Quote Lprhino="Lprhino"The reality is that our four key spine players (myler, Sezer, Austin and Leeming) are not that good in comparison to others across the league.
We have needed myler in the fullback role because I honestly don’t think our halves were good enough to create without him out the back.
We can have an amazing team around those 4 but unless we improve them then I really don’t see us progressing where as a club I am sure they want to go.
As a side Warrington we’re always going to play that style, the team and signings are literally an exact fit. Halves with great short kicking games, big forwards. Pin you in the corner, win the arm wrestle and short kicks to score a try. Unclear why but selection, intensity and everything else didn’t seem set for that type of game. Just a bad performance and I imagine it may have caused a few changes in training for this coming week.'"
Agreed. Those positions must be the priority for 2024 recruitment. Hopefully some of the current encumbents can rise to the challenge over the course of the season, although that certainly didn't happen on Thursday. In fairness, Austin tried his heart out without bring particularly effective.
