So 3 games in and I know its early days but this keeps bugging me. Are Ryan and Matt living up to the expectations that we had regarding our attack.

At the moment, I am not sure what they are offering. Surely guys of their size should be pounding defences.

I guess in time, and afew games more, all will be different but at the moment it concerns me

Any views?

Its early days for Ryan Atkins, he will need a fair while to settle into a new team and a new style of play along with getting used to having a new wing partner, a wing/centre understanding can take time to gel.

Matt King`s positionining at times is a slight worry, we goes walk about and comes in a fair way off his wing, i didn`t think he positioned himself well for the Wigan try in the corner.

Depends what you were expecting from Ryan, he doesn't seem to be playing any different than he did while at Wakefield for me, so I don't really see what you were expecting?

Atkins was one of your best players last night he got through alot of work! King on the otherhand was not so good, i guess when hes not playing against someone half his size like ainscough he's alot quieter...

Atkins is a hard working centre, takes alot of pressure of the forwards with the drives he does.

I'd like to him be a bit smarter though and try to pick his gaps to use his pace. Something I'm sure will come.

Certainly can't fault his effort.

They aren't getting the service. Our right hand side gets briers attention and are seeing better ball. As good as Myler is at getting himself in position to carry on a break he isn't a great creator and our left aren't getting the oppurtunities yet.

I think Smith should use some sense and ask them both to get their hair cut. Comedy hair cuts are fine on top class players who are playing really well, but when you are a player looking to make an impact on SL it's not really appropriate to have your hair cut like BA. Get it cut and focus on your rugby rather than your appearance and 'big local celeb' status.

King carried the ball to the line as much as anyone for Warrington last night. However Atkins should be looking for more involvement.

Its something that will get better as the season goes on, Atkins made some good drives last night taking 3 players with him most times.

These two aren't clicking yet for me, both look good going forward and King looks solid under the high ball although he can stray a little in defence but overall the pair are playing as individuals.

Defences are shutting our left hand side down quickly. Myler had to com back to the middle a few times last night. Once they start to read each other a bit better it will be more productive. At times there are 3 new player out there (Myler, Solomona and Atkins) It will take a few more games for them to gel.

I`d watch the game again, both Mathers and King let high kicks bounce on the floor where the ball could have ended up anywhere. I wouldn`t call that solid under the high ball.

iv been impressed with atkins so far he ain't really been in any try scoring opportunites as yet but from alot of restarts after a kick to touch he runs it in himself and usuallly drives the defence back

Our natural game staves Atkins and King of the ball. We always play to the right in attack with the odd kick to King when nothing is on down the right.
