Solomone Kata and Tuimola Lololea are likely to be the first choice centre pairing for the Warriors this year. Is Hurrell worth consideration?- He has previously been given permission to negotiate with other clubs and if BA could get him fit and keep his mind on the job, he could be a good pick up especially if the Warriors paid part of his salary

He's fast, and strong.
His defence isn't too crash hot though, and if The Warriors are looking to offload him it probably has something to do with discipline or attitude.
I certainly wouldn't slit my wrists if we signed him - but I can't see it happening.
Yep, great attacker when he gives a fuck, but even then his defence is poor.
It's very hard to lure players from NZ once they've established themselves in the NYC let alone first grade, it would take a lot of money to get him across.
Hurrell will start for the Warriors, I reckon.
RTS, Kata, Hurrell, Lolohea & Vatuvei would be the back-line I'd go with for them.
But yes, if he ever became available and we needed a centre, I'd like to see the club make a play for him. I rate Hurrell and he's ripping in this off-season to steel himself for the season ahead .
And Jono Wright.
If Ayshford plays anywhere, it is at centre, which would see Lolohea move to five-eighth - a position he's more than capable of playing.
But that then moves Leuluai to hooker, which he is adept at also.
A lot of interesting options there for the Warriors but McFadden would be crazy to not play Hurrell, especially as reports suggest he's fitter than ever and determined to maintain a regular spot in the centres.
I'd gladly take him at the Eels if the opportunity ever became available, Johnny.
