''the problem is in that game the french fielded players from your les moos carcasson etc, that's the equivelant from over here of your batleys, dewsburys and your warringtons''

roughly went like that

LOL

"...they're the equivalent of your Batleys, your Dewsburys, your Warringtons and Barrows".

There you go, saved you all wasting a few minutes you'll never get back.

Cartman in Ray French is an old duffer shocker

why doesn't he just retire with good grace.

the man shouldn't allowed within 50ft of a broadcasting microphone.

He's so out of touch with modern rugby league its a joke.

I think he's makes a fair point. I can't recall many Warrington born (or academy developed) test players emerging in recent years. It's probably less than Lezignan, Carcassonne and Limoux!

bit like wigan really with all your homegrown talent packing your first team out.

Good Point - Goulding, Hock, O'Loughlin, J.Tomkins, S.Tomkins, Hansen, McIlorum, Prescott, Mossop, Ainscough all prove your point.

Probably why you win nowt anymore!!

Can you name a few Warrington born (or academy developed) England test player from recent times?

Andrew Johns?

Is their a Warrington in Australia?

Bobby Fulton wasn't bad!

paul sculthorpe,iestyn harris spring to mind.
this season weve seen riley,cooper,mitchell,blythe get plenty of game time plus tyrone mc carthy and oh yes nearly forgot we won a trophy too.

So thats as recent as it gets?

Ashton, Aspinwall, Wild, Robinson, Hodgson.

So 2 in recent times.

Maybe Ray French has a point..

So you espouse the inane ramblings of Ray French.

Says it all really.

Exactly. I don't think it was a tongue slip.

Mr Cartman, you are trolling again. Suggest you get back under your bridge, get back on your own Site, and carry on making up your ridiculous rumours about one of your own players.

Ronnie Duane.......any better?

But I take your point.

I think Warrington are taking a step in the right direction with their youth policy and perhaps that'll help the England/GB cause. I certainly hope so as the crop from "recent times" have certainly got nothing to shout about!

Wellens, Cunningham (did he make a contribution to International RL, debatable, Roby......

However funny it is, Ray French is a bit of an idiot.

It is interesting that Warrington have not had many players coming through to play for the national side, maybe this extra development of youth is what they have been missing for so long.

From around about 1996 to 2002.

When DVDV was at Wilderspool he got rid of the Youth teams. The only person from that era to really come through was Paul Wood.
