Carvells stats:

2003 - 21 appearances, 199 tackles, 1578 metres
2004 - 13 appearances, 145 tackles, 1335 metres
2005 - 19 appearances, 243 tackles, 1824 metres
2006 - 25 appearances, 482 tackles, 2289 metres
2007 - 17 appearances, 299 tackles, 1677 metres
2008 - 9 appearances, 155 tackels, 957 metres

So 23 appearances on average, 254 tackels, 1610 metres.

At £135k a year that's £5.8K a game, £530 a tackle 0r £83 a metre.

If you think he is worth that, for another 4 seasons, then good luck to you.

£135k my booty. This is Warrington, he will be on at least £250k.

I was one of a few saying that we shold not be giving him a big money contract about 3/4 months ago. He is not rubbish, but he is not a £135k a year player on past form.

If you can get 4 seasons like 2006 out of him then you're laughing.

We've ruined far better players than Carvell before now.

I'd be horrified if we signed this crock on a massive contract!

Nick Fozzard joined Warrington with a terrible injury record. He then hardly missed a game in four years for Warrington and St Helens (until this season).

In fairness, in them days our props were held together with blue tack & a dozen hidden shin pads wrapped in 3ft layers of bandage.

He wouldn't have been fit to play in any case.

Neither were half our players who played
