Good Huddersfield defence, poor Warrington attack, both?

Could an attendee please give their comments?

Please, no Smith is crap, the wheels are coming off, etc.

Wouldn't mind seeing some stats from today sounded like we dropped alot of ball.

Fundamentally the biggest problem was our failure to complete sets and retain the ball. I think they must have only completed one set in the second half.

Worryingly one or two bad habits are creeping back into the play again, for instance our reaction to the transition from a breakdown in an attack or the attack-defence transition after a kick for field position is very poor.

In addition it was fairly clear that one or two of our players were playing with injuries.

With the semi-final in mind we look bang out of form whilst Wigan have now won four on the bounce.

Both really. Hudds defended well and our attack was awful, i wouldn't like to see our completion rate. Lots and lots of dropped ball!

The whole thing has done a 180 its us with the injuries and bad form now.

Very poor through out apart from thr first 10 minutes. Time's it felt like it was one man play. Very stop and start in the second half, no flow at all. Jono had a STINKER ! Dragged into touch, droped ball etc ...
Still hungover after loss to St's.
Seen ALOT better

It all looked promising within the first ten minutes. But after piling on so much pressure, failing to score and then conceding the first try in the way we did, there was only going to be one winner.

There was too much dropped ball on their line in the first ten and afterwards. Conceding a penalty gave them 30/40 metres from the kick every time, but we conceded too many.

I though Brett Hodgson was superb. He was on the end of almost every offload and created outrageous passes that gave the wingers space to run on kick returns. Our kicking game was nothing short of diabolical.
Eorl Crabtree was a thorn in our side as soon as he got on. Not one player in defence had the guts to put a shot on him like Morley did last year. He would not have had half a good a game if we had closed him down early.

Not sure how much we can blame injuries, it was a first team out there today. Does Harrison still count as a second stringer?

probably count him as in the middle, still not much experience.

morley,higham,rauhihi,vinnie,hicks,grix are all first teamers though who didn't play. not sure if there are any others.

btw, im not blaming injuries we played awful and did not deserve anything from the game.

Wigan might have won 4 on the bounce but were poor today in grinding out a win against a marginally worse Bradford side. Possibly a good sign for us though that we can win ugly, and in poor conditions especially in the first half.

We're not without our injuries either - Lockers, McIlorum, Smith, also Bailey limped off today after about half an hour.

It looked like Clarke (for sure) and King (maybe) were in the team but were carrying injuries. Briers wasn't moving all that freely either but was still probably our best player.

Clarke was not training beforehand, I was very surprised to see him on the bench.
