Who will be our goal kicker..ratchy as goal kicker was a very valuable asset...can't think of anyone who fits the bill

Hayes(hopefully!!), thewlis, Williams. There are plenty of capable kickers without shoehorning a 35 year old into the side.

Wouldn’t surprise me, he’s been limited with opportunities here and looks like Hayes has pipped him in the pecking order.

I will be surprised if we recruit anyone else unless we are able to move on Dudson/Kasiano as things stand.

He wasn't given much of a chance

Powell obviously sees his potential. Which makes you think a bit.

What is a turnstile?

you’re right but it was Powell that seemingly didn’t rate him and treated him poorly, and it’s the same Powell who is coach of Wakefield.
Having said all that Riley didn’t seem to do anything when out on loan that warranted a place in the team.

Perhaps Powell see's Riley as a championship level player with potential of becoming better.

Or just as a Championship player?
No disrespect intended to him, I hope he does go on to great things.

Well I’m fairly happy with Dwyer, yes we could do better, but not really in this country. I think the club knew it too getting him secured early.

On a personal note, there isn’t a single player at Wire won me as much money.
I was drawing on him regularly as first, or last try scorer in the 2nd half.
I don’t think I’ve shown a profit since he left.

He backs himself, I always like that and that’s why I put my money on him. There hasn’t been a player who would take it on, other than Clark, (who didn’t so much in the last 3 seasons, regularly hindered with carrying injuries) and Widdop since Dwyer left, although Haze definitely has it about him too.
