All the best to Jordy at the Wire....
Another ex-Trin player to boo when he comes back to Belle Vue!

I always find it interesting to see how our former players perform with better players around them. I never had any doubts that TJ and Batchelor would be better for it however with regards Crowther I must admit he never impressed me . I accept he is basically a good club man but I always thought he lacked any creativity to play at number 13. I would never have believed he would have been the type of player Warrington needed but maybe he will thrive with lacked better players around him. It certainly will be interesting to see how he goes for the rest of the season.

Is Batchelor better at Hull KR?
TJ is clearly getting better rehab/fitness advice and opportunities with the ball. I hope he gets top try scorer.

Batch is still good. But I can't see that he's better than he was with us.

I feel circumstances have dictated this rather than it being a reflection on Jordan or his character.

If it wasn’t a direct shoot out between us and the team he was going to next year then I doubt he leaves.

As it is though it’s awkward especially coming into a crucial part of the season.

I’m not questioning his character but in a team dynamic it’s bound to generate a few whispers and put him under the microscope.

It makes perfect sense for both parties to shake hands and walk away amicably removing any external or internal pressures on the situation.

Who knows, we may see him back with us next year if Cas drop and we stay up.

IF we stay up and Cas go down, then JC has made his bed. Same with Miller, don’t want to see him back here.

Slightly different though.
Miller chose to go there when we wanted him to stay.
Crowther wasn't in our plans so had to look at offers.

Always found him a decent and pleasant lad to chat when I have had the chance, so he goes with my best wishes for the future. Never let us down in a Trinity shirt either.

I think your not giving Wakey any credit for the rehab they put into TJ before he left, he went fitter than he had been for a long time.
Agree about Batch

I liked Crowther, but understand under the circumstances why he had to go.
Didn't we once take a Warrington player in similar circumstances can't quite remember.

TJ is no better than he was here. He was top of try scorer charts a few times before injury in a couple of seasons. Also he has always been a big meter maker.

It’s just he’s more media attention and getting the service. He’s changed games for trinity on numerous occasions and we made him what he is today.

Agreed

We took grix from wire, he never played for us. Not sure why he came but he was injured and was never going to play.
Did he go back to wire the season after.

He's more likely to get a pass and seems to be having a good run of injury free games.
Even at Wakefield he got a lot of tries on his own so as you say its not like they've improved him, just he has more opportunity.

Wire needed the cap space to sign Chris Sandow. We took Grix as a favour hoping they'd help us out further down the line. I'm not sure they ever did.

Definitely about the service. TJ is still my favourite superleague player. He is a Trinity success story. I hope to see a few more like him come from the academy.
