I'm with you on this Paul, i don't get all the fuss, we loan to Cas or London that's fine yet not Hudds?

If they play him it probably better for him playing around a good set up than the bordering semi pro set ups of Cas and London.

He could even be a good eye in the camp and gives us heads up on combinations and set plays if we played them in the cup or playoffs.

Fine, if that's the explanation. It just looked like an unusual arrangement.

Recalling Rhys Williams will have not affected the salary cap in any way as he was part of the squad at the beginning of the season so we are not having to loan players out because of that.

As PY said, this is a great opportunity for Brad to get some SL experience at a top club. It is a WIN-WIN situation for us and for Brad.

This partnership would as important to us as the Cunningham / Roby Partnership was too Saints, Kieron went off and on came James. At the same time for us Jon Clarke went off and Mark Gleeson / Gary Hulse came on.

He was scrum half all the way through the juniors, and a nowty little bugger as well. In fact, just what you want in the halves. Not sure at which point he started playing at 9!

That's clearly the new perception of all Wolves fans to ridicule other less well off super league clubs than yourselves now that they have been rescued from the doldrums that they were always in is it not?
It's surprising what money can do to a club and also a change of culture into the bargaining too,after all its not so long ago that Warrington were nothing more than a Sunday pub side was it?

For all your snide comments yed your club still hasn't won a grand final despite it's big financial outlay has it?
A club still in the Rhinos,Saints & the Bulls back pocket i'm afraid

Oh Dear. You appear to have upset someone, Yed.

Is it arrogance if im right though?

Cas are falling to pieces and i'd be surprised if they survived the next round of franchising.

Besides what's you points, when we were crap, i knew it, the guy on the terrace knew it we all did. We were ridiculed, we sold off our better players etc.
And?
My/our attitude has changed but so as our circumstances be it fortunate or not.
No one else gave a crap about our fortunes and we haven't won a GF you're right, but i wouldn't change my last 4 years for yours.

Just a heads up on the giants situation. Lunt is our only current player exclusively playing in the hooking role. Although faiumu has been on the bench he has been interchanging at 13 and robbo is playing 7 this year but has been covering 9 to give Lunt a rest during the games. This means robbo and lunt have been playing big hard minutes. Given the fatigue our players have suffered in recent years Anderson is ensuring that these key players are getting a rest and that is why Dwyer was brought in. Our U19 squad consists of mostly 16 and 17 year olds and there isnt anyone ready yet to step up with one young lad who has been playing at 9 just gone to play in aus. I had heard we were looking at Milner but given what has happened at cas that has probably hit problems now.
He played reasonably well last week, quick hands and decent passing, he made a couple of errors but given he only trained once before the game with the squad he can be forgiven for not being clued up with the plays etc.

It seems to be the Warrington way to get halves playing at hooker all the way through to the senior side. Sullivan and Monas spring to mind notwithstanding what happens in the academy.

Who is that jools ?

Although to be fair Manly Warringah soon sussed out the Monas wasn't a scrum half and shunted him to hooker in Aus. We signed him and thought we knew better but his unerring ability to pass to the opposition soon convinced us otherwise ..... and we, and he, never looked back. Sullivan, on the other hand, was just mediocre in any jersey.

The point is valid though and in the modern game, hooker (and FB to some extent), scrum-half and loose forward all seem to be interchangeable; whether that's a good thing is open to debate.

I'm sure that you wouldn't Yed and that says so much more about your clubs very near progression to the next level and that's the one that you havn't quite reached yet despite spending how much on transfer fees for Myler and Ratchford than it does for our demise does it not?
I'm pretty sure that you would swap your last 4 years with the Rhinos though would you not,or are you not gauging your successes' against the big boys?
