| The jury was out on a certain Mr Morley for a while. Seems a long, long time ago now though.
HOPEFULLY... in 12 months I can add Richie Myler's name to this thread

| Quote Wirefan="Wirefan"Many times in the past, we have signed a player and the reaction has been underwhelming, and we fans even criticise certain players before they they play for the club.
However, on many occasions these players often go on to surpass expectations and become a big sucess, thus making people look a bit stupid along the way.
So, who has made you eat your words over the years?
Me - Ben Westwood. When he signed from Wakefield as a centre. For me looked a pile of poop on first showings for both Wakefield and us. Couldn't catch a cold and never seemed to run his weight. Add to that his tendency to lie on in the tackle made him a bit of a penalty machine too. I remember commenting at the time to a mate that I thought he would be gone within a year.
Now, he's probably my favourite Warrington player.'"
ben's signing along with nat woods may have had something to do with weakening other teams squads who were facing possible relegation alongside us,both were inspired signings,one in the short term and one for the duration,neither made me want to eat my words,westwood wasn't that bad in his first year either.

| Louis Anderson, just thought he was after a brwal constantly when we first signed him. Now I think he is one of our best and most consitent players and a try-machine last season!

| Angelina Jolie. Thought she'd be a real livewire but she's actually quite dull.

Forgot about him. Was he the one who had stuff chucked at him when he was out with his family?? Bad times that if it was him, well out of order.

| I saw Leikvoll and Rauhihi turn out for us for a few years, approx 80 games each IIRC, and for about 6 of those, they made me eat my words ......

| Chris Riley. i did not think he was good enough for Warrington, but i have been made to eat three courses of words.
He has proven me and a lot of people wrong - but in this case i'm made up, as Chris is the sort of player we need at wire.
i always thought Monas and The King were class- andlets say - i had many of heated argument about this with some wire fans. So i'm glad that all the people who said they were rubbish ate their words- 4 courses of course!
Dont know about 'rocket Rodwell ' though more like sparkler.

Could well have been. Didn't the same thing happen to Daryl van de Velde as well just before he left in '01?
