Although I think the answer you're looking for is zero.

But as usual, your cataracts are blinding you from what was actually said.
I never claimed Warrington did, the other fella claimed Hull KR had..well, where are they, note he said plural.

You need to give this vendetta up, you're getting owned by me far too regularly this week.



You started it with this

Quote: Dico , Unlike Hull Kr with their recent dispensations on Lovegrove and Gene
Kr are as much of a joke as Crusaders.
Try getting a ground where the away fans dont have to visit amsterdam to watch a game


Yes my Leigh colleague was wrong as far as HKR are concerned , but the pan calling the kettle black springs to mind , so who was the last GB player produced by the Wire ? , the last one from Leigh was Mickey Higham I'd guess the last one from HKR was John Wilkin , both of these players produced from clubs outside SL

So who was it and what excuse can you give us for the apparent lack of them in recent years , even you friends down the road have performed better than you in this respect with Myler

SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!

You're having a giraffe claiming Higham :D
In which case we're claiming Sculthorpe and Harris. Although did Paul Wood have a bench spot one year about 05? I cant remember if it was GB or England, one of the two

The point still stands, we haven't had 12 overseas players, had to apply to the RFL for dispensations, our ground actually provides somewhere for away fans to watch a game and so what if we didnt produce them, we still provide a platform for a lot of English players to play league at the highest level. We then haven't topped it off by deriding another club for doing the exact same thing

You mean the Mickey Higham that came through our academy and won MOM in our 2000 GF loss

So you still cant tell us who it was , I'll ask on your site , I'm sure a real Warrington fan will know

Saints made him the player he was, without them he'd be a complete nobody playing for Leigh.
I can't think of any warrington wolves PRODUCED player in the last 5 years or so thats gone on to play for Britain.

Don't try and claim it's Coley either, as he is I suppose warrington born.

No , they took him from Leigh , by produced it means coming through a junior club system and playing for that 1 st team , somebody has suggested Paul Wood , although I wasn't sure if it GB or England

I said Paul Wood. Think it was England though when it was really GB A.
Anyway this has gone well off topic.
The point still stands, KR cant really throw stones when they've done the same

But I didn't.
I was simply pointing out the hypocrisy with the KR fan.

Back on topic .......... there were about 10 away fans at Wigan last night. Compare that with Widnes or Leigh who would bring 1500-2000 fans. Expansion is a wonderful idea, but can clubs afford to miss out on vital income year on year.






Quote from Graham Lowe - "I'm 49, I've had a brain haemorrhage and a tripple bypass and I could still go out and play a reasonable game of rugby union ......... but I wouldn't last 30 seconds in rugby league!"
