thought howarth should have been kept. he impressed well early on in the season. then he got unlucky with an injury and everyones form dipped towards the end anyway. thought he would be worth another year to develop properly with the experience and knowledge of some class 2nd rowers in ali, southern and morro.

also, i think morrison wont be playing much this season. i think he will be more of a rotation or back up player to allow others to have a rest. i think youll see southern and mariano as 2 of your 11, 12 and 13 then ali or morro or washbrook as the other.

I think Ali will be more of an impact player and Morrison more of a back up with him being an assistant. Washbrook is an LF so more likley him but we also have some good youngsters who can play there aswell.

Thats good then so before hes seen any of the players in training and combination's in matches hes decided his starting 17. might as well tell the rest of them to stay at home.

But he saw the huddersfield, hull, hullKR, leeds,and wakey players last year. Lots of fans on here have put up their starting 17 are they crazy too? Agar is just the same, he has a good knowledge of strengths and weaknesses of the team last year and has brought in players to eradicate those weaknesses. it's not a slight on the younger lads, but gives them time to develop instead of being thrown in at the deep end. If he had no idea at this stage of who his starting 17 would be, i'd be worried.

Haven't read the whole thread but where does it say we have released Henderson and J Smith? According to wiki they are still with Wakey?

He might have seen him there but to say to a player your in my starting 17 before the friendlies have even began.People have put there starting 17 on here but there not the manager of WTW unless Agar is secretly spying on here!
Why would you be worried if he didnt know his starting 17? the squad is big enough to play 2 squads almost! Or do we want to go back to being able to name the starting 17 every week ourselves.
I have no problem with Andy Raleigh and think he has done very well be it at prop, second row or loose for Huddersfield i also think he will do very good job in any of those 3 positions when he plays i just dont agree with telling players they will be in the starting 17 before they have even played.

Have to say, im disappointed that we've not come to an agreement to renew Howarth's contract. The lad looked like a potential future captain and started the season very well prior to his injury. Whilst the likes of Washbrook and Morro have the experience of playing SL week in week out, i've a feeling we've let a real good one leave

Re: not retained/ retired/transferred : Fri Nov 04, 2011 4:39 pm  

With regard to Tongia, could it be that initially he came to us on a seasonal 3 month visa and now we intend to make the move permanent we're waiting on full visa?

Re: not retained/ retired/transferred : Fri Nov 04, 2011 8:19 pm  

I think its fair to say that we are all curious regarding the future of Hendo, Tongia and Tadulala. I hope the club announces something soon, which I am sure they will to be fair.
