If there are mitigating circumstances and Crosby needed an extended break I've got no problem with that ... But why the secrecy ? Just find it a bit odd our new signing has taken 3 weeks off from team duties.. Considering the position we are in and the fact I would think he'd want to establish himself in our first team..

Just because he plays for us does not entitle us to know the ins and outs of his personal life, there has been no secrecy we were told he was off for paternity. if there were any issues there would be no need to make them public knowledge but 3 weeks of is not a long time really.

I hope he n his family are ok and he can come back and make an impact

There are very mitigating circumstances, so I would refrain from commenting as RD has implied.

I'm not fortunate enough to have access to any inside info, i was just asking a question as many do about many things on a forum.

I give credit to Warrington for allowing Crosby time off dont think every club would have given the issues the side has at the moment

Andre has been dropped by Smith for tonight.

Heard the same. Crosby comes in on the bench. King replaces Atkins. Johnson to wing for Lineham, Ratch to FB.

well thats great, drops another young head, who granted,has been 'patchy' but i'd say westwood has been a lot worse and probably should miss out.

Agree. That Andre has looked half decent. Which is a great marker to set compared to the rest of the standards set so far this year.

I've seen corner flag move and react quicker to stuff than B Westwood Circa 2017

Perhaps he has dropped Andre as the game is at Saints?

Isn't he our top try scorer ?
