Fair enough.

By not having it you’re penalising clubs in a sport where injuries can occur at any point through any fault of their own. It’s an immensely physical sport and I think we need a degree of flexibility. If you lost 4 players for the season in pre-season, a club could be down £400k on their cap space versus others and only be spending £1.6m on players who can actually contribute versus a club like Warrington spending £2.5m. It’s an uneven playing field and... Читать дальше...

So any more rumours I’m bored now

I don’t think Leeds were but only because we’d already used our two marquee spots and also signed Lolohea for the halves. If we had a marquee spot still free I’m sure we’d have made a play for him.

I know there'll be people wetting their knickers after I say this but, I wouldn't give £10 a pint more than a passing comment.

Excellent management of this signing by the club, kept it very quiet until the deal was more-or-less done. Really shows the determination of Messrs Moran and Middleton to invest heavily in the future. Now we need more of Warrington's 200,000 population to respond and start going to matches at the HJ.

Bill T hat-trick, must have missed that somehow.

Hi guys/gals,

What sort of a team do you think you'll be bringing over on Sunday? Noticed you're away at Skolars on the Friday but assume you'll be playing mostly kids there so the majority of your first team squad will be heading to the AJ Bell?

Cheers

Things I can remember than I can can share:

Jerry had ankle ops and not really trained with squad. Played on Sunday without an injection for first time in four years.
Jerry has had wisdom teeth out and Thewlis told us a very funny (if youre not Jerry) about it

Matt Shaw talked about his pre-season day and how much he hurt. He spoke about how intense it was and how he found out it was only at 70% intensity when they ramped it up to 90%. He said that... Читать дальше...

I remember Derek Turner had a successful furniture delivery/removal business in the early 1960s when I was a lad, he delivered a easy chair to my mums house on Lupset, I had to sign for it, I always regretted not asking for his autograph.

How does everyone see our start to season going? Obviously we got away to a flyer last season winning 4 from 4.

I believe more consistency is required if we are going to achieve top 5, too often last year we won a few games, lost a few, won a few etc.

With the squad we have now id like to think we are going into every game thinking we can win (home & away) rather than just hoping we keep the scoreboard below 40. To be honest this has been the same over the last couple of seasons. Читать дальше...

I think it's stupid in that regard," Lenagan told reporters at the Warriors' pre-season media day.
"I think it's a poor decision and I think it's an ill-thought-out decision, to be perfectly honest.

Yorkshire Cup Final – Batley (A) Sunday 20th Jan 2pm

Predictions? I think this will be tough. It’s going to be cold. Playing at Batley is never easy. At least Kear knows the opposition well. A lot depends on the side he picks. It’s an interesting one since it’s still a pre-season game yet the fact that it’s a final means it means a little bit more. Do we approach it in the way we would a league game? Or do we use it as a chance to give the fringe players a final chance to stake a claim? Читать дальше...

That’s a very pointed comment but an honest one by Shaun,if Lam does really well why upset things again,I’d say Edwards will come but I don’t think it’s as cut and dried as fans are led to believe and there is scope for him to step aside and allow Lam to continue

Anything that involves any club paying and bond to enter the Cup is unacceptable for me

who decided who plays who in the six extra games, by my reckoning wigan play wire,saints cas,catalan,wakey and hull kr 3 times each some tough extras there the good thing being we play 4 of the six at home.

Does it? Leeds finished 5th twice in a row and still get stick about it. Wakefield finish 5th twice, the latter of which because the other teams basically gave up, and its some sort of great achievement. You were in the mix to finish bottom 4 with 2 games to go last year against a Leeds team that most agree was the worst performing Leeds squad in our SL history against what your fans are calling your best built squad in SL history.

Finish 5th this year when 5th means something... Читать дальше...

You would be better off waxing lyrical about your back line instead, they are actually up there I reckon although not quite as good as ours, imo we have the best backline in the league.

Worrying final paragraph to this Shaun Edwards interview in the South Wales Argus today where he refers to his accession to the Wigan hot seat as "an option" and "you just never know what's around the corner" and hints he wouldn't take the job if Adrian Lam does well this season..
