| Three signings that should go well at Warrington.
Myler is potentially a very good half back. It'll be easy playing alongside Briers, who he will learn a fair bit from.
Atkins is a good player, although he hasn't really hit the heights that he should have done. He'll also have to adapt to playing on the right hand side instead of the left that he usually plays on. But, he could be devastating especially with half backs who love getting the ball wide.
Solomona is class on his day, despite his injuries. Easily the best offloader in Super League and if he's a direct replacement for Rauhihi, I think they've got a good replacement.

| BTW if Graham does end up at Warrington, like I said on their board, i'll do a poo on the centre spot at the next CC final, during the match.

| Atkins - Not as good as Shenton or Lawrence - he can't pass or tackle so teams could have some fun if they pair him with Riley
Myler - Not as good as Tomkins or Eastmond
Solomona - past it
3 great signings for em can't see them breaking the top 4 if that's there major signings - especially if Monaghan does go because he's a better player all round then Myler who isn't anywhere near as good as the hype

Well if he actually offers anything going forward then he will be better than Rauhihi already.

| If there is money there (legally) for them to spend then far be it from us to stop them signing the best players in the world
Jealousy is a very big monster on this board in recent weeks.

I'm more likely to sign for warrington
I think the money spent on myler is madness, he is unproven. Ratchford is better IMO!

| When Saints splashed the cash, we bought players who were guaranteed to be world class. Newlove, Sculthorpe and Long.
Wires treble signings are nothing but a Gamble
Ryan Atkins? Purlease. Id rather have Lawrence from Hudds.
Richie Myler? Yeah there is a reason he was scrum half against France. Im sure it had nothing to do with Tony Smith buttering him up. Anyone who thinks hes in the same class as Eastmond or Tomkins must be clueless, or a wire fan. I suppose the two are mutually exclusive anyway.
Solomona? lol

Hindsights a great thing.
Newlove was.
Scully was a great prospect but took time to bed in.
Long had been let go by wigan and was playing at widnes.
Warrington have finally got a coach who can take them places.
Myler is a class signing, Id have him at saints.
Atkins is a good young english prospect.
Solomona is hot and cold but when hot is great with ball in hand and against tighter defences could be invaluable. doubt hes on a massive contract.
If they add a westerman/sinfield they will have a squad to challenge the top two next year.

Sean Long was earmarked for greatness when he was like 14. Those that coached him knew with certainty he would go on to great things. Even the aussies raved about him when they saw him play in the schoolboy internationals. Likewise for Sculthorpe. There was no hindsight about it. Long nearly threw it all away with his escapades on that that train to london, which resulted in him going to Widnes. Fortunatley, we gave him the lifeline to get his climb towards greatness back on track.
The long and sculthorpe signings are totally different than Atkins and Myler.

I think that is the point that people are forgetting. We aren't pinning our hopes on these three making us the best team in the league. We have already won a trophy without them. We are simply adding to an already very capable squad.
