i think letting Clark go and giving him the 9 shirt has been a great decision... He has really been top notch this season.. proper warrington lad.... playing his heart out.

Love the bit of agro at Connor as well from the touchline today.

Having a great season.

Superb from the club to make him number 9. Wouldn’t trade him for any other hooker in the league.

He's been great for 2-3 years now, and added more to his game each season, plus he's a natural leader which could be seen straight away.
He's definately a future captain for us

Shows club made the right call on Clark, who seems to be interchange at the Entertainers* these days.

*Yes I know, it was tongue in cheek.

Said last season that he will make a great captain one day. I was concerned a couple games ago that he was losing his cool a bit much when before it was always a controlled aggression and fight. Thankfully he is back to being an incredibly balanced player and personality.

Walker is becoming a very good no 9. Good distribution, can break a tackle and offload, make a line break and has a good kicking game. If he can keep this up consistently he'll be an outstanding player for us and his country. Delighted for him (and us).

Walker just gets what it means to play for his boyhood club. He’ll go on to become a legend and spoke about for years to come.

He has to be the leagues best nine, by some distance. He’s all round game is improving each week the display against Huddersfield was great and he only played for 46 minutes I think

Re: Clark,

As I’ve said many times…

Better to loose them a season too early than an a season too late.

I don't watch much Super League other than our games, but people whose opinions I value say Brad O'Neill is very good.

I would concur that it is between O'Neill & Walker. We seemed to be blessed with several decent British hookers in the last few years (Roby/McClorum/Clark/Houghton/McShane) but these are either retired or getting on a bit these days. Especially for England duties. I see there are a lot of SL teams where the hooker is completely anonymous and i couldn't even name them off the top of my head eg Hudds, Leeds.

Cruise Lemming is pretty much a Daryl Clark of 5/6 years ago.
He and Brad O’Neil for me currently on form.

Walker was pretty poor v Salford and average throughout the rest of April to me.

O`Neil and Walker would be an ideal combination for selection in our International Team 17 man squad.

Very different types of hooker and would alter the game as they interchanged.

O`Neil with his big physique, could also cover playing 13 during the game too which would be a bonus.

huddersfield currently have adam milner as 9 who they signed from cas mid last year, who powell had converted to a 13 before he left.

He's crap

and off the bench they now have ash golding, a former fb playing impact hooker

Think Clark moving on and Walker becoming the established 9 came at the right time. If I was asked now out of the 2 who would I want at 9 and knowing nothing I would choose Walker in a heartbeat. Right now he is better than Clark imo.
