I heard it was a flying winger by the name of Chris Packett

You may think that, I couldn't possibly comment......

The lad from Cumbria is a second rower ,Millward also says he is talking to 4 players 1 being Littler but he won't say who the other 3 are as there is competition from other clubs ,1 player is a front rower and 1 a winger and he is hoping to announce all 4 next week . He also says that he will be taking another 4 players on dual contract and the clubs are Wire and STs and 1 player was with us last year but he can't say who they are yet until their clubs inform them and that won't be until until November

that sounds very much like a threat to me but in typical steward fashion hiding behind a username have a word with the bosses aye I thought you were the boss or do you just think you are

Problem is, it's a threat mate. Shouldn't be happening.

Back to topic.



All this sounds brilliant to me, hope Mitchells the returning dual although I think he's too old now. Big press release and season ticket promo to follow along with shirt lauch. Bombard the Leigh public.

Last season we got stuck with having three forwards as duels due to the injuries we got to Bibey and Nash, even tho they were good lads i think a back a half back come hooker and 2 forwards is a good spread to take proper advantage of the system (if you can get em of course!)

I believe the prop and winger are aussies!

8 new players to add to what we have makes us look good for next season imo.

i dont think we'll entertain the half back idea on a dual contract, we already have robbie, duffy and ridyard who can play there. Also the duals can be called back at any stage so it could back fire on us. i would however look for a winger/centre or prop

A half back is unlikely to be released on dual if they are anywhere near first team so if we got one they would more than likely to stay with us if you se what i meen?

Yes I do. Good point, thankyou. Come again

I wouldn't have duals at all but I imagine that will be a financial decision rather than anything else. Dont feel it worked well last season after 3 of the 4 broke into the SL squads regularly they didn't look nearly as good or interested when playing for us.

Whatever Ian does I'm sure it'll be in the best interests of the club.

Wahey - Bill's back!!!!

Welcome back Bill

Thankyou kind sir. Whilst I was away I saw a programme on the plight of the tigers, if you ever get the chance to crossbow one please don't. They will go extinct, do a swivel and shoot a bison, no one cares about them.

That seems a bit harsh on Emmitt. Don't think he ever gave less than 100% or had a bad game for us.

JPB john paul brocklebank its not him its peter bewsher

it says in the local rag that its a forward we're after.
isn't bewsher a winger?

Also after a winger

i know we're after a winger but the lad from egremont is suppose to be a forward isn't he? JPB is a forward.

Heard we are looking at a young amature lad from Fax called Gaz Jones. He plays prop and is a similar type of player to Sam Burgess.

This Bewsher is a second row there is another Bewsher who plays wing/

just had another look,sorted now

I have it on good authority -

Winger - Chris Packett
Prop - Toby Jugg (Aussie recommended by Criag Teitzel)
2nd row - Hugh Janus (Blackpool Panthers reserve)
Stall 6 - Stuart Littler

In Journal it says the winger has speed

And does it say the prop's a big 'un?

Yes, he's just been arrested
