And most FC fans would agree with you on that, healthily sceptical but happy to be proven wrong. There are a few blindly following the Radford Revolution, but not many.

Possibly, they have had some good players show up this year. Evans and Currie don't look far off starting a regular start in the 17. Harrison and Riley has been regulars for a number of years, Cooper is heading to the NRL.

A lot of clubs are signing/retaining players who have had big injury problems in their careers.

Wigan have, position wise, recruited like for like. Wire have replaced 3 props with 1.

you are right with what weve had since 2006 experience would be greeted with open arms, but we will haveto support what weve got, imo, LR will be nothing but professional with his squad when needed at the right times but hes played with most of them so there going to be close, he coached me but when he kicked off in his times of need we knew about it and we knew he wasnt a mate but he did it to makes us better to compete and win and that is what is the difference between a pushover coach and a top coach and given time he will be that, imho

It's not a fact. It's an opinion.

Theres also a gulf between getting the best from an amateur team and being able to get the best from a set of top flight professionals. A good kick up the backside often is the difference at lower levels in all sports whereas at the elite level dealing with often temperamental players and players of different cultures the margins are much finer and need to be dealt with very differently.

Riley
Harrison
Wood
Cooper

Even briers at a push

Who was you talking to Stevie wonder?

The incorrect point you was trying to make was about the "top five" having great youth coming through. Wood is a veteran at the end of his career, and Briers came through the Saints youth system. If you are going to talk such , at least justify it with facts.

I wasn't trying to make any point infact I never even made the first post you quoted



He said only 2 of the 17 at the grand final came through the Warrington system. I said it was 4 and you could even include briers at a push

Love to know how, he signed from Saints when he was 19, so never played for any Warrington Youth teams, how could he have come through the Warrington System? He even played a few games for Saints first team.

He's had no previous head coaching experience, had a very short 'apprentiship', and was player at the club on a few years ago. He's taking over a club that has been mediocre for the past 5 years with a small squad.

I admire your optimism but smart money says he will struggle.

That's one thing I don't think, FC having a small squad.

I meant in terms of depth of quality.

That's better.

He's classed as club trained for them so like I said at a push....

At a push Ben Galea was almost Maltese.
Tony Larvin almost had 3 private jets and £500m

He think he actually had a bike and a fiver.

Ben Galea has a Maltese passport dummkoph

I'm glad Mike Smith has his mojo back

At least we are going into the next chapter in our history with our eyes wide open.
In hindsight the indulgent hysteria that surrounded PG's appointment was a little OTT.
He was unproven and ultimately disappointing.

Radders gets every opportunity.
He'll go the same way as PG if he's cack.
