Josh Perry it was, and yeah Peacock got the first 2 punches in and he still got battered. Though Peacock is a legend, always fights with Aussies.

It stems back to when Willie Mason scrapped with Peacock after Mason floored Fielden. Ever since then, he's always had fights.

It's here > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5xzhhp6yQk
Lol it's funny when Senior jumps in aswell.
It's good that Peacock is carrying on tradition of
classic English v Aussie scraps.

Manly outplayed Leeds the score line flattered the rhinos.

Tony Smith has joined warrington as "head of coaching and performance"

Smith has signed a two and a half year contract and will head up Wolves' Coaching and Performance team. James Lowes will take on the role of First Team Coach, working alongside Tony Smith.

Wolves' Chief Executive, Andy Gatcliffe is delighted the former Super League winning coach has come on board, he said:

"The previous Great Britain coaching partnership of Tony Smith and James Lowes proved to be a winning combination. Bringing the partnership back together at the club, will, we believe, bring success on the pitch."

Smith will continue in his role as England Head Coach but has stood down as the RFL's Technical Director

Am delighted, well done to Simon Moran lets see what impact he can have on the team, in the long run, I expect Lowes to be pushed out, or to "go upstairs"

best start to a super league season for Hull FC, 4 wins out of 4 it was an entertaining game last night, just ashame about the handling errors that cursed Huddersfield it would of been a tighter game than it turned out to be, i know it was 20-24 to FC but i think Hull dominated the game throughout.

Puts us top of the table, until leeds play lol

Well we dominated Leeds completley yesterday, and I mean completely. The scored off 3 Chris Riley mistakes.

Firstly, got in Kings way (Matt King ) and spilled the ball between them.

Secondly, not in the correct position to stop the 40-20 leading to the second try.

Thirdly, dropped the ball leeds pick up and go over for the try, completly against the run of play.

Other than that, couldn't fault anything. The effort was there, (don't know about our goal line defence cos we never had any pressure on our line) and looked good going forward. I think a lack of confidence and that know how of getting over the line cost us but that will come back.

Theres light at the end of the tunnel, and the fans really got behind them yesterday and we were proud of the effort.

As I said to my mate, Rugby players get paid pennies compared to footballers, so shouldn't be expected to be as fit as them. I don't mind them going for pints after the game, I just want them to earn them!

Anyway, very happy atm, bring on the quins!

Hull FC kept there 100% start to the season in tact yesterday with a well earned win over Bradford Bulls, with a 36-24 victory away victory, next up for us it's Castleford Tigers at home this Friday, CMON 'ULL make it six wins out of six, and hope leeds draw or lose.

It's our best ever start to a Super League season aswell, carn't ask for much better than that. I see KR had a good game yesterday against the Crusaders aswell, all going Hulls way at the minute.

sorry Mike but i got to rub it in, what's going on? 5 games, 5 losses?... you got it all to do now, i know it's only early days yet but it's never good having to play catch up.

I don't think we will be catching anybody up Shaun. It is more obvious than ever the failings of Paul Cullen (lets hope he does the same to Widnes )

Smith has a massive job on his hands turning us around, and he needs time to do it, and alot of time at that. 5-6 years of failures are in store for Warrington in my opinion, and the opinion of most Warrington fans. It is really upsetting that players like Matt King swear at the fans for giving him abuse. He is up their with the highest paid players and is performing to the standards expected of an academy player.

Players like him and Monaghan need to be moved on, Briers should move to Celtic (thanks for the memories) and we need a massive overhaul, and then, in 10 years time, if we are given the license to stay in th Superleague, we might be challening for honours.

Gleeson has finally gone to wigan, we've got 125k and Ritchie Matthers in part-exchange - that will go a little way to repaying our 250k fee we payed to saints for the useless lump :|

What a performance, sure Bradford were the worst rugby team since Halifax when they finished with 0 about 5 years ago, but the way we moved the ball showed Bradfords defensive frailties for what they were. Also, other than their great lump solamona, we seemed to be solid defensively, this was good to see, a spirited effort, lets just hope we can carry this on. - Consistency!!!!!

Can't belive my mate who is the chafeur decided to have a hangover, couldn't get there

Cmon the wire!!!

Don't think you were the only one, there was about 100 Warrington fans at the most there.

Not to mention those ridiculous flags, what were they all about lol?

Bring back relegation, never mind Celtic (there spirited)... Bradford deserve to go. They are well and truly shocking.

Warrington played well, thought it was just over the top when Phil Clarke was saying 'This is like Saints at their best'!

The 3mins in the second half were probably the worse i've seen in SL. What were Bradford doing on that try??

Duno how many travelled, didn't seem alot, them free flags..... I got mine when I got the ticket -chucked it in the bin.

Thats a chelsea stunt!

Clarkey had a strange day, he started off comparing us to saints, then told us not to look to far into it, we weren't good, just Bradford were poor, then Tony Smith came on gave them all a bit of a rolicking for belittling our achievements, then they were all backtracking, saying we played brilliantly... It was funny to watch them squirm, his England coach status must have made them a bit nervous!!!




Yes, bring back relegation, makes things far more interesting, I mean they cliam they want to give young english talent a chance, but what about uch talent at lower league level who have no chance (except if the move club) to develep themselves.

Cracking win for the wire again on Sunday, 40-18 flattered far town, we completely dominated them from the off. Hicks has gone to the top of the try scorers after his second Hatrick, then we put Riley on the wing and he grabbed 2 himself. Bridge was far better than Gleeson as well so Wigan are welcome to him.

What pleased me most though was our defense, looking far more solid, Fartown hadn't lost away from home for 9 months so a decent scalp indeed.

Wont be going to Edinborough cos we are last on meaning I would have to stay over night, which just aint possible - not enough money and final A-levels coming up, should be a good game though, cracking win for HKR as well this week.
