I'm talking about Warrington players. Who began their Warrington career well and then over time went backwards?

Martin Gleeson
Brent Grose
Logan Swann
Kelly Shelford
Jon Roper

any other shouts...?

Tony Tatupu, his Warrington career started so well with all the hype, its just it went backwards as soon as he stepped onto the pitch. So you could say it started well then declined.

Their are loads in this catagory, most players that leave go backwards in their careers, you don't sell your best players unless you have too like we had to do with Scully and Harris. We had loads of players in the past like Varkulis and similar other players with potential that we let go and they ended up at clubs like Chorley and Leigh etc

Yes I was meaning more players who were particularly good for a while and faded but were around for a while when past their best.

I suppose you could say Rob Smyth declined after scoring 4 tries in his first 40 minutes in a Wire jersey.

Richard Henare..............Nuff Said:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_42237.jpg



Noone, sibbit, wainwright, stevens, braeck, duffy

All had potential, even flashes of brilliance but failed to deliver and were shipped on.

Never forgave duffy passing the ball whilst seemingly over the line and effectivly stopped us from getting a major scalp. Struggling to remember more. Any1 help??

Didn't Neil Kenyon get a hat trick on his debut? then went down hill for him.

Brian Carbett, he was a flyer early in his career then his form dropped, think he had a bad injury and was never the same when he returned.

As Emo Philips said "You don't appreciate a lot of stuff in school until you get older. Little things like being spanked every day by a middle-aged woman: Stuff you pay good money for in later life.:12130.jpg



Brian Carbert, Ronnie Duane, Kev Penny, Mark Roberts, Phil Sumner, Rob Myler, Jon Roper, Andy Holbrook. Some of these declined due to injuries.

Currently, I'm not Fat!:14942.jpg



Paul Noone is one for me.
He was hailed as our new Paul Sculthorpe and our future Captain.
Unfortunately for us and Paul none of this materialised.

Good call, I always compared Noone and Woody, not position wise but players coming through at around the same time. Noone appeared to have the skill and flare to make it whilst Woody was just a hard running no nonsence forward. At that time I would have said Noone would have made it while hard running forwards were easier to come by. Well how Woody has matured and his game has improved especially under TS. Well done Woody. Sadly wasn't to be for Nooney.

Quote: tonys_triumphs "I recon

I remember reading possibly in a progamme or a copy of the Warrington Guardian that Alfie Langer rated him as the best forward at the club mentioning in particular his running off the ball and his ability to find gaps.

It always stuck in my mind that piece especially as knott had already begun to recieve stick from the terraces before Langer came.

anyway has anyone mentioned Graham Appo......

And so you aim towards the sky, And you'll rise high today, Fly away, Far away, Far from pain....:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_53838.jpg



Recently....Vinnie Anderson maybe??.....Started well enough but got to the point last season where some on here were finding a club for him - Not many were discussing the chances of a new deal for him .... icon_lol.gif

Pre- Super League....Rocky Turner??....The Great White Hope at the end of the 80's, he was apparently John Woods and Andy Gregory rolled into one, and when he teamed up with Mackey in Autumn '89 and we were top of the league and waltzed to a Lancashire Cup triumph, things looked good for him.....However, Mackey left for Hull and Rocky's career never recovered....Even when Johnson tried him again with Mackey on the Aussie's return in '92, things never got going again for him, and God only knows what became of him.

Didn't William Webb Ellis pick up the ball and run, someone should really tell Rugby Union. www.squadbuilder.co.uk:1883.jpg
