I'd be amazed if you signed Lomax, very good NRL centre, who will get in alot of NRL clubs signed on a long term deal, is only 23.

Absolutely no chance he would come to SL at this stage in Hodgson career.

Yeah it seems like a bit of a stretch

I think the recruitment team at the club need a massive kick up the booty.
There was the bright idea of Luther Burrell that didn't work ,Big Tom who went back home & the Aussie before him who wouldn't stay & now we have forwards on the books who are walking liabilities.
Even in the days of the sainted Tony Smith we were signing projects & liabilities. Its about time the club employed a proper ,knowledgeable scout to suss out the talent that we need.

Someone like Peter Farrell would be a good shout. Very knowledgeable. A proper scout.

Isn`t he already employed by Wire as a scout?

I believe he was headhunted by a club which has no track record of either bringing through young talent or of success.

This season is fast turning into an absolute poop show.

Warrington need to dip into their pockets and sign replacements for Mikaele and McGuire and quick.

The pack is weak. Bullock and Dudson are not up to standard. Philbin is made of biscuit and Kasiano blows hot and cold. The only prop earning his corn is Vaughan.

Come on Warrington pull yer fingers out!

How would you describe the seasons that the likes of Huddersfield, Hull, Leeds, Cas & Wakefield are having, if you think we are having a bad one?..

I’m not interested in any other clubs.

The focus is purely Warrington.
Early season promised so much but we haven’t been the same since Mikaele left. He was never replaced.

We are on a downward trajectory in terms of performances and results. If you can’t see that then I don’t know what to say.

I don't think you'll find many Warrington fans, or posters on this board that disagree with your sentiment of wanting action from the club. But playing devils advocate, who do you think is available half way through the season (not under contract), and of the quality required, that you think the club should be 'pulling there fingers out' to sign ?
