| He had a great game v. St George and was arguably our biggest yardage gain forward.

| Riley unfortunately wasn't good enough for us. He is a big lad but did lack the aggression and drive. I think England has been a very good signing overall and he does not lack aggression, just quality at certain times in terms of ball handling.
Be good to see him and Ashton Sims back tonight against Walmsley.

| To be fair Riley was a prop just out of the academy coming into a not too settled pack shall we say out of sorts, maybe the time away getting that little bit older he may improve, coming back to a team that will have a better look about it with hopefully another prop added it will give him more time to develop as all young props need time, to bring him back the club must see something in him of course it's down to him.

| in 2014, as an young interchange prop, he did pretty well and looked like a potential wrecking machine, as the bloke who's name i can't spell above me says, last years pack was totally different, and probably too much was expected of him, where he probably needed a year away like ben evans had, had he continued a drip feed approach he'd be in a much better place now, not unlike how George King has fared this season(who btw, i wasn't struck by when he first came into the team, now he looks a very very good supporting young prop)

| It is an odd one this, he wasn't loaned to London like Dwyer he was released and signed a contract with them.
However if he has improved under the London coaching team like Dwyer did he might be worth a look as he is only 22.

| Hopefully it isn't a case of there's no other props about so let's bring Riley back for a last chance. I agree with gazwire on England, in the st.george game he was a beast and I thought "wow he's finally hit his potential" But he didn't find that form again. He does have potential to be an Alex walmsley type player so fingers crossed. If Riley does come back then best of luck to him

| I will be both surprised and disappointed, if he was given a new contract at Warrington. He certainly has the physique, but is very slow, & doesn`t get any momentum to play his weight.
A prop I would like to see play for Wire again is Tom Walker who is currently playing for Workington.
He was released, I assume to play in his native Cumbria, to gain experience, for one season
In a similar manner to the agreement we had with Swinton regarding ex-Academy players, Warrington have first option on his next contract.
Tom certainly played with a lot of aggression, & has the potential to be a decent Super League prop.
Has anyone got any news on Tom Walker`s next contract?

| England, didn't do anything wrong last night, his try was fine seen worse forward passes given, he gave 2 big hits on warmsley, TS management of the props is poor,, mose and warmsley had done 2 rotations short sharp bursts, before smith changed ours at about 30 mins,, hill will be burnt out buy business end of season,,

| England was a target defensively and was caught a few times. However so was Sims and Philbin who had a nightmare all night.

| i called the prop rotation as bad last night, i did wonder whether they were trying to weather the masoe storm with our starting props and then bring on the subs, but i was crying out to fight fire with fire and get england on to whomp masoe back.
