Who?

I really hope you're joking, but if not its a source / sauce joke

Was thinking same. Who?

A Wigan fan(casual fan i presumed) sat behind me against Bradford was amazed that Meli had signed for the Bulls as he hadn't heard anything about it!


It was Ricky Sherriffe.

Gasnier could be up for grabs

dont think he would come to sl but would think leeds would be the only team that would have enough cash to get him here and fit him in to the cap

we have room for a top class centre and we always have space for a mid season signing if needs, plus no eastwood wages.

but its still not gonna happen. i honestly thought maybe lyon next season for leeds but i guess if saints have the cap space you will get him.

Meli is a Brian Noble kind of player .. hmm maybe we should offer to swap him for Ainscough

Did you hear his interview the other week?
People call Scully for saying "y-know" all the time, but this lad (all be it young) couldn't string a sentence together.

good hard working winger though.

Based on his interview, I don't think so. He would be an embarrasment to the club, he can't string two words together. Imagine him being on Junior Mastermind.

Leave the lad alone.

He's attending the Gareth Hock elocution school.

He's got no chance then.

Looks like this is getting to all the players.

Do you just repeat what other posters say ?

And? hes a rugby player, not some scientist.

I think he came across well when being interviewed. So what if you couldnt understand the wigan dialect. i cant really understand the cheap, plastic scouse, St Helens dialect, but doesnt mean I think everyone from St helens is thick. What he did show was bags of enthusiasm and you could tell he was proud as punch at representing his club.

hes a young lad with no media training. Look at people like Sculthorpe who is supposed to be media savvy yet comes across very poorly.

I don't care what the lad sounds like, i would have him over meli any day, his language skills are of no importance. He could be the Forrest Gump of superleague

as long as he can catch and run who cares?

that doesnt sound good - Potter obviously isnt happy, and neither are some of the other players. Clearly its Meli's fault that he isnt here, and it cant be good for team harmony if he ever arrives.





I highly doubt it Mick.

Same

I'd love to see Ainscough in the Red V and I dont care if he's thick as 2 short planks lol

Why would you imagine him on Junior Mastermind he is a pro rugby player didnt realise you needed a degree to play it.

“It is possible he is working hard back in New Zealand – there is an element of trust here and hopefully he is doing the right thing for himself and the team and he arrives in a healthy state if he gets his visa."

It sounds alot like saints don't have a clue when this will be resolved. If we are paying him i would expect him to be keeping himself trained and if the visa fiasco is his fault we should sack him now. Its his responsibilty! Possibly the laziest man ever!

In the circumstances we are told there is every possibility the club is not paying him during this period.

Who's fault is this, is it meli or is it the club's? If I was Meli and been told I am no longer being paid due to this hicup, and I knew it want my fault, I would of course be making my employer pay me...

Anyways, we have young Tom now, already better than Kevin Penny and Meli put together.

Think this is a fairly strong hint that Potter has no idea whether or not Meli is sticking to the training programmes being sent to him.

All will be revealed!

Unless Potter has someone over there training him, or watching him, then he wouldn't know. Meli doesn't seem the kind of guy to put himself out and do the extra training though.

If there is anyway, Saints should just get shut. It isn't even as if he's a top class player and will be worth waiting for.

Heard a rumour today that saints want to sack meli...

Not sure what for, will try to grill the informant for further details!
