Unless we can bring in a very good replacement, I'd keep King and have him on the right and Lindop on the left.  I'd be ok keeping Tai and Wrench as back up.  I'd love a new strike centre to play alongside Lindop, but we have to focus our cap space where it is needed


Similar with Thewlis, I think we could probably do better on the wing, but Let's focus cap space where we need it.


Vaughan I'd keep if there were no better options, Musgrove I think should go - I'd like a wrecking ball, but it doesn't seem Burgess' style.


Crowther I can't see why we'd keep him and not an academy player, keeping him would just remind me of Minikin now in terms of blocking development for no reason.


Back row is absolute top priority for me.


I'd be letting go: Ratchford, Musgrove, Crowther as well as  Russell and Leyland if we can get them off cap.


I'd be keeping Vaughan, Tai, Wrench and Powell - I doubt we could get better for the price and I'm not aware of a young player at 9 we have confidence in ready to step up in the immediate term.


I'd be signing the best Back Rower we can find, and a prop that can help us dominate.

He’d be a significant upgrade on our current right centre.

Genuine strike centre, be a good addition. Just for the rest of the year or are they looking at a multi year deal?

Apparently Burgess is looking to sign Tui kamikamica, i wouldn't mind him here at all. Another big bulldozer prop like Vaughan, he'd be a much Welcomed forward for us. Him, Vaughan, Byrne, Harrison, Philbin etc makes us look MUCH better.
He might take a paycut to stay at Melbourne though as that looks like his only choice to stay in Oz.

I am always sceptical these days with overseas recruitment ,too many come with either lack of commitment or disciplinary baggage. Remember Roy Has it easy & i'm sure Ese Ese would soon change his name to Easy does it once he got his feet under the HJ table.
Chris Hill was still doing a good job last night.

(The page navigation is on this forum is absolutely dreadful btw, if anyone has worked it out I'd love to know.)


McDonald sounds like a classic Warrington signing. A very skilful player with a, erm, very fickle personality - he'd play the perfect blend of good performances and completely anonymous/error-ridden ones, and as soon as we lost a few games the rumour mill about his extra-curriculars would be in overdrive. And all the people who are bigging him up now would be tutting and blaming the Warrington 'culture'.
