Correct. Currie is a much better all-round player. He has more pace, a better footballing brain and better handling. Evan allowing for Ben's injury, we don't need Andre - I'd rather have another out-and-out prop and/or winger/centre.

Just commenting on the annual cycle I outlined at the end of last season.

Pre season optimism
Comments on how deep the squad is
How the kids will kick on
How immense the pack will be
Best pre-season ever, ever.

which as the season progresses and we invariably miss out again turns to

Time to change the coach
Get rid of the dead wood.
Lack of winning culture
Alleged dearth of talent to sign
Decline in SL standard across the board.



Seriously all teams will be looking to improve and we need to improve more to compete. We could start by sorting out our backs.

You all know Brad Dwyer is going the other way as part of the deal?

I would really welcome the signing of Savelio but would not be happy losing Dwyer, especially to a rival like Saints.

A Wigan cast off... Now a Saints one... Sorry I'm struggling...

Good one Saddened - love it ...

The future doesn't exist. Only the now.

Anyhow the point was about the Warrington supporters cycle. Optimism. Realisation. Disappointment. Repeat.

This rumour may have legs.......with Saints recently releasing their back-up hooker Doug Charnock to Barrow.

I've followed Sav all thru the system at Saints and he's a very good player. I tipped him to be a top player when he was 15 and posted it on our board before most even heard of him.

He's nothing like Currie in terms of playing style but he can just be effective as him in his own style. You won't see Sav making 40m plus clean breaks or using his pace to chase back like Currie does but he will make big meters, attract players because of his power that will create space, he will bust tackles etc.

I don't want him to leave but he's been in the same bracket as Travis Burns at Saints and been a KC scape goat when things don't go well.

It's well documented that Sav wants to play backrow but imo he's not a second row as he struggles defensively on the edges as he gets caught flat footed in defence. Imo he's more the 13 style prop as he is a big lad (Lost few pounds last pre season tho).

He will be top signing and no doubt be in nrl in few years

I think AS is at best coming off the bench. He can be unplayable at times when fresh. Against a weakened opposition he could fill in as a classic type ball playing prop(not a turn around at the mere sight of a defender, stick my booty out into their belly, lean over and throw it out, type of ball player) as well as opening play wider as a 2nd rower.

Jack Hughes is more of a cast off than Crosby and he turned out ok for you didn't he?

Yes Jack is another player Shaun Wane decided wasn't good enough for you..He's an honest pro works hard.. Suppose that pleases most people..
