| Luke Robinson. He's quick, strong, can kick and gives 100%.

Too much like Bridge for me.... Always likes to go himself rather than put players through gaps

| think ppl are getting a bit carried away with dobson, yes he did achieve the fete of improving wigan from total crap to average last year, but that was an emergancy situation where they actually signed an out n out controlling half rather than a strike player like moran.
Have wigan learned their lesson from this? no they went an signed a strike halfback again in leuluai (am i close?).

I'd agree with that.
Paul Cooke. I know he's an off field loose cannon. His natural game is to the left as we play, he provides excellent ball for Yeaman and Raynor. Briers naturally enjoys the right and his distribution this way is superb.
I'd like a halfback that compliments Briers too, Burrow roams around alot and isn't too structured in his play which would concern me given how we set up.
Cooke would be my 1st choice and another goalkicking option.
I wouldn't mind somebody like McLinden to be honest, although he's largely played fullback for the past 18 mths.

| Scott Hill would be perfect. The allround Stand off to play alongside Briers.

Paul Cooke would be an excellent signing. It's getting him over this side of the penines though. I see Sinfield as more of a leader on the field. Professional to the end. Great kicking game and can also kick goals. If I were to choose between the two, for me it would come down to attitiude and Sinfield would get it.

Yeah, either or really. I wouldn't be fussy. Both excellent at what they do, Cooke just seems to have issues, Sinfield you get the impression lives, breathes RL, consumate proffesional off field too.
We've got the bunce to make these things happen, it's how attractive a proposition we are really.

| Is Sinfield out of contract? if not, the chances of Leeds letting him go to us are roughly the same as us accepting an approach from Wakefield for Briers. Also he would be another of those players whose had success elsewhere and would see Warrington as a step down in his career.
If Salford get relegated then Luke Robinson would be a good signing, alternatively if we are looking in the NRL I wouldn't write off Kimmorley who has always done damage when he's played British teams. The danger is we may now be left with a second-rate replacement, such as when we were planning on Orford and ended up spending over the odds to bring Sullivan over.

| I can`t understand why you would put Paul Cooke forward as a signing unless you were on about reverting him to 13, Lee Briers and Paul Cooke are both players that like to control games and they are leaders and if you play them both together then one of them will have to take a back seat at being a leader and you will then only have half the player.
Lee Briers needs a foil to attract defenders away from him, we need that nippy type half back that will cause defences a lot of problems by taking on the line and Rob Burrow is one of the trickiest customers in the game at doing that and he wins a lot of penalties as well for high shots and defenders trying to hold him down.
Lee Briers and Paul Cooke are both organisers, distributors and they can kick teams into submission but we don`t need 2 of the same type player in the half backs as like i said one will have to take a back seat role at being a leader. We need an attacking threat like a Burrow or Lockyer type player that will take on the line which will leave Lee Briers to do the organising and kicking with the occasional taking on of the line.

| You don't see Lockyer as an organiser? I watched him orchestrate on of GB's biggest defeats on home soil. Don't be fooled, he is an organiser.
