Head coach : Sat Mar 03, 2018 2:51 pm  

I wonder if hendo is enjoying his new job!? Wire seem to be following on from where they were last season. No doubt he is on more money, and has much better facilities but he is still no2 at a club that are lacking in something at the moment
Wardy however seems to have instilled a team work and attitude that has been missing the last few years. The touchline chat is much more calm and considered than the last couple of seasons, hendo used, shall we say, colourful language when trying to get his point across.

I really do hope we can keep the run going, missing a week gives the team chance to fix some bruises etc, but how wardy manages the next month will show his mettle, particularly the easter programme

Part of me relishes the fact Warrington are struggling at this time.
Now I like Andrew and I cannot blame him for taking the Wire job. However Steve Price and he have quite a job on their hands. They are bye and large stuck with Tony Smiths squad from last season. Which I think is somewhat clicky. There is a group of older players who yield a lot of power and until they are sorted out, things will not change.
The worrying part is that with the big clear out that will happen at Warrington, players will need to be bought in to replace them. Some of our players will be on that list of replacements. Players Hendo knows very well . Alex Walker is one name mentioned.
So will we become a feeder club for Warrington. I hope not!

Hendo was a one trick pony at the Broncos, fitness and keep it tight. Maybe thats what wire are now experiencing.

Unintelligent coach. I never rated him.

Alex Walker is not a Super League standard player, he proved that in qualifiers last season where he was largely anonymous, Unfortunately Walker can only play one position and his defence isn’t good enough. kear is still first choice when fit.

Not so sure Elliot is first choice fullback, feels like Alex played there quite a lot last year with Elliot playing and club site has Alex at fullback and Elliot as utility back.

Think Alex has cemented the full-back place. Elliot Kear played in the centre towards the end of the season so I suspect that is where he will play, he then provides cover at full back and potentially half back

It’s not our opinion that counts, it’s David Hughes and Wardy...Fairly sure they gave Kear the No 1 Jersey, and Walker the No 14?
