Bradford gave us Hockney, Leeds gave us Moyles.:731.jpg



Quote: The Angry Pirate "Matt Orford is a very good player, however he has the same problem that Allan Langer had when he was with us, in that he is surrounded by quite a few average players, which just puts more pressure and expectation on his shoulders.

Even great players can't do it on their own, all the time.'"

Good post, not even a hint of racism.

Can't see why so many people are getting so worked up about this game so early saying X or Y is definitely going to win. IF both teams were absolutely full strength and played to there potential then I think Wire would probably win. Thing is games 2 weeks away. At this stage there's injury doubts for both teams that could prove significant factors, without even allowing for any injuries/bans picked up in next two games. Plus both teams have demonstrated this year they are equally capable of not performing on any given day.

assuming myler out, orford and langley back plus home advantage then I'd say balance is very slightly in bradfords favour as it stands at the moment. BUT it could all change in next two weeks. Theres not much point in the chest-beating until we see team sheets for game and form of both teams going into the game.

Saying Myler's in Orfords class is absolutely freakin absurd. Briers, tbh i've always rated, maybe biased and he does have some weak aspects but what he's good at, he's magical at. When Briers is on form I think he's the most creative 6/7 in SL imho. Many dont get to watch him week in week out, but I suppose thats the same with everyones team.
To me, Myler isnt that big a loss. He'll grab you a few tries but as a creative cog Bridge/Grix/Monaghan/Clarke (yet to play this year) will do the same job in Wires team. Im still going for us (Wire) personally.

And seriously, couldnt believe it but KK is actually pretty. Strange I know considering how much a skank she looks int papers

It's not about form.

I personally think Wire will be operating right on full cap, not breaching it. But you can't blame people for being suspicious with the number of internationals in your squad??

You're obviously not a troll on this place so i'll answer that one for you.
A few years ago when we got a richer backer, the same as any smaller club does, we paid overinflated wages for average players with bigger reputations. The same way KR are paying big bucks to Paul Cooke we were paying large wages to players like Rauhihi, Gleeson, Parker, Johnson, Readon et al who have all left within the last 12-18 months. Then bringing Myler, Atkins and Solomona in and promoting from the academy isn't really going to push you miles above the cap now is it.
What is concerning for us is players like Harrison and Bridge who will require much larger contracts next time round

I understand all that, but from an outside pov if you look at a squad with Atkins, King, Hicks, Briers, Myler, Monaghan, Morley, Carvell, Westwood & Higham in then it seems alot of talent in one squad.

I don't think Warrington are top of the list when it comes to likely salary cap breakers anyway.

The phrase politically correct is in itself politcally incorrect so should be rephrased politically stupid! If you like old type radio comedy/ dramas etc listen to //pumpkinfm.com/ Statistically speaking you have a better chance of getting dead the older you get! Thank god only when you find a religion that passes the truth test!:13554.jpg
