He has links over in Hull and would seem to fit the bill for the type of player you say you need. I can't see Hull throwing the name into the ring for him but as fans would you be happy if they did?'"
I can see Orford going to Wire tbh.

Thought Briers was on his way to Barrow next season?

I don't know where you've got that idea from. He's an excellent player!

If you think so then fine by me, I don't agree.

| Quote: Staffs FC "He's one of Hull's better players and he's British. Whilst I wouldn't claim for an instant that the first point makes him brilliant he has the skills necessary to play at SL level, and can perform those skills at a decent level on a consistent basis. He should be given the LF role with a ball playing mandate but I doubt that will happen.'"
Entirely agree!

| I would like to hope one would be Orford, and the other a fullback, a LF or a 6. Depending on where Horne, Whiting and Washbrook end up.

can't see why we would be any less of an attraction, we have a lot of cap to spend, and have achieved more success than Warrington have this decade, play to bigger crowds in a better ground, the only advantage Wire have is that Tony Smith is a respected coach.

That could be the entire reason, look at what he did at leeds and he is slowly turning them around, another season there and they may actually turn into the top 4 side they expect to be with the money they have spent

And we are all entitled to our opinion, thats what the forum is for. But I have to say you must be the first person I have come across that doesn't rate him.

With Briers gone and the addition of Orford, Wire will be almost totally built around overseas players

I think that will change too, IF smith stays, he likes to bring through young players to develop them and give them chance, by good coaching he improves them!!

They will be willing to pay that extra bit to secure him like they did with Monaghan when we were in for him.

| It really doesn't matter who we sign because Agar and Sharp will coach any talent out of them anyway.

this time I think the board realise they stand to lose a lot of money if they don't sort our problems out, so i'd hope they'd be more ambitious about getting a halfback this time
and with Monaghan I'm glad we didn't get him in the end, i think he's been very disappointing for Warrington

Yeah but so has king et al there, could have been deeper problems there that Smith seems to be sorting, may get better performances from now!
