Yeah, just a few days ago.

But Leigh would still be entitled to a transfer fee. So if it were Brierley then it would have made more sense to sign him before he signed for Leigh.

I'm not suggesting its him that Saints have made a move for, more just hypothosising.

I don't think I've ever seen Rogues post something that doesn't include the words 'Wigan', 'U19s' or 'Hampshire' at some point.

You cant possibly know that. He may have a clause that allows him to leave for nothing to a SL side if he chooses. He may have turned down Cas because he didnt want to travel or relocate and the contract extension could be to keep him out of the hands of another team in the same division. I am of course speculating but thats all any of us can do

| The encouraging thing in all this is that Big Mac has openly admitted we are in the market for a 6, which says that the club as a whole have given a big thumbs down to Hohaia playing in the halves. Thank sweet baby Jesus for that.

The words I would be looking for is a 'Quality proven 6' . Like you say though at least we are acknowledging we have a problem

| Having accepted the Chairman's statement that we are not signing Timid Tim and that we need a stand off, this is what we have known since Leon Pryce left the club.
The fact is that we have not got one ( but we have Wilkin at 6) and it again looks like we won't get one of top quality. By the way, EM's performance on Boots n' All was so very predictable that he needn't have bothered

We will probably end up with Foran.

| I knew it was too good to be true. Somebody with a wicked side step and pace at Saints ? Never in a million years.
Looks like were stuck with both Laffranchi and Hohiah for next year aswell.

We don't know that. McManus can't exactly come out and admit we're courting him if the departure of one of the terrible trio hasn't been sorted.

Well that didn't work. Go to Tony Puletua's twitter feed, Someone asks him if Moltzen will be a good signing for the club and he replies yes.

| I think it was more of a case of TP saying he would be a good signing, rather than he is a good signing.
Could be wrong though.

We've loaned O'Brien to stop him playing 6, we've loaned Howarth to stop him playing 9 and he's (by my reckoning) 5th choice full back.
Plenty of money sloshing about in the NRL, where he'll still have a decent rep. Why would he stay?
He's not quite old enough for this to be his last contract, so to just put his feet up would crucify his career?

I agree.
From what I've heard, we are not in for him.
