Funny but true,

Everyone can see why a young lad at Widnes would swap for a blue chip RL name.

Savelio swapping for Warrington would just be head scratching.

Why?
In his time at Saints, Wire have won more, and even performed better at the academy levels in the years he was in them. As I've said previously IF Wire have offered him a much better contract and Saints won't match it then he will move on.

Warrington are a nothing organisation. An influx of money doesn't change whom you are - they're a wilderness RL club desperately trying to be taken seriously. Their recent success in the Cup coincided with our biggest barren spell in 20 years or so. In one season, we won more league titles than they've managed since the pill was invented. Our success at Academy level is the very reason Savelio joined us in the first place so I'm not having any of that.

Money I'd agree although I'm not convinced they've offered significantly more. His advisors must need their heads testing. As I've said before, Wigan, Leeds, the NRL, I'd be annoyed but could at least understand it. They offer the same as we do competitive wise whilst the NRL is obviously a whole different level. Warrington ? Hull won the Cup recently as well, why not join them ? They're another wilderness club.

I do hope your right, but the overwhelming opinion on two sites says your wrong

Re: Tom Gilmore : Sat Jun 27, 2015 11:30 am  

I know he had showdown talks the week before last over not signing his contract and talking to another super league club but I don't know the outcome.

Someone on here posted he had signed long term deal but then strong rumours he's signed for warringron. We will just have to wait and see

I was told he was 'dropped' after the Wigan game, where he'd played very well. That coincided with the showdown meeting you mention.

We can likely surmise how the meeting went from that.

He's signed for Warrington. St.Pete will vouch for my posts. Done deal.
