Trouble is we don’t learn. Weller Haruki has this week come out and said he had an offer from Warrington a few weeks ago but decided to retire. Good grief. What must these young forwards in the academy be thinking?

He hasn't said Warrington made hm an offer. He made some vague comment about having chats with a few clubs and Warrington showing interest. What they phoned hls agent back.

Complete none story.

I struggle to believe we offered him a contract, let alone that he refused it!

Why are we talking to a 36 year old journeyman who isn't deemed good enough for Hull KR?' We may as well have a chat with Adrian Morley and see if he wants to come out of retirement.

What was the last decision/signing the club made that you were happy with? I'm genuinely curious.

It doesn't say we had a chat with him. The bit about Warrington allegedly showing interest in him isn't even a quote. It is the Guardian's reporter interpretation of what Hauraki apparently said / implied. Seems to me that the Guardian reporter has a requirement to post a story and that's the best he could come up with, jazz it up with a headline and who knows there may be some people out there who think it's a big news story.

Well it's run a pointless 15 minutes on here.

Maybe you’re happy with not winning a title in 65 years despite having the best squad during periods of the last 10 years and spending the most money. Maybe you’re happy that our recruitment over the last 5 years has been a mess and signing players that can’t even be d turning up for training whilst not giving local lads from the academy a fair crack. Maybe you’re happy with this acceptance of mediocrity at the club where it’s ok to finish 4th or 3rd and go down like a lead balloon in the second round of the play offs. These are facts. I wish they weren’t and we’d be sitting here having won at least one Grand Final but we haven’t.

I think we all know the "facts" but that wasn't the question which I think was genuine

It was a genuine question, not an invitation for yet another rant from you as to how most Wire fans are satisfied with mediocrity and how you are the one true believer. So try again, what was the last decision/signing that you were pleased with?

Having watched Warrington home and away for more than two thirds of those 65 years I think I have the perspective to put the last ten years into context. They represent the most sustained period of high performance and success in the history of the club.

I do wonder how long you have been watching Warrington? You don't see to be able to take a balance view on anything, last season you claimed the team were looking unbeatable and a joy to watch yet now a dozen or less games later the club is a car crash.

It would be good to have some balance and perspective - I'm sure you have a great passion for the club but please do realise that constant criticism is grating on others just as un-realistic hyperbole can be excruciating and awkward. Whilst Latu was a dreadful signing and subsequently an expensive error on a scale of cock-up signings it's barely a blip compared to say the signing of George Burgess.
