SL Preview: Warrington

SL Preview: Warrington

At last, they did it.

Wire won a trophy! 2009 finally saw success with the Challenge Cup finally being brought back to the Halliwell Jones Stadium.

The aim now for Tony Smith and his captain Adrian Morley is to bring home the Super League crown.

The Wolves have greadually been improving year on year as they look to cement their place at the top of the table. Last season was particularly disappointing as they finished in tenth place, but Smith is adamant that there will be a more consistant Warrington outfit in Super League XV.

Their dismal league table finish was obviously overshadowed by their Cup success but it didn't go un-noticed by the Wire officials.

Richard Myler and Ryan Atkins have been recruited to ensure they push for the play-offs this time out. A weak defence has continued to deter Warrington but Smith will have done much work over the Winter to ensure a vast improvement.

Many have tipped this to be Wire's year but don't forget this has happened before and they have failed to deliver on several occasions.

Adrian Morley says his time at Warrington has probably been the best of his career, that would surely be stamped as true if he were to lift that Super League trophy.

Star man: Richie Myler. The former Salford man signed for Wire in the off season and although he has yet to pull on the Primrose and Blue, the teenager is tipped to have a massive 2010.

Last Tackle prediction: 5th.

In:
Richie Myler - Salford City Reds
Ryan Atkins - Wakefield Trinity Wildcats
David Solomona - Bradford Bulls

Out:

Paul Rauhihi - released
Paul Johnson - Wakefield Trinity Wilcats
Steve Pickersgill - Widnes Vikings
Brian Carney - retired
