'I've done things i'm not proud of. And the things i am proud of,.......well they're disgusting'

Re: Leadership group 2023 : Thu Jan 26, 2023 5:17 pm  
Mcguire will be the leader out on the field regardless of whether he has the title of captain or not. Its just the way he is and I'm made up we've signed him.

Other players have been mentioned regarding what they bring to the party but Paul Vaughan unless I have missed has not been mentioned at all, with all his NRL and international experience one would hope he will be a leader by example. Perhaps they are keeping him under the radar.

i think generally everything has been low key this season, there's been no arriving at the airport pics or anything.

I dont know if its changed recently at fans forums,(theres been a couple recently) but the one before xmas gave the air of, dialing stuff back a bit, trying to get fans back on side(thats a big thing off field community stuff and on field, keeps getting mentioned by moose) and also not saying whatsoever that we're aiming for a trophy.


i'm in two minds this year, i'm trying to clean slate it, but it could go a couple of ways, it could be that we've addressed a few issues with the pack, and we've got a speedster in dufty which could be enough on its own to win a fair few games, it could work.

OR

it could take ages for all the new players to click during games.

I'm happy for most ppl to not be automatically including us in top 5/trophy conversations so we can go about our business quietly

Last year, the appointment of Jack Hughes was a mistake, and I believe Ratchford follows in the same respect.

McGuire or Vaughn should be captain for me.

Agree totally with fmc.

I'm happy with the clean slate version and just see what happens game by game. I'm expecting us to be better than last season but I don't expect us to be competing with the top clubs at all.

Just thinking I can't remember anyone who has ever been appointed Club Captain without playing a game for Wire. Actually I can ... Alex Murphy but he was Coach as well & there are not many like him. It's rare in any club.

I just don't think Ratchford merits a shirt in the starting 13, he's just too slow. Also, I've never seen him as captain material, and that said, nobody stepped up and looked the part in a captaincy roll, last season, either. Therefore, it has to be one of the new signings, or maybe Dufty.

Matt Rodwell maybe? That turned out alright.

Just my opinions unless it's a FACT, in which case it's a fact.

Re: Leadership group 2023 : Sat Jan 28, 2023 11:52 am  
Vaughan not even in the leadership group would suggest he isn’t interested in the role and wants to concentrate on his own game.
