Forgot Warrington had won a lot of finals in recent times.

Unless I'm mistaken, this is a Warrington site.

| They have had the gall to have a pop at Wigans WCC effort where i thought they played well and showed up SL in a good light. According to saints fans though they were an embarrassment etc.....conveniently forgetting that their last two WCC appearances resulted in a 62-0 aggregate whomping!!! Theyve also been saying 'glad we got rid of Barba' as if it was their decision! A strange, strange breed. We'll win the next 5 GFs but they will have 1 more home grown player than us in their squad thereby giving them the moral high ground....playing in the totally wicked stadium sponsored by cash converters. Laughable. Im not happy with Widnes' plight....if Saints were to fold i'd laugh my little cobblers off!

| He’ll count on the non-federation trained quota (as per Widdop when he joins in 2020). I know it’s stupid, but it is what it is.
My wonder is that when Burrell joins later in the season, who will be leaving the club? There are already the maximum seven non-fed trained players at the club ( Austin, Goodwin, BMM, Clark, Tasi, Akauola and Mamo). One of these will need to leave (or at least be deregistered) before Burrell can play.
Or have the club not thought ahead clearly enough?

| Imagine being Luther Burrell today. All his teammates at Northampton will have been giving him stick today, saying why are you signing for league, you know they are all gormless northern chavs up there right? Why give up the chance to perform in front of an educated middle England audience.
Then he googles around to see if there's a Warrington forum, and what the Warrington fans think of him and he finds this forum sees a thread with multiple pages about him. Great, he thinks, there must be a long discussion about my qualities, what they expect me to bring to the team, then he reads this and realises what he has got himself in for.

I think Goodwin, Tasi and Akauola are out of contract and there's a fair chance all three will be leaving.

Why yes, that would make sense. But isn’t Burrell joining in July?

Or not register Burrell? If he only joins in July I don’t think they’ll throw him in at the business end of the season with no RL experience since his mid teens and more likely hold him back for 2020.

Burrell will be cap free at least til summer 2020.
He'll fall, I'm sure, under the talent pool exemption coming from a successful union career.

Possibly. That would make sense. He won’t have had a break either if he rolls straight into playing RL. But will he want to go from July 1st to February without playing?

| Hmmm, it could be he may count this year but will be zero cap in 2020 and 1/2 cap in 2021.
