could open up the defence and post points.

Inside game we lose...outside we stand our ground. Don't get dictated to by Wire and play our own expansive game......I can see an upset here.

Hoping wire come down thinking they are going to stroll it.
Remember that game where the bloke from Warrington took his shirt off in disgust and tried to burn it while shouting abuse at his team

March 14th 2009 We beat them 60-8 and the biggest focus of their anger was Matt King! Our team that day was Jon WELLS; Chris MELLING, Matt GAFA, David HOWELL, Will SHARP; Luke DORN, Danny ORR; Karl TEMATA, Chad RANDALL, Danny WARD, Chad ROBINSON, Tony CLUBB, Joe MBU. Subs: Daniel HECKENBERG, Jason GOLDEN, Luke GALE, Louie McCARTHY-SCARSBROOK. Tries from Gale (2), Dorn, Gafa, Howell, Melling, Orr, Randall, Temata and Ward. Danny Orr kicked 10 goals and there were 3,206 witnessing it!

Didn't they have Lowes in charge at the time? I think we nearly ended up with him as our coach.

Re: Wires Sat Night : Wed Aug 30, 2017 10:12 am  

Yes Lowes was head coach then - but not for long! He was shall we say volatile at that time; I had a run in with him on the touchline that resulted in disciplinary action! Have to say though when he was coach at Bradford I remember a really amusing episode at the Hive when he was slowly inching down through the Stand to get to speak to players in a position he shouldn't have been, chased by Connolly the Match Commissioner in a Benny Hill stylie. All with a smile on his face - great rapport with us in the crowd that day.
