My view as an outsider is that the likes of Livett Philbin and Toby King and to a lesser extent Currie wouldn’t currently get in any other SL team as first choice players. Also Warrington are crying out for a good old Nr 13 loose forward! Can you tell me who yours is? Ryan Atkins was and still is a class player. What about him? Maybe Toby King? Anybody that tells me however that King is a better centre than Atkins needs to buy me a pint and a have chat with me!

Respectfully, but completely, disagree with almost all of your comments.

Livett will soon be playing and looking very good for KR, Philbin is an excellent bench prop and would do that role well for almost all sides, King is developing into a brilliant centre and I'll give you Currie but there are many mitigating circumstances there.

We don't have a dedicated LF, we just use the position as a 3rd prop. I'd like to see us try one though.

I was a huge fan of Atkins back in the day and a big critic of King before last season. But Atkins isn't anywhere near his former glory and King has been very impressive for the last 12 months or so.

Lol of course I am RD. I did say I’d say it as how I see it. I’ve really taken to Warrington and I have my opinions. I don’t expect everyone to agree as that’s life! I nearly got beaten up at Saints for suggesting that Luke Thompson was overatrated but hey ho! I’ll say it as I see it with no malice intended at all!
For the record who is Warringtons this seasons starting 13

Jack Napier. I stand by my comments but in no way disrespect yours. I’ll say it as I see it as Widnes fan with my hopes very much on a successful season for Warrington.

Fair enough. I do think you'll develop a much different opinion on King over the next few years. We'll see!

I joined this board as a friendly type but with the option to offer my opinion as an outsider! I will keep doing so with my RL hat on with no malice and hope you’ll take it in the spirit it’s intended

we don't have a starting 13 as such as we use an extra prop there rather than a traditional loose forward.

As the great Murph always said...1,7,9 and 13....Vital! Currently I see the 13 is a big issue for Warrington

Re: Harvey livett : Tue Jun 18, 2019 4:09 pm  

As a thought regarding a ball playing loose forward.. Put brown there..then you can 4 forwards on the bench and if needs be move brown in the halves...
