IN reacting to another defeat for their side, Warrington Wolves supporters at least acknowledged a much-improved display from their side against St Helens.
Late tries from Jonny Lomax and Lewis Dodd allowed the defending champions to overhaul an eight-point lead to inflict a sixth defeat in seven matches upon The Wire.
On social media post-match, plenty of Wire fans voiced fierce criticism of referee Jack Smith's performance, with plenty of focus on the decision to allow James Bell's first-half try despite a seemingly clear forward pass in the build-up.
Here is some of what is being said post-match
Hard luck boys, such an improvement on last few weeks, let's keep it going now.

Great effort from us but Saints won by a try that shouldn’t have counted so they don’t deserve to win. In a way this one hurt even more than the poor performance from last week 😢
