Where are you now? I suppose Chris Hicks will be the next one for you simpletons to use as a scape goat with him not scoring yesterday (as we know Hicks always scores).

Well done Ryan, great finish for both tries and the 2 comedy wigs look to be forging a great partnership

i was a bit ho hum about him getting mom last night, obviously favouring king though ry was good, having watched it back this morning he was freaking awesome, great strength, some very very good footwork that he wasn't known for at wakey.

Well deserved.

Atkins will benefit on the wing if he has king inside him

Atkins has worked hard all year in my opinion. And he'll slowly start to gain the rewards. Like last night for example.

nice to see him celebrating in front of the bradford fans, he really does seem to like being a part of this place.

Doesnt he just! There seems to be a real collective happiness within the camp. I love seeing players celebrate tries like that too. It oozes confidence.

now you compare that with monas boat race after he went over.

He was my MoM, but could have picked King, Louis (!!), Morley, Westwood....

I thought Louis was excellent last night, and he's one of my downers normally.

Solomona will rarely win MOM, as he's not on enough, but his influence on matters is excellent. He's the skills of a halfback, hits hard & talks. I thought he was excellent last night.

What you will get with Atkins is loyalty. Throughout his time at Wakefield he spoke highly of the club and how much he enjoyed it there. It seems that he will do the same at your place.

Everyone at Wakefield spoke of him in the terms of unfulfilled promise, not lack of ability. If it comes out at your place, good luck to him and good luck to Wire. You're a good club with good fans and always a great place to go.

I never doubted him, he's been good all season just hasn't got the tries which Some people think is the only thing that makes a back good

Agree with all the above.Played well in everygame imo. Only stand out mistake was the daft pass at hudds the other week

Some posters on here writing the lad off after two games.

No allowance for him being with a new club and new environment.

Can't pass the ball etc.

Ridiculous.

My vote would have gone to King, but not disappointed that Atkins got it.

I would have struggled to give it to a forward, as I thought they were all excellent, and it really was a great pack effort rather than individuals standing out. King and Atkins provided the spark though, which was needed in a tough game like this.

Wrong to slate him so soon into his first season with a new club, however on the flip side it you can't say the opposite. Nothing can be judged after just 5 or 6 games. Remember Hull won their first five before the wheels fell off. Things could fall apart for Wigan, Wire or anyone else up there.

I will publicly eat my own trousers if those two teams are not challenging for honours at the end of the season.

one thing about Atkins - he is a great athlete. short, but very powerful, great leg drive. in other words, exactly the type of player the club should be signing, in contrast to one or three individuals who have worn the jersey in recent seasons.

Saturday showed the team is fit, and has more petrol in the tank than recent seasons. however - a word of caution. Man for man, on paper, the Wire squad is way stronger than Bradford, Bradford have ;downsized' quite dramatically and no longer have many real star players. Warrington really should be beating teams like that without too much difficulty.

Mark, word of warning, you've made outlandish comments before (ie "Cullen will win siverware for us etc"icon_wink.gif. I'd retract the comment and keep your troons if I were you

Oh be quiet.
One good game doesn't mean we should be bowing at his feet the same way that a couple of poor games doesn't mean he's garbage.
He'd make a better winger anyway..

Agree with you Dico, he's definitely a winger and could be a very good one if he fulfils his potential.

People talk about his England potential, if he is to play for England, it won't be at 3 or 4, mark my words.
