Yet these same people on about continuity have Warrington finishing lower.

Pumpkin- not only do you have Brown going you have also created a UK league and a numbering system without a 10!! Where have you been?

Simalar for last season for us bewtween 5th and 7th IMO.

I think we have a slightly stronger squad as it stands, better props, attacking LF and 2 good wingers.

If we use Berrigan at centre and Houghton at hooker we will also be stronger in that position.

Big key is getting more games out of halfbacks, Tansey should be used as backup with Whiting at FB. Nicklas to get a few games at halfback also a key.

I'm expecting a big season from Tansey if he can cut out his error rate he has chance of international rugby.

We lost a few games last year that we shoud have won, so if we can turn them into points who knows.

6th place or above and a good challenge cup run will do for me.

I think the top 4 will be the same as last year, in fact I expect the top7 to be in the 8 with Bradford replacing Crusaders.

Not picking on you btw Dave pal, just fancied dipping my toes into posting for once!

Agree pal



Makes us laugh how people think a e coach can get us to success just because he's been there for too bloody long

Have I missed a signing?

Fitzgibbon

Thats my thinking

4 props of Fitz, O Meley, Moa and Radford

is better than what we ahd last year.

No problem thats what it's all about.

How would the partnerships work though? By pairing Fitzgibbon and O'Meley then you would have circa 40 minutes a game with neither on the pitch. Splitting them would mean that it would be very infrequent to see them both on the pitch at the same time.
I just dont see Agar moving Fitzgibbon up to the front row.

He'll spend more time being flogged at 13 than he will being properly spelled at prop

Do you need partnerships at props?

As long as we have 2 decent props at any time then it doesn't matter who plays with who, both O Meley and Fitz can play more than 40 minutes per game.

If we dont play Fitz at prop i cant see where they would play him with Westerman signing and our 2 backrowers we have.

For the start of the season with radford out we only have 3 props plus Lauaki or Fitz, i cant see us playing Lauaki there so it should be Fitz.

With Berro going (alledgedly

)...maybe a big signing coming in



I will stick with my 4th prediction

But we do have halfbacks,it's just that we dont have any quality back up to cater for injurys.I am hoping Longy and Horney have a injury free season but i wont hold my breath.

And you'll be wrong

I'll wait until I know that all recruitment is finished before posting mine, still think there could be some movement going on in SL.

Mmmm...Got to admit I think you maybe right, I believe we could finish 3rd.

I am usually pretty good with my predictions, ask your moderator

What so just because berrigan could be going and your going to get a big named signing your going to finish 3rd please tell me why then your club as not managed so far to recruit a big name

Westermans got loads of letters.

because we operate a sound business model, which operates at a profit, and we don't flash cash we haven't got and then go cap in hand to the council to help us keep our promises?

that do you?

Neither do we

really, so where is your loan coming from?

Spot on Dave.
