| Quote ="Or thane"Heard He's Turned down Huddersfield as we've offered him a 2 year deal, so i hope that's true.
Forward pack next year is looking like Hill, Cooper, Philbin, Mulhern, Bullock, Butler, Doro and Harrison at the end of the year or 2023. not awe inspiring but not the worst pack in the world.
As for Minikin he's dependable with a bit of skill and speed thrown in so as a back up we could do worse.
Someone said this signing shows Powell has no confidence which is a daft comment in general about powell, but this signing just indicates powell knows what Minikin is all about and how to coach him.
Same with Holmes and Mata'utia, we know exactly what we are getting and i'm happy with them, so lets give Minikin a chance as he could do very well for us?'"
This ^^^^
Great news about Hill if that's confirmed. I'm not sure about 2 years but we wouldn't have got better (for next season anyway) IMO. I'm happy with all the signings so far, I hope a few more are announced and I would like to see Matty Ashton retained as well personally. I think he's worth another year at least, it's a bit risky to go much longer longer than that with his injury record though really, 2 years max. |

The trend appears to be that the announcement takes place after weve played their current team. So, expect something formal on Monday. |

| Quote ="St Helens Wolf"In a salary capped sport, and with a relatively small talent pool from which to draw, I think that Minikin would be a good fit. With the players that we already have on marquee or decent money, plus the need to either retain or replace Hill, then we have to scale back our expectations in other positions. '"
I agree with this. We have what I assume are three big earners - Clark, Widdop, Williams. I imagine the next level are Ratchford, King (?), Charnley, Hill, Cooper, Currie. Even with the marquee exemption, we can't have many more at that level, so players like Minikin will always need recruiting. Some will work out, some won't. |

I think we've enough competition/cover in the squad without Minikin.
Maybe Ashton won't stay.
I hope he does as he IS fast.
Mamo was said to be very fast, but couldn't catch Percival.

well to be fair to him, he had ratch and someone else in front, blocking him, i said at the time, they should have got out the way and let him burn him down, not very smart play, and poorer tackling |
