Victor Radley would walk into the England team. He’s an A+++ player.

Please don’t say you think Farrell is better because that is just laughable

Well look who’s finally shown up. Finally got over the semi final

Farrell plays SR, Radley plays LF.

No way he gets in above the great Morgan Knowles.

Back on topic the half back options for the WC don’t look great at present.

St Helens look to be going down the road of flogging Lomax then having surgery once their season finishes, I’d be surprised if he is available.

Williams’ form is very poor, as are most of the rest of Warrington at present. There’s plenty time for that to change though.

Gale is in and out of the Hull side, I’m not sure how good an option he is anyway.

Widdop (see Williams)

Aside from that it is a host of untried, younger players, or playing someone out of position. Some have potential, and a lot of it, some I don’t think are international standard, Trueman, Pryce, Abdull, Smith, O’Connor, Tomkins or Sneyd.

My husband said much the same thing if he’s Englands starting halfback in the form he’s currently in then the national side has problems

Has Radley ever power walked a 30 metre try in against Saints though?

The halves for England will be very interesting. There’s no way you could pick Williams or Widdop at the minute, Woolf will pull Lomax out and Dodd is injured, so that leaves very little to choose from. It’s looking likely Tomkins will be pushed in there but you still need a partner. Wane may need to go against his instincts and pick Hastings or they may need to go for a left field youngster like Mikey Lewis, Harry Smith or Olly Russell. The only other option I can think of is Jake Trueman.

Well thtey *could* play Connor in the halves, even if Wane is unenthusiastic. He is a talented play-maker, but please, keep him away from full-back; he is nowhere near quick enough.

Welsby to FB, Sam in the halves and then look for him a partner.

Imagine him at fullback with Addo Carr in full flight



I wouldn’t be against him and Tomkins at 6 and 7 though. That is plenty skilful enough and would be pretty creative.

Or playing Vs NZ and giving Waerea-Hargreaves some jip. The guys a 1st class clown and a 3rd rate player.

Thank God you are back, I thought somebody might find you floating in the Leeds/Liverpool Canal after last Saturday's result



I thought you might compare Radley to Knowles as they play in the same position?

Radley is a very good player, but he does spend a fair bit of time on the naughty step.

hes good an A+++ player he aint....now Murray is the same age and a far better player hes A+++

The lads regressed since coming to Warrington. Must be good being that crap and being paid that much money.

I feel sorry for Williams , getting booed by the Warrington fans . He isn’t a bad player , he’s playing in a very poor team .

I admire George in a way. He is concrete proof that players need Wigan more than Wigan need them. It’s an honour and a privilege to play for this club and something you should never give up just to earn a few extra quid. We should never ever go away from that because literally nobody is worth it.

He’s must be embarrassed he didn’t come home

He was appalling tonight.

I agree with your last sentence but there's no doubt that he's coasting and the Warrington fans know that.

P.S. I had a PTSD flashback to the Adrian Lam era with that Powell interview - 'we trained well', 'in a good place', 'heading in the right direction'.

The players don’t like Powell, even the ones he brought from Cas don’t like him but couldn’t turn down the money they were offered.

Tough, he made his bed he must lie in it

He is no Andy Greg but to be fair who is?

This is the Warrington problem. They have lots of money but don't seem to be able to spend it wisely.

George is a classic example of a player with a price-tag inflated way beyond his actual level. What he did for Wire tonight was exactly what he used to do for us: the odd flash of something good, but mostly nothing at all, lots of promising moves ending without result through untargetted Hail Mary kicks.

Darryl Powell isn't far off that either. One good season doesn't make a quality coach. Whatever he did that year, he's never been able to replicate it again. I'm not sure he even knows what it was.
