The last lad of that description I can remember got a Tissot watch off Stevo! A young Kevin Brown. 

Great win that tonight. Maybe a bit frustrating from a Wire POV that it's taken that level of adversity to pull out that sort of effort and desire but it bodes well that the fight is still there.

Dear Mr Nigel Wood, would you please be awfully kind enough to rearrange the super league fixture list, for the remainder of the season, so that we can play St Helens every week.


Many thanks,

Thanks, I had started to wonder if there was something wrong with my telly when I heard all the moaning about the Ashton/Percival incident, as it seemed very obvious to me that Percival was shirt-tugging too and possibly the instigator. 

Jon Wilkin should be embarrassed by his behaviour over the weekend. I don?t mind passionate support for a team, even by a pundit. I often quite enjoy it (the NRL do it better) when the commentators show a bit of their true colours and get swept away with the emotion. All part of it when it?s positive. But with a dying brand already, the last thing you need is your own media personalities flogging grievances on air. Kevin Brown handled him well I thought and brought balance, as Carney left it almost unchecked. 

Absolutely - embarrassing is the right word. To focus on a couple of marginal refereeing calls rather than what was an heroic effort from Wire under extreme adversity, it just shows that he can't be relied upon for impartial analysis. Carney should have moderated the discussion better, too.

It was pure, self indulgent, petulance. Lack of emotional control. 

I know I should be a better man but I am mildly enjoying the St Helens predicament at the moment.
