He will deserve it if he contributes to a winning performance.
Clearly he has never done this in the past and thus has never deserved to be in a final, i suspect that the same scenario will occur tomorrow.:30555.jpg |

That's a pretty good team and does include around 8 internationals. It would be interesting to compare it with the Widnes,St Helens and Wigan equivalents. |

I suppose Fulton and Helme are as good a halfback theoretical pair as any.
And the outside backs are pretty decent too.
The forwards look to be our downside.

I always liked Barry Briggs, especially in the spell (late 1960s) before he went to Australia. As well as being a good footballer, he had work rate and aggression in his game. Unfortunately when he returned and played under Murphy, much of that aggression had gone and being no longer good enough for the Wire, he was packed off to Wigan.

I thought the thread, which you started, stipulated Warrington born players.
Jon Wilkin was born in East Yorkshire. Joel Tomkins was born in Warrington. |
