Ricky Bibey : Fri Feb 27, 2009 10:27 pm  

Unsung hero for you guys tonight, best game i have ever seen him play.

I hold my hand up to slating him, mainly because he is a lad who could have been a real big player in the game but never knuckled down, looking at him physically he looks a different player to the Bibey of previous seasons. He looks leaner and much more effective.

His first spell tonight was crucial in my opinion in laying the platform for the win tonight.

I really hope he can carry his form on throughout the year, with another frontrow injury it looks like you could do with him.

Wilkes another lad who really performed tonight.

Yep Ricky went well tonight and long may it continue.

Agreed thought Bibey, along with Wilkes were tremendous tonight. Stosic has been a revelation so far and to lose him so early and not see him return meant others had to put their hands up.

Thought those two were terrific up front tonight against Warrington's star studded pack!

We could have wilted after Stosic went off, particularly with the bench we had - but they didnt = they all stood up to be counted and showed fantastic heart.

well done ricky you will be getting my man of the match vote stood up to be counted when we needed him most, losing stosic so early best game for the club in my opinion many good performances but gets my vote.

Agree that Ricky Bibey had a very good game tonight as did Oli Wilkes who's form is unrecognisable from last year.

I thought Bibb and Pitts did very well too, both of them made a similar, naive mistake early in the 2nd half but other than that they did great.

With Snitch and Ferguson in the second row our Academy was well represented in the pack.

Is it any coincidence Ricky's wife has left the backroom staff? He must now be playing for a full contract for 2010

Great game tonight, id give my right nut for a coach as educated as Kear at Wigan.

Best performance from Bibey in a Trinity shirt, he was excellent.,

Thought the forwards were excellent, we keep asking the likes of Wilkes to bust a gut for more than their share and they keep stepping up and keep saying "give me the ball". They were truly excellent. I don't think many players and teams could play with just 14 men for the majority of the game, play, play better than their opponents and knock them for 50.

Difference between the teams: attitude. And of course John Kear...that first 30 minutes was the brilliantly disciplined, playing to our strenghts and locking the game out.

Same old Warrington: Lowes same as a coach as he was a player; his attitude stinkis and he thinks shouting at people will win games.

Excellent.
