It could be that for whatever reason they just don’t work well under the coach at the time. Philbin looked decent under Price but poor under Powell but then again who didn’t at Wire. Griffin was ok under Radford and looked ok until his Achilles and has looked off it since so maybe a lot to do with lack of confidence.
It looks like there are going to be big changes at Warrington due to a terrible season. Some of the big name players are not producing (sounds familiar), and Powell is looking to have a big clear out.
From what I've read on the Wire board Philbin has been one of these players and it wouldn't surprise me if Powell wants him out. Although I can't understand though why a player of his experience would be a loaned out for a season rather than a permanent move.
