What about Wires pack?

Morley (World class, a beast, best prop England has IMHO)
Monaghan (Best 9 in comp, can win a game on his own, Lance Todd winner)
Carvell (Not hit form yet this season, mainly due to injuiry but very good prop, probabaly the 4th best in England)
Landerson (He's just a beast, takes the ball up gains alot of metres, then in defnece puts massive shots on, only 25)
Westwood (Probably the most underrated player in SL, a workhorse,tackling machine and kicks goals, the Carlos Tevez of RL)
Harrison (Very good young player, just been called up to the England squad, big things expected, loves the big hits!)

Best pack in the league IMO.

I'm a big fan of a lot of those players, especially Morley, Harrison and Wood. I don't feel like I've seen much of Carvell lately, who I've rated highly in the past (as you've said above I'd have put him as 4th for England last year, although I was pleasently suprised with Crabtree in the internationals), although he had a mare last week.
Is Harrison working more in the front or back row at the moment?

Thought Harrison has been playing at LF for most of the season?

He started the season at loose - but this isn't is best posistion IMO and many other Wire fans humble opinion. He's played LF, SR and Prop this season. I think TS knows that deep down he is a Prop, he is the right mould and has the agression, you only have to watch some of the hits he puts on, the one on Fielden last Friday was a cracker!

He's a future Prop I think.

He's been in both when they've been on TV, not sure where he spends the most time.

Warrington will not have the best pack in the league next year.
Graham v Morley - Morley is brilliant but would have Graham anyway.
Roby v Monaghan - hard to say, both great players.
Perry v carvell - not even close
Wilkin v L Anderson - again too close to call.
Soliola v Westwood - I think soliola will do some great things for us if picked at 2nd row.
Flannery v Harrison - Harrison looks like he will go very far.

Add to that puletua, Hargreaves, Moore and possibly 1 or both of lms and Luke Bailey.

Morley and Graham would be too hard to say. Both World Class players.

I agree with them expect the Westwood one.

Graham would be a huge hit in Oz. He already has the agression.

Best pack in the league IMO.

Best coach in the league, best finishing winger in the league, the best two English Centres and the all amazing Matt King.

How the hell do the rest of us compete against this team of superdooper stars? You must be top by a mile right?

Soliola is an animal when fully fit, some of the hits he dished out in the NRL are proof of that. Put it this way, I wouldn't fancy Westwood's chances if he ran at Sia.
