Warrington have not recruited well in this area & relied on youth.

They haven't really, they have used myler, bridge, Ratchford and O Brian, none if them are young or inexperienced. Patton is the only one who is young and he has only played a few games.
The problem Warrington have had if that none of them are a Briers type player, we have that in Sneyd.
Say he signs for 3 years and with Sneyd still having 3 years left, what would you think if you were either of the young halfs?
This isn't the type of signing we need and certainly not a position we are desperate in.

I'm with Dave K on this. At some point in the near future HTW and Dean will need to get some game time at senior level to continue their development. Bringing in another young half on a long deal may block that development.

if I was Reece or Harry I would just be concentrating on myself & getting my body ready for going full time, it's a big step up & one I admire the club for not rushing these future stars, I would learn in that environment from the likes of pryce mini & Ellis who have been around for a long time, mini is at county road first in a morning & last to leave, a true professional in every sense, I would also take my chance as & when it comes, even though we sign a journey man for 3 years what's to say he will see this contract out.

I agree, there both still young, how many 6/7`s do we see in superleague that are under 20 years of age, going out on dual reg or loan in league 1 or 2 will help them both tremendously, in a couple of years they might well be ready and hopefully wearing the black and white for years to come, wouldn`t it be great to have a couple of home bred halbacks playing for the mighty FC

To right & they have the right attributes to go on to the top & hopefully stay at FC on long deals, by the time sneyds deal & if this Carlos T signs & sees out a 3 year deal, they would be 22-23 & plenty of years in front of them.

Next year they will be both the same age as Logan and Abdull are this year, so I'd expect them one of them to play 5-7 games next year which should cover injuries.
I wouldn't mind if we were signing chris Sandor or Chase, but this rumoured signing is a reserve grade player.
