Yeah i think we get rid of our kids to soon before they are really tested properly, execptions like patton though. I think he's a better Hooker than he is halfback, best games i saw him play for us were at hooker.

I'm not sure we are letting Harvey Livett go. Jason Clark is umbilically linked to Greg Inglis, one ( not the only ) reason to kep him.

Well you won't have heard of them, because of the unique Warrington phenomenon.

When other clubs let go of young players too soon, Long, Briers, Gale etc, they turn up at other clubs and show everyone their talent.

But all these superstars that Warrington let go, give up rugby league because they are disillusioned at how badly they were treated, so you never hear of them.

Have we ever let a young player go who became a superstar?....probably Sam Tomkins, but he was overlooked as he hit his teens.

He played 1 game in the "A" team. Signed for Warrington. Went back on his word & signed for Leeds.

"Newton joined the Leeds Rhinos after a protracted transfer from amateur team Wigan St Judes, after Warrington had claimed they had also signed the young Newton."

We also let Kruise Leeming go to Huddersfield.
