| Yes ,i must agree we do need an enforcer but is Ben Hannant the man for the job. I don't know anything about him so i'm just asking the question. The lack of an enforcer was evident in the game at the HJ against Saints where we were bullied in the forwards. The problem with hoping for Southern Hemisphere players to turn out to be enforcers though is that most Anzacs & Islanders are pretty laid back & non confrontational.

| The worry with Ben hanent is he was reportedly homesick for brisbane while playing in Sydney!!! He's a top forward but that homesick thing makes me nervous. Unless its a Joel moon kind of homesickness. .....

| Someone who "gets it" thats what UKIP say.
It depends on your ambitions, do you want Warrington to be a 6th-8th place club with local lads in it, or do you want Warrington to be a club competing for trophies.
In the past few years we've had the second approach which was based on denying our home grown youngsters a chance so we could have the likes of Carvell, Morley and Hill in the front row imported from other teams.
We could reverse that policy now and just play our own youngsters but then if they aren't as good as the likes of Carvell, Morley and Hill we will need to have other excuses: maybe Tony Smith has run out of steam as a coach?

| Here's an idea... lets never sign another player that's not 'local'... then we can all 'get it'.
I always loved a good relegation battle anyway.

| paul cullen once said he didn't care whether a player was from Woolston all Woollongong.
Right now i think we can all appreciate the validity of that statement.

| Atrocitasi hasn't shown anything, pay him off a year and stick a kid in the side, if only for experience.

I agree with the sentiment, but which kid exactly? The game isn't exactly awash with young props and if you mean young, BRITISH prop, then the talent pool just got a whole lot smaller.

| If you just put a young kid in prop in Super League for experience, unless he is something really special, the only experience he is going to get is the experience of getting smashed by senior pros.
Or maybe we could sign some of the lads from London as they have got lots of experience of getting smashed....surely that experience has made them good players by now?

| Anyone who has at least some heart, I care not for who it is, Danny Bridge even?
I'd have Chris Riley at prop before Roy.

Considerably more than on it I would hope, or he isn't injured he's clinically dead.

| Do the Wire have a Chief Scout ,Southern Hemisphere in place ,who could well be Roy's agent, or will we have bought him after watching a few youtube videos of him in his glory days ? Either way it doesn't look to be a very good antipodean recruitment policy.

| Quote ="rubber duckie"I'm gonna face some stick but here but there could be some movement to secure a prop and he could be here before the end of June , he is contracted until the end of 2014.
Moley has already tweeted about a 29 year old prop with talks of signing to Warrington. He is rarely wrong.
It fits in with with one prop who isn't playing in the best of form and is earning so much that I doubt any NRL club has enough in their cap to pay him this year. He's reportedly the biggest earning prop in the NRL of around Aus$500k per year.
Ben Hannant? He is currently out of favour at Broncos only getting selection to the bench at best and recently he's been playing for Ipswich Jets.
That's like Morley playing at Swinton when still at Warrington.
It was reported a couple of weeks ago that Broncos were looking for suitors to buy him.
If the £400k hole in our salary cap is true that probably means only Warrington could sign him without him having to take a huge pay cut.
Moley won't say who in his tweet.
I noticed this about Ben Hannant a couple of weeks back and I thought what if? Now I'm putting 2 and 2 together here with Moley.'"
Ashton Simms, spoke to Wire during the WC.

Other than being under 30 years he doesn't fit Moleys profile.
He said he is in poor form whereas Sims has been appointed their new captain this week and Sims hasn't played State of Origin unlike Moley said the ? had.
