DoubleD Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Would seem odd, a very similar player to Gidley, hardly a replacement for Sandow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sco77 Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 FFS! I rate Brown tbh, but if we have all that money left in the SC after little Chris left..... Why not get someone that really changes games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RabbitRhinoovOZ Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Can't believe any Warrington supporter would be sour on this signing, Brown is a vast improvement on Sandow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave T Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Id actually be ok with this. Some of his passing is class and he would fit into our style of an expansive game. Between Brown, Gidley, Patton and Ratchford i think we have a good halfback range tgere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Toppy Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Wire must have more money than sense. Brown agreed personal terms with Saints last year on a huge contract but Widnes refused to budge on their big transfer fee, so the deal collapsed. He'll be 33 next year, has a poor injury record throughout his career and has maybe only a couple of years left in him at this level. I can't see the point in them paying a big transfer fee and taking up such a big part of their SC on a player like this. Especially when Gidley is such a similar player and they have Patton ready.

Lowdesert Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Good player and a good move for Wire and Brown, unless Widnes know something Warrington don't. He will fit in, which this is more often neglected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longboard Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Brown's a good player and likely to offer fewer management challenges than Sandow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Browny Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 I would be pretty happy with this signing if it came about. I can confirm 30+ less sales for Scotland vs Italy at Workington, after this afternoons test purchase for the Tonga match, £7.50 is extremely reasonable, however a £2.50 'delivery' fee for a walk in purchase is beyond taking the mickey, good luck with that, it's cheaper on the telly.

Wollo Wollo Wayoo Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 I would be pretty happy with this signing if it came about.

gordontrevor Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 First it was Williams (wigan) and now Brown(widnes), strange since both are naturally talented standoffs. Warrington is faced with same problem we have at wigan, a natural scrum halve. Even more strange is that Warrington was the best attacking team in superleague (2016), a delight to watch, but fragile in defence, and once again mentally lacking. surely defence would come top of the agenda, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exiled Wiganer Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 "according to" "mole" "twitter"... I saw Brett Kenny filling his car up on the A49 the other day.
