Simple reason we have the 5 Warrington players is we are down to just 16 players! The squad is too small and 4 squad players released and not replaced. I would rather have Max Wood, Taylor-Wray, Bardsley- Rowe etc but beggers can't be choosers.
Well if joey and Brett are not in the 17 they might as well leave now, putting us down to a minimal squad
dr is not the future
Wire have announced that George Williams is out for 8-10 weeks, so there is little chance Oli Leyland will be playing here, I'd imagine.

This a reason I think we should have a decent size squad. Players like Bailey and that Jones we released should have been good enough to get an opportunity when injuries occur. It makes me wonder why we signed them if not willing to play them?Get 5 or 6 injuries our squad is fucked.
Where are all the fans gone who came to the Warrington game?
Everyone knows there is a Widnes game every weekend, some home, some away.
I can only assume people want to watch us play the likes of Warrington, they don't want to bother with games against Championship teams.
It's that simple.
Looks like wire could be looking at options from the championship

He has hardly done that great for Widnes. Gilmore and Patton too similar we need a running half back to compliment Gilmore or Patton. Joey Lyons at least runs. What has happened to Hayes and let Ford leave too?
So in summary - we need to use the dual reg better, but not too well as we might lose our identity as a club.
It's no wonder the club can't win 😆
Doro gone to Bradford whitehead ( wire) to Halifax ligh let a second row go to Sheffield and we get kids plus leyland is in wire squad too it's like we don't even try !! You can loan people from outside your dual reg as fax and Bradford have shown there's players available we just don't try
Doro is not an improvement as far as I am concerned
the problem we have is relying on dr
it will never work
we have a very small squad - still bigger than Halifax mind
but we have released players and not replaced them, so when we have injuries we have to relay on dr players
@berkeleyviking doro is certainly a improvement on 4 untried youngsters , whitehead is a improvement there's players going on loan all over the championship and we get youngsters
@berkeleyviking we'll harthill isn't getting in the swinton team and them and Warrington have allowed him to come to us lol so a lad that can't get in at division one swinton can't be as good as doro ok fella 🙈
Doro was great for Bradford last season, so much so that he was signed by the 2nd best team in SL Hull KR. I would have him in our side.
The Warrington players we have this week are not the best. We have had Rodrick Tai and Taylor-Wray in the squad at points this season and not played them. I would love to know if we just decided not to pick them.
@gpo1971 I don’t see the connection. Every sport has a loan players, Widnes using dual reg and loaning a few Wire players doesn’t impede on identity.
