| Hardly a superstar but still a player worth having in case of injuries.
I'd rather we spent the money on a quality hooker/number 9 though myself

| Are you a Salford fan Mario, a question you've been asked a couple of times but studiously avoided.

I thought he'd be announced now but he hasnt been. Trust me, we've signed Campese he'll just be announced later in the week.

| How are we under the cap and haven't we signed way too many Johnnie Foreigners?
Thought I'd beat the trolls to it.

| I was one of the happy fans when he left, very lazy, doesn't like the hard graft but shines when in the oppositions 20m. Just doesn't do enough for me, has all the attributes to be a star but seems his mental toughness just ain't there.

| Fantastic signing, a really good player. Our back row is looking freakishly strong now with Hauraki, Hock, Hansen and Paterson all no doubt fitting into the 17.
No doubt he'll become a regular at Olivers gym too.

Or bigger, you'd not really want a ruck against them either.
Wonderful addition, option to move into the centres if needed during a game also.
Wonder why he will only join in January though?
You wonder if Griffin or any either of the Walne brothers might go out on loan/dual reg now.

Bradford 2000, Leeds 2007.
Or do you mean Salford?

Paul Anderson
Keiron Cunningham
Jason Cayless
Lee Gilmour
Jon Wilkin
Jason Hooper
Bearing in mind we also had the likes of Graham, Roby and Fa'asavalu coming off the bench, I think that pack would take some beating now we're in the salary cap era. You also need to remember this was in 2006 when the likes of Wilkin, Gilmour, Anderson etc were playing very well.
Bradfords awesome foursome is the stand out pick in the past 15 years from a neutral perspective.

| Did I mention, one game it took him 20 mins to get his first touch of the ball, not great for a forward eh?

It's pointless bringing him over now. Let him have Christmas with the family and bring him over afterwards, he's recently just fought over in Oz so he'll be tip-top condition.
I wouldn't let anyone leave, one thing is for sure with Hansen, Hauraki and Hock they'll all spend some time out of the first team through injury or suspension and you cant expect Puletua and Mozza to be fit for the majority of the season.

Im happy with the signing but I could name a lot better forward packs to be honest. You arent really suggesting that we have the best forward pack in the history of Super League are you?

| You would get more value for money out of him now to be honest. He disappears around June time, you'll see.

It's blatantly obvious the bloke didn't enjoy Hull, however Salford will be totally different proposition for him. It sounds like a little time out of the game has got the fire and appetite back in his stomach. Only a one-year deal too, so hardly a disaster if it doesn't work out.

| That's one monster pack and a few in reserve. Big question is will they all want it enough?

TBF you are right about the 2nd point, 9 overseas players in very disappointing and I would be saying the same if we had that many at my club (personally I feel 7 we have is too many).
I also can't believe there is a fan who is claiming that you have the best pack in SL over the last 15 years, I don't think you have the best pack for next years SL, I'd take Wigans pack over yours anyday of the week, younger, more motivated and not weak at hooker unlike Salford.

| Mentioned it previously when his name was first mentioned but will the Doc maybe bring him over and allow him to play rugby and box?

I think the guy who suggested we have the best pack ever was just a troll. But we do have a good pack. Its not as good as the top 6 teams packs but its impressive for what we're used to.

Fair enough, TBH your pack on paper looks very good, certainly a top 4 pack, still think you are weak at hooker and that is such a key position and might hold you back a bit next season.

| Our pack has good potential but we should know from experience it's all about delivering on the field every week and not just having what looks like an impressive team sheet.

| He was pretty poor for us, (HKR) didn't seem in a good place despite Sandercock being a mentor to him at The Knights.
Seems a bit of a strange signing, I don't wish him any lll though, hope he goes well for you.

| Imo the quality of the league worsens every year so to bring back players like Dobbo Locke Cory is good for super league.
