    Is he going to be another 'tampon' player like Bradley Clyde?

    He can have an adjoining bed with Blake Austin at Warrington Hospital. Then both play on the wing for England at the end of the year.
    I could agree with you but then we would both be wrong.

    I predicted he would only manage a couple of games before getting the injury card out, didn't expect that to be training sessions. Wire could sign up Kevin Brown for a month if he's not doing anything or maybe Matty Smith fancies a loan out from Widnes.

    "a lower limb injury" well i've never come across a more vague description of an injury, which implies either he's ready to go and Warrington just wanted some column inches or it's a lot worse than reported.

    They've got options. They'll probably put Mamo to full back and Ratchford to SO.

    Warrington will be fine - the Bookies reckon there is only us and the Pie Eaters preventing it being the Year of the Wolf

    I dont like seeing players injured...but the Icing on the cake would be him claiming "home sickness" for his poor form/ wanting to go back to Aus about half way through the season.

    Its just a good job doctors and physios don't count against the salary cap, Widdop’s need for them would put Warrington in the region of a points deduction if it did.

    Poor Warrington. Nobody could have possibly seen this coming. They really get all the bad luck.
    Forwards win games. The backs decide by how much.

    He claimed homesickness was a part of his move here.

    Bit of propaganda. Little mention of the foot injury.

    Wants to win a Grand Final with Wire.

    So did/do hundreds of others. Never did though.
    Loyal and true, not a glory hunter.

    I want to date Margot Robbie as well. I'd say it is unlikely
