Warrington new signing Matty Ashton is “like a Ferrari”

Warrington's newcomer Matty Ashton is like a Ferrari, according to his coach Steve Price. The 21-year-old moved to the Wolves on a two-year deal from Championship side Swinton earlier in the off-season. Ashton scored 30 tries for the Lions last year and has impressed Warrington’s coaching staff with his sheer pace in pre-season. Speaking of his side's newcomer, Price said: “I didn’t really appreciate his speed and wheels and how fast he can get across the ground in the Championship. “But I certainly appreciate how he moves now. He’s an exciting machine and he is like a Ferrari.” Price is also happy with the strength in depth that the Wolves have got this year but is open to bringing a new face in. He added: “Samy Kibula has lost 15 kilos since when he first arrived and Keanan Brand has got a really strong core. “We are doing things differently than what we have done in the past, so we’ve got a good mixture of youth and experience. It is a matter of everyone trying to fit in to the starting 17 come round one against Wigan. “I’m really happy with our squad at the moment and we’ve got a really good blend of youth and experience. “There are players who have played at the highest level but if the right player came up then I’d definitely look at it.” Source- Love Rugby League
