I personaly do not think he will be with us next year !!!
he said after the AUS. trip that he would like to return to NRL and that he has a opt out clause in his contract at the end of 2012
so I think that says it all !!
but thats just my view

I can't say I would be too upset if Joel has an opt out clause and intends to invoke it. He might give us a bit of height out wide, but, I don't think he is the best winger at the club and there seems no sign in a Matt Kingesque reversal of fortune and form anytime soon.

Not worth a boo though!

Do you actually watch any games? Have you checked his try scoring record since he came to Warrington?

Jesus wept.

I do watch games but I must admit I have been totally underwhelmed, especially of late. After making a decent start, he appears to have lost interest in my opinion rather than kicking on after getting used to SL, his new team mates andf life in Warrington.

I must admit I don't look at the stats to form that opinion, as they can be misleading, again in my opinion.

You of may beg to differ, as of course you are entitled to your opinion.

Tries scored aren't that misleading.

I think that they can be, but, hey ho we could go like this all day long, btw is that all he is there for? Does he match or exceed expectations based on reputation and paypacket which can't be the smallest at the club.

We are struggling for a bit of form all round at the moment and no one would be more pleased than me to see Joel amongst many others to turn that around. I just can't see it with him and judging by some other threads so can one or two others

DAniel Anderson likes him. I like him. Done

And presumably Tony Smith likes him and I will obviously defer to SL's best coach (not necessarily to you Mr Rocket) but I just want/expected a little more.

Happy to eat a bit of humble pie when he delivers.

karl pryce.

He's been on a par with the majority of the team, sort of 6.5/10

I doubt his form will drop so expect him to start throwing in the odd 8/10 performance
