Warrington Squad

Sitaleki Akauola, Ryan Atkins, Mitch Brown, Josh Charnley, Ben Currie, Eribe Doro, Bryson Goodwin, Chris Hill, Jack Hughes, Luis Johnson, George King, Harvey Livett, Pat Moran, Declan Patton, Joe Philbin, Stefan Ratchford, Tyrone Roberts, Morgan Smith, Ben Westwood

Happy Roberts as been left in.

I know one person who would not agree. With Kevin Brown missing he will partner Patton.
P.S. is the "H" missing on your keyboard?

The H thing!! We've all wondered...

And looking forward to seeing if young Doro gets a run out. Still only a kid (16/17) but quite the unit.

Out of the 2 senior halfbacks KB has earned a break this week.
Although Roberts is shaping up and I think ahead of Patton, he's still off where I'd hope he'd be at.
Roberts to play whether he wants to or not.

No as I didn’t realise I was sitting an exam, but you want to be the spelling police knock yourself out.

I honestly don't think people are being spelling police. I think it's because it appears at the start of some of your comments so stands out a bit more, that's all. To be fair to them, it can also make it a different word like 'as' and 'is' which can change the meaning of the sentence. I don't think people are picking.

Interesting selection. Pat Moran has been around for quite a while and has not been given the nod for a debut as yet. This year he has been a regular for Rochdale from the bench, and if he plays, it could be simply to give one of the regulars a little bit of R & R. At the other end of the spectrum though are players that will want to catch the eye. Patton (23 next month) for obvious reasons, but also Johnson, who hasn't really stood out in the warm up games or in the U19's this year. He has a bit more time to kick on than perhaps Patton, but by the end of the year needs to be challenging for a squad place. Doro has plenty of time. As previously mentioned he is only just 17. He is an England youth player, not particularly tall but very muscular, and couldn't take the grin off his face last night at the last U16 game of the season at Crosfields.

I suppose whoever gets picked from the fringes of our squad it will be a balancing act between ensuring we win the game, resting some tired bodies, and giving a bit of development time to others. You would have to guess that Livett, Patton, Mitch Brown, King and Smith will all play. Then in decreasing likelihood; Moran, Luis Brown, Doro. Having said that I would love to see Doro come off the bench on Saturday, not just because he looks a great prospect but also because it will send a positive message to the other Academy players.

Spot on Chaz

Didn’t Pat Moran get a game under Smith? Or was that only in pre-season? For some reason I thought I’d seen him come on from the bench 2016/17.

Pre season at Widnes away?

Is Pat Moran any good, surely if he was then this is the ideal game to give him a shot, or is he there just because his dad is best mates with one of the coaches? I do know that the Rochdale coach wasn't to happy when Warrington sent him there on duel reg.

Tough gig in Rochdale

Pat Moran seems to have been in the squad for a good few years but I don't think has played for the first team in a competitive game. I think his contract is up in November.

Score predictions then? I'm thinking 56-10 to you lot.

Aye if you'd said in the early 2000s that Bradford would be in the 3rd tier people would have laughed. There was a period of time when you only had to turn up to Odsal to guarantee a 50 point thrashing. But you are secretly jealous of visiting Coventry I can tell. I'm philosophical about it. I enjoyed absolutely wonderful times that made me quite tearful, but then I actually did shed a tear when we were liquidated. So anyway, if you could tackle a bit more gently than in a super league game please as we've got a top of the table clash against Donny the week after. ta

I don’t think Sita should play, I just don’t think it would be fair.
