He was a Wire stalwart and I believe is on that could be genuinely disgruntled about how he was treated at the end

Fantastic player for us in both stints, he absolitely has to be right up there as one of our very best academy products of the superleague era.

Wish him well in his retirement, we should be really grateful for all of his efforts in the pnb.

I'd be very interested in an impartial account of what happened at the end. Whatever it was, it was very sad that a genuine Warrington lad, product and stalwart ended up leaving the club under a cloud in the middle of the dismal Powell era. Especially since Wigan then did what they always do and claimed him as one of theirs.

Wish him every success in what comes next (unless it is : Wigan coach).

Apparently a "bad apple"
Hmmmmm, well we all know who the "bad apple" was.

A top player. Not too many SL players go to the NRL and are a success. I hope he enjoys his retirement.

Good solid forward. Wish him well. I didn't like that barging into Price and shame it all ended as it did.
