Warrington Wolves • Powell interview

Good interview with Daryl Powell online today. Seemed very upbeat about his move to the area and appeared really chuffed with the welcome he has received from the local public.

Revealed that he has spent the last few days meeting all the players individually, to discuss targets and expectations and indicated that he is happy with the players at his disposal.

Most crucially, he was very positive about wanting the side to play an entertaining brand of RL and, with what must be music to the board's ears, wants a style of play that will bring more supporters through the turnstiles, stating he would love to be playing in front of a full, vibrant stadium.

Also, a nice little section at the end when he was questioned about being perceived as miserable - was more than happy to laugh at himself and his reputation and pretty much admitted that the 'miserable' persona was simply his game face and he was a much more jovial chap away from matchplay.

Overall, though just a short interview, he came across well and I hope his positivity isn't a shortlived thing and that he can transfer some of it to the squad. I really got the feeling that the players will find working and training under him a bit more enjoyable than under Price.
