That's why the key bit is youth TO first team!
What's the point if having the best U20's in the land if your not going to feed them into first team?

Using your own definition; feed. Williams, Evans O'Brien (who, but for injury would have probably played more than planned) have been brought in a little at a time.

'signing imports for positions you really don't need them in'......what a bizzare thing to say.

What your youth - first team production? Yes I agree.

Why come on here with your silly trolling comments when you've already confirmed the signings of 2 journeymen (Cross & that donkey from bradford that kicks goal.... his name escapes me) that will be taking the place of some amazing talent you have coming through your Academy ?

In Tony Smith We trust. If he thinks we need another winger, whether they be an import or from another SL club, then so be it.

Your as bad as some of the Worriers that come on here stressing about our transfer policy. Starting worrying about the small club you support & next years impending Wooden Spoon. Should keep you busy for a while.

That would be Patrick Ah Van who was responsible for a large amount of our 60-odd points a fortnight ago. Personally, I'm delighted that Widnes have signed him

If a team has high quality, experienced quota players, there's a good opportunity for the younger players to learn from them. This seems to be the case at Wire. I hope Ah Van will be helping the Widnes youngsters with their defence.

Good one!

P.s. I'm not wumming in any sense, if you want to be ignorant to the fact our sport has ZERO international media pull and that's mainly in part to the fact we don't produce enough top class players full stop.

People say if they don't make the grade they go but 2 things, how quick do you judge? And 2 is that not a question for your staff if only Harrison is a guranteed first teamer despite being a full time SL outfit from day one? (Ok granted their may have been an overhaul for that reason but time will tell and at the moment needs building on).

Shame McCarthy hasn't got a new contract with youguys. Thought he looked useful during his Wakefield loan spell.

We need a loose if morro is not resigned and would not be disappointed if he came back.

I'm hearing from a source who's reliability is untested, that we are in the process of signing Rangi Chase.... i cant see it myself though.

On their board the talk is he's signed a further two year extension with no 'get out' clause, due to be announced next week.

I can't see us getting him to be honest.
