The poor lad waisted years being a top centre at Halifax and finally a good coach has seen his true position

Has he signed for Warrington?

He started his career with Leigh Academy playing at prop. Was turned into a centre by that former Warrington coach, I forget his name

People say that Fax are weaker. but how can you be sure yet, yes we lost a 20 try a season full back, but whose to say Greenwood couldnt be just as good

we lost Maloney a big loss yes, but Aizue is stepping up this year after a hit and miss first season.

we lost Glesson, who didnt play for half the season last year and we won the grand final without him.

we lost Branighan yes but Jones is better than he was when he left, he did well with Keighley last year and he's playing with better players.

whats weak about this team may i ask?

1. Greenwood/ Feildhouse
2. White
3. Goddard/ Paterson
4. Nash/Haley/Ratu
5. Worrincy
6. Jones/ Holly/ Beswick/Bowman
7. Black
8. Aizue/Cerryholme
9. Penky
10. Ostick/Clayton
11. Bannister
12. Larder/ Smith
13. Barlow/ Beswick/ Smith

now that looks like a pretty solid championship side to me.

we do our business out wide though VM, we were ok last season in the forwards but our game is more based on getting wound the opposition instead of through them

Sorry, it was actually the 'wound them' I meant to highlight stupid phone!

I really wish we'd of stayed away from this DR system and just signed a decent prop. Would have been a lot more confident then, however we've still got a very strong team. And this early loss could be a god send in some ways, might make the squad realise that they're not going to cruise this year...
