Bit of a random one but thought i'd try to start a topic to make a change from the current trend of we're e.....which we are at the moment.
If you could bring back 4 warrington props from past seasons in their prime, 2 starting and 2 bench props, to take us forward and add punch, who would they be. Excluding Morley and Carvell as they are the obvious choices.

Starting props for me would be

Paul Rauhihi
Chris Leikvoll

Bench would be

Danny Lima
Danny Nutley

2 big buggers to start and 2 pocket rockets off the bench.
Just a bit of fun this so hopefully people won't take it too seriously

Les Boyd
Mike Nichlos

Paul wood
Chris hill.

Nick Fozzard
Danny Nutley

Paul Wood
Mark Hilton

Are you Richard Agar? Blimey. You forgot Warren Stevens.

You might as well throw in Dodds too

Wot no Teitzel?

allan rathbone thats all you need

joe price roy lester

That's going back a bit, not many will remember Rambo. But yes, he would certainly make a difference to our pack - when he wasn't suspended of course. Don't think he played many games for Wire even though he was a Warrington lad.

The first time I saw him was when he played at stand-off for Warrington schoolboys. He was outstanding, he had all the skills plus the physique. Having said that he was initially a bit small for his chosen professional position in the forwards.

I think he also played for Lancashire schoolboys against the Australians schoolboys who included a certain Mr Boyd.

Boyd roach(cannot believe already not posted) frontvrow would beat Morley carvell front toe hands down tho Boyd would probably be better at half back in today's team he had more ball skills than our half backs combined

Hooking would be Duane Mann don't need to be spelled but if cover needed I'd put monas in there

Jackson and Davidson on the bench

Sorry but none of the current crop and only Morley recently would get a look in on previous forwards we have had the pleasure of watching

Bill Payne ,Brian Brady ,Nicholas ,Boyd ,Moz ,Wood & Hill....i like them.

Second row and loose if my memory serves me.
Yes a team of cloned Alan Rathbone's would definitely cause a disturbance in the force.

Chris Hill. Aidrian Morley
Danny Lima . Nick Fozzard.

To start Two class players to make the hard yards.. Just when the opposition thinks they've weathered the storm two wrecking balls come on..

Totally agree i wish we had the 86 premiership winning pack in fact the whole 86 team

Careful we will be told on here that they could not live with the likes of modern players like Sims, King, Wilde, Hughes et al. Usually by some know it all who only saw the '86 team on Youtube.

taking that team against todays with their comparative training structures yes todays teams would probably win convincingly put them players in the modern day training regimes then they would demolish todays teams

its comparative I guess

Im not sure

Boyd, Tamati, Jackson did 80 minutes in the premiership final
the TWO subs were a full back - Johno, and a second row - Billy Mcginty

the speed of the premiership final was frenetic.
Watch Boyd do his 80 minutes, he scored the opener, he even backed up johno for christ sakes when he scored his length of the field try (admittedly Boyd would have been on the half way line to start with) but the game was well won by then. And then he finished it off and scored the last try.

Tamati had played prop for New Zealand the previous year ( and Gave Greg Dowling a bloody good hiding) but had a superb game at hooker.....

and Jacko well he was a concrete mixer that just never stopped.....

Ashton Sims...??? never heard of her...!!!

I can only assume it was the contested scrums but back in the day props were gnarled, rugged and hard. 25 year old props looked like old men and we're generally as wide as they were tall. Whilst the other rugby game still produces these beasts the Super League equivalent tends to be a tall athlete. Very efficient but not half as entertaining

Great photo Flying B! Great player and a great bloke too.
