Quote: Alffi_7 "That was my initial thought, I guess Clark, Williams & Currie to be also in the running.'"


I think that we need a more vocal captain.

Both Clark and Williams are both excellent players but are not that articulate.

Quote: Alffi_7 "Possible Giants team taken from their board

Hill will obviously be fired up for this one, but I don't think there is a huge amount to fear in that front row, which is where we have struggled, however they are playing well and Watson always seems to be able to pull a gameplan together that has troubled us in the past so it will be a difficult one for us I think. VERY tough run coming up for us, need to get off on a good footing.'"


Interesting that you have dismissed our middles. they have mostly gone well this season and have managed to go toe to toe against sides like hull and catalan known for having a strong pack . We have a good strength in depth there. those stepping up have a place to keep. Even though we are missing a couple the others are still averaging over 7 metres a carry and all defensively sound. However its usually the game after the tough Easter period where fatigue shows in teams so who knows how this one will pan out.
Not sure if you have included Levi in that front row not to be feared. hope your coach feels the same.

Don’t think it will make a difference none of them are vocal enough, even when Morley was captain it was Briers doing all the talking, we just don’t seem to have that type of player right now.

I wouldn't say I was dismissive - certainly wasn't the intention any way. By front row I was focussing on props, Hill we know all about and I'm always very impressed by Yates. Greenwood hasn't impressed me since he left Saints and Lawrence whilst very hard working wont cause us many problems I wouldnt have thought. Wilson isn't someone who I know a great deal about if I'm honest but looks on the smaller side.

It's a common perception as a front row we lack size, and have struggled to contain Saints, Catalan, Hull FC and Leeds so far this year who out muscled us, my comment is related to that. Huddersfield will pose a different problem very well coached and Watson has a habit of getting his side to play well against us. Huddersfield as a group are playing very well, Warrington as a group seem all over the place, albeit the last couple of games have shown some improvement. We have Hudds (H), Wigan (H), Catalan (A), Saints (H), Leeds (H), Wakey (A) always a tricky one for us and Hull (H), need to sort things out otherwise we'll be in some trouble in the next few weeks.

After hill greenwood has probably been our most consistent prop. His defence is currently at about 98%. Wilson is averaging 9 metres per carry, although his defence isn’t as good.
You have a tough run of games to be sure- but as I said the game after the Easter period is usually a funny one.

Does anyone know if I can pay on the gate tomorrow? Usually buy in advance but didn’t think I was coming as my lad was supposed to have a game- that’s now been called off!

Usually can, if not ticket from the ticket office which isn't a million miles away from the away end

Powell suggested in an interview I watched earlier that Riley Dean will get a chance of a couple of games with Williams whilst ratch and Widdop are out. He said thewlis was probably our best performer last week (I agree) and he said its up to Riley to come in and show what he can do. He thinks he's a good talent and a smart player, I'm really hoping he goes well tomorrow I've really liked some of what I've seen so far from him.

It's a pretty good watch, on Warrington wolves Warrington guardian Facebook page.

I fear for us tomorrow. If we go behind early there is potential that the atmosphere will be toxic. While I don’t expect a knee jerk reaction (which it is on the edge of now, 9 + cup is on the edge of losing the year), section of the crowd will be restless at best.

I'm not sure, we have more than a punchers chance. Hopefully hill the penalty machine turns up. We were good last week, Huddersfield have been a lot better than us so far but it doesn't translate to a massive point gap, we win we will go a point behind!

All games are a big ask for us at the minute because we aren't fluent but there have been big signs of improvement in the last 2 games and more importantly a massive improvement to attitude and resilience, we will definitely need that tomorrow.

Wrong again. You said "Out injured until May."

You're not alone here Harrow and I don't want to make too much of a fuss but this forensic analysis of everything rubber duckie posts (yes I know its part and parcel of his nature and our board) but it can become tiresome.

I'm all for debate and keeping it factual but there are times when I've lost the plot reading through the sub text

Glad you picked up on it Rico. I don’t think I’ve ready any thing else from him but shadowing my posts, boarderline social media stalker going back through pages of old topics.
