honestly this is the best squad ive seenw warrington have ever (me only being 16) i think every player in this squad would play first team starting rugby for most other clubs, we could split this team down the middle and both would be play off teams at least. i think this year for the first time we wont be worried about injuries (too much) because of the people we have left waiting in the wings, aswell players like ben evans and laithwaite etc will come through who i have big hopes for. any thoughts?

It is very good but age within the core positions is a concern for me. These days with sports science and general conditioning the way it is it's not AS important, but next year I think we'll be going through some changes.

Think you will miss king but think you have adequate back-up at centre. Very strong squad.

I've heard big things about young Blythe-Club.

caught me out copied the squad details from huddersfield forum. guilty

briers retires and we have myler ratchford and obrien which will cause competiton for places so they will have to perform each week,
morley retiring will obviously hit us hard but i think we will recruit someone aswell as having players like cooper, ben evans etc young good players
riley, burke or that kid we signed from bradford who's name escapes me can take the full back role which gives more competition for places riley has already proved he is up to standard
im not as worried

We have this thread every off season I think every year of Cullen's reign we heard that next year was our year for trophies.

Obviously now we have a top side and should be optimistic but I am a bit wary of next season tbh.

As Wirefan says it's an ageing side in key positions, and some players will start to decline, but we might just get through this year. As of last year guys like Morley, Briers, Hodgson, King and both Monaghans were either the best in their position or as good as anyone in their position in the league but the first three are approaching the end of their careers and King has gone so will we still have six top players like that? Possibly getting Trent Waterhouse in we might now have the best backrower in the league, we will see.

I still would tip us to finish top as I don't think Wigan or Saints or Leeds have clearly strengthened but I am not taking anything for granted about next year. Sometimes you see sides like Chelsea or AC Milan a few years ago, that everyone think is ageing, and they hang on and win the title....the downside is they keep those same players together for a couple more years and then they really are ageing.

Also time will tell on what's happening to Myler, if he is not here next year then hopefully we can get by with Ratchford or O'Brien there, but it will weaken us if we have to go back to Michael Monaghan at 7 instead of hooker.

We certainly have strength in depth but we won't know for a while if we have quality in depth, Rhys Evans made a good debut for us but he went a bit quiet after that, thats understandable given he's just starting out his career at SL level, its a big step up from the rugby he's been playing in the under 20's.

We won't know for a couple of seasons how good the likes of Gareth O'Brien, Rhys Evans, Ben Evans and Chris Hill will turn out to be. The potential is certainly there, its a big step up from potential to being the real deal though.

Matt King will be a huge loss both in height, strength, defence and bringing the ball out. He scored some impossible looking tries that only the likes of him would score due to his shear size, height as well as agility.

Like a few others have pointed out we have a few ageing players in key positions that won't be as nimble and as effective as time goes by, Lee Briers is like a fine wine at the min, he just gets better with age so thats a big plus.

Quietly optimistic but cautious as well.

IMHO.

Best squad in SL.

The only reason u didnt win last year was u met leeds on the best they played in 3 years.

my prediction.

Shit helens
wigan
Whinooeess.

yeeehaaaagh brrrrring on the new season
lets silence the critics and develop the new blood

Warrington need to plan ahead more. Less flat track bullying and more focus on the business end of the season. Giving the younger players more game time is the way to do that. Keep the key players as fresh as daisies and if you lose a few seemingly winnable games, who cares.

Just wondering which player departures will hurt which team most; Warrington with King, Skints with Eastmond and Graham and Wiggin with Hoffman and JTomkins.
