Chris Bridge

Asotasi must be getting a huge wage if they are trying to offload players.

Surprised Salford haven't been linked with him.

Long has left Wigan with immediate effect, sign him up coaching?

If you have read the press release from Wigan you would not be saying the same thing.

I hope we stay well clear of Long!

Haven't seen a press release just read it on sky news.

Briers - would be great, but he may be on a big wage.
Wood - great prop for wire this season, monster in attack and defence.

The club have tried to be 'nice' about the situation but their reasons seem pretty clear.....

mmm thanks daveyz, seems his face didnt fit, dont think it is much to do with long as a person though by reading that but you never know.

I'd take briers all day long.
hope its him and if he could bring riley with him even better.

I'd ne happy with that, or Wood

Be happy then

Does anybody actually know who we are being linked with or is all we know, an experienced Warrington player?

I know,he hasn't been mentioned on this thread yet

Why the secrecy?!

I hate mixed signals!!

1 Brett Hodgson -FB 2 Chris Riley - WG 3 Chris Bridge -CE, SO 4 Ryan Atkins -CE 5 Joel Monaghan - WG 6 Lee Briers (vc) -SO 7 Richie Myler -SH 8 Adrian Morley (c) - PR, SR 9 Michael Monaghan - HK, SH 10 Garreth Carvell - PR 11 Trent Waterhouse - SR 12 Ben Westwood - SR 13 Ben Harrison -LF, PR

14 Mickey Higham - HK 15 Simon Grix -LF, SO 16 Paul Wood -PR 17 Mike Cooper - PR 18 Chris Hill - PR 19 Stefan Ratchford - CE, SO 20 Rhys Evans -CE 21 Tyrone McCarthy - LF 22 Rhys
Williams - WG 23 Gareth O'Brien - SH 24 Ben Currie -SR 25 26 James Laithwaite -

So who is it just have mentioned them now haha

Tyrone McCarthy is up for grabs, But wouldn't say he is very experienced. They tried sending him to Cas on loan this season, But Danny Orr didn't pick him

Perhaps it's Carvell

Rumours circulating are saying we have signed George (most of us knew) and Hodgson! - Really hope not, would mean the end for BK!

Mat, Roger can you shed any light??

Hello Davey,I have heard we have signed Brett Hodgson and Luke George,also talking to Thomas Bosc but Catalan are reluctant to let him go,don't know if he's out of contract

I thought Franny came out in the paper the other week saying he wasn't interested in Bosc, or that he wasn't on his radar. Something to that effect anyway.

As for the Wire player, I'd have been happy to see Higham or M. Monaghan (both OOC) brought in with the rumours of Heath's departure, but on the other side I want to see Adam O'Brien bled in a little more. Having signed Diskin again (

hmmm) I can't imagine if we brought in another Hooker we'd see much of Adam.

I can't see why we'd bring in Hodgson if BK had chosen to stay. Or is that just a rumour I heard somewhere? I know it's not been in't paper.

Apparently BK told a newspaper that he was staying @ Bulls, and he loved the club (was it the League Express?)

But if we are signing Hodgson, why would we need 2 import, high earning fullbacks?

I have seen a bit of Hodgson this year, he's safe in defence, but i think his go-forward is declining. Just for the players ages, I would prefer us to keep BK.

I also cant see the reasoning for siging Hodgson, if BK is staying, if we lose him id rather see Kear or foster as FB then us go looking for an overseas winger or centre.

Agree with sombrero, higham or monaghan would be good additions but with disko staying there is no need for them, think Heath may be on the way out, i hope not he is a character who i think takes the club forward.

Pretty sure Bosc is OOC but dont think Catalan have sufficiant cover at 6/7 similar to us.

Would Bosc be a squad player as Gale/Sammut are our starting 6/7 IMO, long as they can gel on-field.

Need to sign Sammut up for as long as pos i think.

If we have signed Brett Hodgson, perhaps Cummins intends to use Kearney as a half-back next season, with Danny Addy possibly on his way to Wakefield.

This would also mean that there wouldn't be much point signing Bosc.
