Good. Let’s get them training in the cold with the SAS. Build some hardness.

Ross Kemp is a fanny. They need to spend some time in the company of Bear Grylls. They need to know what its like to be exhausted and down on your knees. They need to install team spirit and have an attitude of we will not be defeated. They need to understand what its like to be on your knees and come back and be victorious. Only when they understand this can you achieve great things.

Where did we do pre-season in 2011 which every one holds up as the glory year although we didn’t even make a final?

Do you not think that was our best side?

Re: Shirt Sponsor : Tue Nov 07, 2017 12:02 pm  

i dont think ive seen anyone hold up 2011 as a glory year..... i think its held up as it was the best team we had. It was certainly a candidate for the best rugby ive ever seen Warrington play.

There was certainly no glory in seeing that team come out of the season without a trophy... if anything it's been held up as 'if Smith couldn't win the GF win this team, what chance does he have with this current one'... which wasn't entirely fair, as all teams were stronger in 2011... Still.

Where was the pre-season that year?

2011 is the equivalent of the Morley tackle on Harrison Hansen. Impressive but we still lost. And the Langer ball steal on Martin.

Small time mentality.
