Problem we've got is there are three/four halfbacks at every NRL club tops. Two starting are not going to come over here, see Maloney & Roberts whereas the others will be young kids.

Would anyone take Jarryd Hayne? Titans want to sell.

Rumour that Wire are in to rescue Josh Charnley from his union nightmare.

I heard Charnley and Luke Walsh this morning, no idea if there are any legs in it?

Oh dear god not Matty Smith please. I'd rather us make Adam Doyle our marquee signing.

And [iplease[/i don't anyone start quoting stats at me. His half back play would make a glass eye go to sleep. Banal, in italics and bold.

Not sure what to make of Walsh.

He was awesome in his first year for Saints, one of the best players in SL. Obviously stagnated a bit since he's left but n doubt he's better than what we've currently got.

Lee Briers?

Luke Walsh

Agreed - 3 years younger than Brown too. He was only on a 1 year deal at Cats. I'd still hope that was a plan B though.

Ironically out of the pair at Catalans, I'd have taken Myler.

I'd be happy with that.

Surprised Les Boyd isn't starting at 8 or do they have to be current?

Because its a forum and we all see things through different pairs of eyes. This is how i can 'just sit there and comment' . Correct me if i am wrong, but didnt Dec also get a fair run of games in 2016? again, i stand by my comments. If you are deemed good enough for the first team, then you are open to any criticisms or praise. I didn't know we were only allowed to pass judgement based on HIS FIRST FULL SEASON.

TBF i wasn't criticizing, i was giving my opinion that I think he is not good enough for where Warrington aspire to be, there is a difference. If i didn't think he tried, or couldn't be d, thats when i would criticize, and i dont think that has ever been the case with Dec.

Sorry to derail the thread folks. As you were...........

Heard that Salford are in a very precarious position financially, and Leigh may not get relegated.

However, this did come from someone with Leigh connections, so it could well be wishful thinking

I would not be inspired by signing Walsh, but I have never coached and when watching am baffled as to what the game plan is so I may not be the best judge.

There absolutely is doubt, he is utter garbage.

As I said, he's better than any halfback we've got.

I disagree, would have Brown, Patton or Ratchford ahead of him. I think I would have Rocket Rodwell or Ian Knott over him.

Ian Knott wasn’t that bad was he? Did a job as a utility when we were generally a very crap organisation. Same as Rodwell. He was an average Aussie importl but didn’t pretend to be anything else and wa at least a professional off the field. I think we are confusing Steve Anderson’s inability to be a coach with players not being up to much. 2002 can’t be used as a yardstick for future halfbacks!

I'm with you on this one. I don't want him anywhere near a Wire shirt.

Good goal kicker which we have lacked since Livett got injured.

Apparently, Wigan have made an offer for Ben Currie (taken from Wigan facebook page)
Also, talk of Josh Charnley to Warrington.

The Currie rumour has been around for ages and is laughable.

Williams and Tomkins take up the marquee spots and the immense cost of the transfer fee couldn’t be justifiable to Lenagan no matter how much he’d add to the Wigan team.

Unless we're daft enough to swap him for Ratboy...

Go wash your mouth out.

Yes, possibly unfair. I meant Ian Knott as half-back, which I remember being trialled in a game at Wilderspool when we were at a very low ebb. He kicked the ball out on the full three times in the first half and the experiment wasn't repeated.

Twas all over jealousee
