It is also easier to defend against scooting when the opposition don't have to place at least one and possibly two defenders further out wide to combat Currie, which means they can compress the centre of the park.

I have no issues with his runs from dummy half, he is effective as the stat proves. My issue is that when we pair him up with Hughes you might as well have a neon sign point the way for the attack as they can not defend in that position. you are playing 2 players out of position together along with a changing second row each week. They have not built a relationship despite playing together for a while. Therefore its not working.
Savelio has showed that if we run lines we can make yards, something Hughes cant do.

Russell isn't out of position though?

Because he sure isn't anything else other than a below average winger.

Smith also confirmed new signings Peta Hiku and Ben Pomeroy are not ready to face the Dragons on Saturday. Pomeroy has trained with his new teammates but is currently suffering with a minor knee injury. Bargain. http://www.warringtonguardian.co.uk/spo ... d_Pomeroy/

Any chance he can play Saturday?!?

Re: Rumours : Wed Jun 21, 2017 2:02 pm  

Russell being used to his strength, tough to tackle with ball in hand. As unreliable under high ball, low ball and poor passing skills he certainly isn't a fullback. Probably in the only place he can play and doing what he is capable of doing.

Is Penny injured?

I don't think so but he was brought back after a long lay off and was clearly not match ready. Unfair on him and not really going to help when the new contracts are handed out.
