The ref did his best to get Wire back into the game. Going to the video ref to see if anyone is onside for Foster's last try. But not going to the screen for Westwood's try from the kick. Wire fans should try singing and getting behind their team instead of booing the ref all the time.
James Graham is sensational.

A real quality game, great crowd and plenty of noise too how rl should be played. Saints have sure got a bright future ahead of them. How Westwood didn't get m o m astounded me.

Questions have got to be asked why we can't seem to sell this sport nationally. Barely a mention of this game on the BBC website, lost amongst football friendlies, athletics, hockey, golf and cycling!

Westwood got Man of the Match in the stadium? I presume having not watched the sky game that Roby for MOM from the commentators both warranted praise though.

I am continually impressed with Super Doper League every time I go to Warrington, they certainly know how to do it off the field, pre match, food, hospitality, Carney introducing the teams etc etc. The result was slightly unfair to Warrington and found myself parroting myself from Thursday Take the 2 Take the 2!!!! how that may have changed the game who knows.

I am pleased to say that everyone now thinks I am the jinx of warrington so I will continue to go when I can.  They have it off to an art, Alec Murphy is a true gent, Also met up with Harry Pinder who I knew nothing about. Phil Clarke and also Eamon Mc Manus who I planted a small seed with in relation to season tickets.  The family of Rugby League is expanding why do I get the feeling that we are excluding ourselves?

Haven't watched the match yet, got it recorded so will watch it when my mum gets home tomorrow and pretend I don't know the result. Just so I can rub it in  Grin

Caught the last three minutes in a bar in 'Pool. Seeing the faces of the wire fans at the end made it brilliant for me!  Grin

Look forward to watching it.

I think they will beat Saints at Wembley if both sides get there.

To be fair Dawn the game is really good and just proves that Superleague is a marathon rather than a sprint, to think when I first watched SuperLeague Widnes were on a par with warrington..... makes you think we threw it away really?

26 - 24 to Saints... Westwood scored Warrington's final points but couldn't convert his own try. Warrington threw it away really in more ways than one.
Jamie Foster had a brilliant game and intercepted a pass bound to Riley that he had no rights to pinch. It certainly saved the win for Saints.

I was massively impressed with Matty Ashurst! He was up against a pack of Morley, Carvell, Solomona, L Anderson, Westwood etc (Wire reckon best pack in leagu{wrongly}) and he stood up and quite often was seen shooting out of the line and smashing one of the big guns! His handling was also more superor to his opposite more experienced and renoun players... great performance!

Wire (unfortunatley) have a cracking side now but let's face it even a draw wouldn't of been great looking at the two sides... Saints kids were amazing and set's a great frame for the future no doubt!

They run it the right way... as do Wigan, Leeds and TBH Hull FC (Bulls trying) have a squad full of academy products with good skill and then for your other spots you can spend big on only the BEST imports... likes of Gidley & co.

Think I am right in saying that Morley & Westwood played the full 80 mins. Impressive, particularly Morley with his age and playing style.
