SB had spoken to a few potential coaches, including Matt King, but I doubt it will happen now MG's accepted the role. But stranger things have happened at Warrington. The Brad Dwyer situation being a prime example. He signed a 2 year contract on 9th May, yet nothing has been announced

Hopefully still trying to find a way to back out of that, I wouldn’t blame Dwyer for wanting to stick to it but if has said way back when that Chambers and Burgess don’t want him and the talk of Ratchford at interchange 9 then it will feel awkward for him.
I don't believe the Andy Last story at all, it makes no sense what so ever. Happy with Gleeson Signing for longer with us. As for Kasiano i'd happily (at the moment) let him leave and pick up Jai Whitbread. Early in the season he was great but fell off a cliff and seems a liability now. Whitbread would be a great addition in his place. I love Tanginoa but the positions he plays we don't need cover for so would rather swap a prop for an out and out prop.

He does the basics well, defends well unless he has a decision to make, carries the ball often but without losing a threat etc. but he simply doesn’t have the skill the be any better than he currently is. He’s no worse than Ratchford, or Iain Thornley, or similar. Just an example of poor recruitment.
The thing with Currie is that we expect. If Jack Hughes did what Currie has done this season, there would be a thread saying how good Hughes is and what a genius Lam is for unlocking his unfulfilled potential. But we expect from Currie. It’s not unusual to see him make the final pass for a try, or to get through the line. He’s just held to a higher bar.
I’ve said it about Currie for a couple of seasons. Currie, peanut and Ratchford are trying to make up for the failings of/in our front row.

I think that’s a stretch. Ratchford and Matautia are pretty limited in their abilities. No doubt they are good professionals and are nice to have around the squad, but if I was defending opposite them tomorrow I would sleep well tonight. No pace, no power, no real ability to create space, no ability to beat a man, not good on kick chase, not excellent defenders, not aggressive with line speed, not meter eaters…
