I was pleased young Owen was rested.I don't think young players should be allowed to burn themselves out and the nearest example I can give would be that fella called Rooney who wanted to play every game and 2 managers,Moyes and Ferguson,restricted him.
Although this game could have been played at a cemetery or on the moon as the crowd was dead and there was no atmosphere,there is still unnecessary and unhelpful pressure put onto the home players.
It would be best for the young players to be introduced away from home.
Our players needed the home support for a spark.They were physically and mentally drained.At Huddersfield McPherson had his thigh heavily strapped,Wild still has the lbn covering elbow,going onto forearm and bicep.
Ashurst came back onto the field wearing a head bandage.
Before the game the programme revealed we are the second highest in the league for missed goals.
So psychologically KR have the advantage.They then score when offside from the kick reminding us all of our disallowed try against Wigan and after our own players fault for the first couple of penalties the referee decisions get ever more bizarre and after an extensive amount of defensive work we then don't defend.
Awful weather.Awful referee.Awful display.Awful result.Awful day.
I did notice that the club with the wonderful owner,wonderful board,wonderful Labour MP who accepted a Lordship,wonderful coach,wonderful players,wonderful car park,wonderful car park attendants,wonderful access to the stadium,wonderful egress from the stadium,wonderful stewards,with the wonderful Halliwell Jones who sells wonderful German cars,that's the wonderful Germans who didn't just try to halt the wonderful game of rugby league all those decades ago but who killed lots of British people but people are able to move on,that wonderful Warrington,just like SCR,conceded over 40 points in France,so perhaps in sport there is winners and losers and with well over half a season to go,and a cup run available,all is well.
We may even start getting decent officials at our games !
