Anyone who thinks burrell is above Ashton in the pecking order is clueless... Oh hang on our coach does

A Saints fan lecturing us on arrogance, oh the irony.

There's many things I am, but arrogant isn't one of them.

| Why was Mamo playing?
Why did we buy a promising young centre then not play him when a centre position becomes vacant?
Why do we keep playing Burrell in the 1st team when its obvious to everyone on here that he needs game time in the reserves?
Why have we dropped our most promising, exciting young player to debut in the first team since Penny?
What is Price going to do differently against Toronto against an anxious and expectant home crowd?
These questions and more should be put to messrs Price and Henderson by the press this week. As supporters of the Wire it would be nice to know that there was/is a plan behind these things.....

| That's the problem with Ashton in being he plays in position/positions he'll keep getting dropped from. We would have beat Wigan if Hill hadn't gone off, beat saints, then Widdop is fit and completely change a team playing VERY well together because he's a marquee player and we've spent alot on him. For me a player shouldn't just come in unless players have played really bad. Ratchford if not needed in the halves will always be picked ahead of him at fullback. Lineham is too good an all round winger to drop. We have this massive overhyped love affair with Charnley who can seemingly do no wrong. So Ashton won't displace them unless injury. So unless widdop, Ratchford or our wingers get injured looking at this decision he won't het much game time this year

It must be frustrating but Price's dropping of Ashton is probably a good thing, if he even was dropped and not just carrying a knock. Wakefield is a notoriously difficult place to go and a place where even world class backs can be put under severe pressure. The pitch is shocking, the crowd are literally arms length from you. With a player as young as Ashton it can take only one or two mistakes to wipe out months of confidence building performances. It's probably a good thing for Ashton's long term development. Looking at the highlights of your game today the pitch looked very heavy, a great leveller of pacey players. Taking him out after two promising performances seems like good management to me. Wouldn't surprise me if you play him next week against Toronto at home, a much lower risk game for him to play in. If Price continues to do that, he can have a lot of highs without many lows which will aid his development.
Playing Ashton centre today would have been an option that would have kept the fans happy. But in Tupou and Lyne, Wakefield are very strong in the centres and he could potentially have been a weak link defensively.

| Quote: CW8 "Us getting beat at Wakefield today doesn't mean that we didn't outclass you last week. Yes you had a few out but so did we. FWIW today its hugely dissapointing, price doesn't have many chances left for me, I felt he should have gone before the end of last season. The last 2 games made me feel I was wrong but it's not going to take many of these for me to completely lose faith again.'"
There’s no doubt that you thoroughly deserved the win against St Helens but outclass is an exaggeration imo and Saints did have more players missing and more important ones at that. You played well but I thought Saints were appalling and couldn’t have made it much easier. Constant errors and penalties meant you were gifted field position without having to work that hard for it and I thought you looked devoid of ideas near the line.

I don't see how Charnley can get stick. He never receives the ball in space, usually he is against both opposition centre and winger. If he was knocking on, dropping balls or missing tackles I could understand, but I don't think he is. It's not his fault we don't have a system that utilises his exceptional finishing.

Our strategy against Saints was not to allow them to play their usual game. As for being devoid of ideas near the line,that has been a problem for a good few seasons now.

Agreed. How many wingers have you seen at Warrington who were genuinely better than Charnley.
1. Chris Hicks
2. Joel Monaghan - 50/50 on this one. If you switched round the eras they played in, would Charnley have outscored JM?
Lineham when on form is up there but he hasn't been as consistent.

Eh? The BV pitch is shocking?? BV has a lot of things wrong with it, but the pitch is not one of them.

I'm a fan of charnley and can't see why he's getting stick on here. But I wouldn't put him in the same league as Joel. That man was different class.
