Already chatting about this in the recruitment and retention thread. I'm very happy with this if true. But some people really aren't, so he's a bit of a marmite player it seems.

Because he's 30 years old now,? He rightly left to try to nail down a starting spot to further his career, because we have had the luxury of having an excellent Darryl Clark as first choice for 9 years. Dwyer is a good hooker, walker will be first choice, but dwyer will provide a spark off the bench, he's also got a nice habit of snatching important trys from dummy half against stubborn defences.

I'm happy with this signing as I suspect he will be good value and allow us to balance the spending better across the squad. We have made some good signings under Powell (Magoulias aside). Well done to Walker for really developing into a top #9.

I don’t think I’d be too harsh about Magoulias. He was injured and homesick as part of the worst wire team in super league history. I thought he was impressive in the World Cup, and if he’d joined us this year instead of last, he’d probably look pretty good as a ball-handling forward.

Yes. I was referring really to the effectiveness of the [isigning[/i rather than the player.

He scores a few, makes breaks, drops goals (sorry to put this in) & is generally worth watching. Have seen him have some very good spells. I reckon we know what we will get (which can't be said of all signings).

Is this happening, I hope so. Always comes off the bench and makes things happen. He will know he won't be starting hooker and must be happy with the situation. As for clark, what a fantastic player he has been, we've definitely seen the best of him. Still a good player but exactly the right time to be letting him go.

He has been a superb player for us and can only wish him well. With a 3 year contract at Saints he is likely to win a GF and it will be well deserved.

He might already have a GF win before he plays for saints

As much as I like Clark I’m not on board with this ‘he deserves a title with Saints’ cobblers. Maybe he does but I certainly don’t want to see it and wish him absolutely no luck whatsoever whilst playing for them. I hope he wins nothing during his time there.

I don't wish it at our expense obviously.

"He deserves to get to a final with Saints" would be the correct phraseology

Yes, this!

What does it say about us if Clark thinks he has zero chance of winning a GF ring at Wire and his best opportunity lies with Saints?
Sorry, but I didn’t buy such bollox.

If Clarkey is leaving Wire, it’s about money and contract.

For clarity, as it seems it is needed.

1. I don't wish success on other teams at the expense of Warrington.
2. It is arguable that Saints are more likely to win a GF in the next 3 years than us.
3. If Clark wins a GF with us I will be delighted.
4. If Clark wins a GF with Saints I will be pleased for him personally despite my dislike of Saints.
