Bizarre comment because what he says is pretty much true.

We will need another prop for next season (injuries/suspensions).

We could do with a better Centre than Dean/Marsh/Isa.

We do need another hooker for next season along with White, so hopefully we can sign Mick Shane.

Hanbury started off slow but now he's showing what he can do, mainly because our pack isn't getting stream rolled anymore.

as i say i go to most home games anyway as long as they dont clash with any wire games and i have been watching rugby for a long time i am just pointing out as a neutral with no trolling etc as like i say i like what you are doing at the club and what you are trying to achieve and i follow it quite closely as my wifes a chemic.

yes i have a banter and the rest of it and i cheered as much as you guys when you got the license as i wanted the derby back but if you think what i say isn't true then you are deluded.

superleague is all about strength in depth rather too many than too little etc

and i stick with you need

1x prop big intimidating prop
1x hooker
1x centre (you cant be happy with penalty machine isa
2-3x rotation players utility 1x back that can fill centre,wing,fullback 1 or 2 forward backrowers.

rant over and sorry paddy none aimed at you bud

I disagree as we have plenty of props now with Cross,Pickersgill,Davies,O Carroll,Kite,and Kavanagh.6 props is what is required, but if Kite goes i think one prop.Dean has played well recently and we will sign a hooker.We are not made of money like Warrington either, and i think Pickers is a bench player in my opinion, as done well in the last few games.Remember he has only just recovered from a serious neck injury.We know we need a few extra players, and i dont need a cocky Wire fan spouting off.Had too many Wire fans on here talking about how poor we are, and i wish they all sod off.We are not made of money and their is a salary cap?Not getting enough fans to buy quality like Wigan or Warrington.

Isa is a decent winger and Dean and Marsh will be the centres.So aimed at me because i disagree with you?We will add about 4 players to the squad that we already have anyway.Did you watch us against Saints, as i think our forwards dominated.Tickle is already signing, and i support Betts judgement more than yours, if having a pop at me.

No one is having a pop. Just people giving their honest opinions, the guy was just trying to have a discussion.

I do admire your passion for Widnes and we'll soon be the cocky fans spouting off to the likes of Wire/Wigan/Saints :wink:
