| Quote: Barbed Wire "The thing I like of how were shaping up is that we can afford the luxury back towers like Currie should we have enough field position and momentum from the middle players. If we can get Currie back to playing as a wider creative player having Ashton, Dufty and Wrench outside him in space then it could work out well. It’s just important that we undertake the hard work in pre season and fix up our defence and get fit enough to compete over 80 minutes.'"
Absolutely, I’m convinced the Currie with be the biggest beneficiary of the big men.
Currie is fast, deceiving fast, he only needs half a break, and the presence of quality forwards attracting the attention of the defenders will be all he needs.
Currie has always had the skill, you don’t forget how to ride a bike, just sometimes you ride it slower.
Currie has been hampered through injury and no preseasons, then when just as he’s getting something like, he’s has to play during a season where for most of it, we had only one or two recognised out and out props.

Even without express pace he can still pass and kick well. He just needs room. This might not go down well, but Clark stands to be the one to gain the most from a pack of big men, which could also hamper the team the most. When we get quick play the balls, he has a habit of running first and thinking second, but with Williams, Currie, Dufty, Wrench (possibly) and Ashton all on one side the slightest chance of an overlap and the ball should be shipped wide to them, not a scoot up the middle to pinch a few yards.

| Quote: Dita's Slot Meter "We were done by a battle-hardened Leeds side in both 2011 and 12, which I can live with. However, I still maintain we were a Joel Monaghan and Stefan Ratchford injuries away from victory in 2013, which were down to lady luck and some dubiously cynical tactics on behalf of the opposition.
The 2013 final always feels like the one that was stolen rather than lost for me.'"
Absolutely 100% agree. Monaghan was unfortunate but Ratchford was the victim of some standard Shaun Wane tactics. The club hasn’t felt the same since for me and hasn’t been that close to winning the big one either, even though we made the 2016 and 2018 finals I never on either occasion fancied us winning. Slow decline since 2013 for me…

| Next year there are 2 plans A and B
Plan A is for DP to have a good preseason with the new players and turn things around with at least a top 4 finish
Plan B if things are going bad over say 6 games with no visible signs of improvement then LB
returns to the club from the NRL as head coach.

Really thought he would do well there, but reading between the lines, they have the same problem that we had.

| Quote: Captain Hook "Agreed. And presumably anyone else who agrees can’t then put our lack of success in SL down to culture. On at least 3 occasions it was down to something else completely.'"
Bottle and inability to cope with adversity - the bit between the ears. We should have won 1 out of the first 3 GFs at least, we were good enough.

| Fair point but also I think winning 3 out of the first 3 CCs was perhaps overachievement as two of them were against a Leeds side who was better than us but bottled it when they were in the cauldron of Wembley.

| Bin Powell, Sheridan & the ex Castleford don*eys now.
Start afresh with a new coach & the proper Warrington players we have + those on their way.
Failed experiment - let’s face it, accept it & move on before next year starts.
After last season Powell cannot be trusted with our team.

I respect you saying bin them off , but you failed to name your replacement recommendations.
And who are the ‘proper Warrington players’?
