I asked that question about Browns contract a few weeks ago and someone pointed out that it’s on the warrignton elves website. Contracted til 2019 so must have been an unannounced extension or an option that wasn’t made clear when he signed. Happy to have him in the squad but not at the expense of a proper organising half back with a great kicking game.

Yep, just found it.
He's probably on top money I would of thought.

There is some info circulating this morning that Kevin Brown is no longer a Wire!

If that's the case I'd genuinely wish him well in the future, he was the best we could get after the sandow affair, has put himself on the line for us, been solid enough especially in defence. The reality is though we really do need an improvement in kicking game and the salary cap doesnt allow us to keep well paid players for bench or reserve spots.

Yes. I dont think anybody wishes him ill at all, just not what we need now. If he is to go I wish him all the best. Maybe he is off to Toronto with Wilkin.

Have you any info as to where he's going...or is he calling it a day....to be honest can't see it really he.ll be a wire next season....

Circulating where? Seen nothing on social media.

I heard Widnes as player/coach

Sorry I have nothing more than previous, I know its a bit sketchy but that's all I was given. The guy wouldn't go any further I guess fear of being found out!

Soon as I hear any more .........

Having been in your corner for both final (great achievement) i have the same conclusion, inpatient, poor execution, clueless in good ball and no kicking game.

I've not seen any elves? I must not have drank enough alcohol after the GF.

Hearing a possibility that Henderson might be going with him... hope not......

Wouldnt be surprised to see him leave before the season starts. Hes had a decent season for us to be fair to him....carried us in a lot of game when our Marquee was found wanting. But for me, has just not done it in the big games (finals especially), against the good sides. He was MIA on Saturday. I heard over the weekend that we had a big offer turned down for Luke Gale, and have made numerous approaches. Not sure how true that is...if so, it does tell us the Price knows that he needs an out and out number 7 for next season.....

....watch this space i suppose

Whether Brown goes this season or next the club recognise that we will need a replacement. Brown has just turned 34 and I think that many people were expecting that the 2018 season would have been his last (nor would many have predicted that he would play in 33 matches). Quality halfbacks are a scarce commodity and we've struggled for the last 5 seasons during which time we've tried Myler, Gidley, Sandow, Brown and Roberts in various combinations as our starting pair with Patton, O'Brien and Livett in support. Being on the lookout for a quality half should be an on-going activity.

Interesting as you're normally very reliable. Encouraging to hear.

Would Cas accept £1m for Trueman do you think? Middleton wanted to put £1m into the club - that would be ideal use of that money and Trueman would be well worth that money I think.

I'd take Gale in a heartbeat but agree if we're shopping at Cas we need to be looking at Trueman, in my opinion.

Gale ....horrible little oik ,on a par with Tomkins .

So exactly what we need then?

I was told months ago that part of the deal in Brown coming to Wire was there would be a position on the coaching staff for him once he hung up his boots.

I heard that Bob Moore was retiring. So there is a position for him there.

To add....it was Gale himself who said no, not Cas

Lol

Well that's positive news, the same with me as i don't wish him bad but he's not the guy to take us forward. Not sure why we'd make a play for Gale when Drinkwater is available? But yeah at least if this is true Price is hunting us a playmaker

Bah that’s a shame. Personally I think he would be the perfect addition. Great goal kicker, great in game kicker, great passer and backs up well. Could be our 7 for the next 5 years.
