As Emo Philips said "You don't appreciate a lot of stuff in school until you get older. Little things like being spanked every day by a middle-aged woman: Stuff you pay good money for in later life.:12130.jpg

Quote: the flying biscuit "Where are these Classy wingers from Australia ?
In the very classy state of Origin, Full back Darius Boyd and Centre Israel Folau were the Queensland "wingers" While Fullback Jarryd Hayne played on the wing for NSW in game 1.

I suppose a like for like replacement for Hicks would be Luke Burt at the Eels.... a good Steady pro no Represenative honours to speak of a but can cover wing and fullback and can goal kick...

is that what we class as "classy" ?

I'd rather have Brett Morris now he is class....'"


hayne started off on the wing and went fullback due to injury but played well there. true about Morris

Doherty has been realised by Sale Sharks, who were nearly relegated last year. i'd much prefer us to use Williams and Penny instead. Surely the loss of Hicks would free up wages?

Think loose forward should be a priority, followed by a winger. Riley isn't up to it imho, so Hicks will leave a massive hole next season. Could move Atkins there, with King and Bridge in the centres?

Wow, 46 tries in 78 SL games (inc 21 in 20 this season) = not good enough for you. You set high standards!

Indeed I am fussy. I want Warrington to win Super League in the next couple of seasons.

Riley's try count speaks for itself, but the amount of tries a winger scores, doesn't necessarily relate to the quality of the player. Riley has scored a load of tries because Warrington have had plenty of ball, generated by a dominant pack, and the likes of Briers, Bridge, Solomona, King have been able to work space for for Riley to score.

Like most wingers, most of his tries are simple walk ins, which most Superleague wingers would score. the same goes for Hall, Gardener. What sets a decent winger apart from a quality winger isn't simply the amount of tries they score.

Riley is a willing player, and I do like him, but there are fundemental problems. He'd too small. When you are that size, you have to be exceptional ball in hand. The step and change of pace of a Robinson, or Burrow.

Riley is quick, but not rapid, but has no real ability to beat a man, especially on the outside. He lacks confidence in his pace, and rarely shows it to full effect. Added to that, his lack of height makes him vulnerable to a good kicking game, plus his tacking can be weak. Both were exposed against Leeds.

To be fair, ball in hand he played as well as I have seen against Leeds, and seemed to regularly make yardage, when returning kicks etc, so maybe there is hope he can improve. For me though, he won't be good enough for a top 4 team, and quality opposition should be able to exploit his weaknesses.

I would agree with that Clutch. I think it's a fair assessment. In an ideal world you would want two 25 year old Chris Hicks' on either wing but they dont grow on trees and thats the problem.. there isnt an abundance of talent off quota in this country especially wingers and centres so until that changes, you will see the likes of Riley on the wings.

Riley is a good try scoring winger and I do like him but he is prone to the odd mistake. I'd still say him and Bridge on one wing with Atkins and King on the other.
