Really did well to say our reshuffled half back combo got shuffled again early on and then we lost Fusitua. In the heat of the moment I thought Bentley's sending off was harsh, but I suspect replays might tell me another story. The Dywer sin binning though, I thought that was a terrible call. Lots of really good stuff.Thought Tetavano did great as a pure prop and Sezer is exactly what we need. Was Fusitua a head knock? Thought he was holding his hand/wrist.

He was immense IMO

Cam Smith excellent, and Sezer was all class, thought Handley ran string aswell

Walker was very good considering the time hes been out, looks a lot stronger

Bentley cost us that game but the knock on tries and the forward pass try really grate - it's almost impossible to overcome all that on top of being down to 12. The Dwyer one was quite marginal.

All in all very positive apart from Bentley and the result. Warrington looked quite poor.

What knock ons are you lot even bleeting about? Because if we're talking about Matuatia, it was pulled from his hands in a two on one tackle and he STILL regained possession before the ball hit the floor.

weird that refs are all about protecting players especially from head injuries, unless its direct contact to the head of Fusitua in which case its not even a penalty - embarrasing

I'm all for cards for player safety, but how can Dwyer be binned, and then, the very next tackle is this, and not even a penalty, it's the inconsistency that annoys me This Image is Hosted on Imgur : Users should see the AUP for allowable uses

The Bentley one, no problem with the decision, Bentleys an idiot, he'd lost his cool a couple of tackles earlier when he'd steamed across the pitch into a tackle he didnt need to and left our right side defense really low on numbers, Warrington attacked where he should of been, resulting in him chasing back across and getting sent off. I fear that anyone thinking he'l learn could be in for a long wait, his dicipline in the second half of last season and now today, has been absolutely atrocious. Hope im wrong and he suddenly sorts it out.

Other than that call, i thought Kendall was rubbish, how the head shot that knocked fusitua out was missed, or ignored, il never know. Red all day long in todays game.

It was clear from one angle but I suspect not from the referee's perspective. Definite penalty though had it been seen, possibly not a card as I don't think there was lifting although I've not seen a replay, just that still.

Never rated James Bentley, flaming liability, no wonder Saints wanted to offload him onto someone else, won't be the last game he's sent off in either! Hope Agar gives him a broadside!

Agar's not blameless. How many needless headshots and late tackles have we seen disrupt our plans? A coach of the standard he aspires to be would knock this on the head, if you'll pardon the pun.
