Yeah read about him on the Sydney Morning Herald website. They described him as a Billy Slater clone! If he's half as good i'll be happy.

Hope the lad continues to develope and if he really is that special McGuire can tempt him to leave Melbourne for Sunny Wigan!

Already declared his loyalty to england and GB..there loving him in aussie

made me laugh, apparently he packed two left boots and needed a police escort home to get the the right boot. priceless, Biggest game of the season and he packs two left boots

Surely him coming back to Wigan would see rumours of his old lifestyle surface after not to long, but would he strengthen the area especially if Bailey went, perhaps.

Of course, i can see the logic in getting rid of our international centre, one of the most creative players we have, who we payed 100k transfer fee for and who hasnt even been here for a full year, for [ianother[/i second row.

Exactly how i'm seeing it..

I just cant

If that transfer did go through, what would everyones thoughts be on signing Danny Tickle back?

I think if he was to come back to Wigan, Gleeson wouldnt be going the other way - it would just be a straight deal. Although I cant see either happening.

No, no, no, no, no.

What can Tickle do that Farrell, Mossop, Davies, Hansen, Tomkins..... can't do other than kick? We already have one of the best kickers around!

Get rid of Bailey for Tickle, one player the model pro who the lads look up to or Danny Tickle?

we need a prop, plain and simply, people say we need a 7, i wouldnt like a 7 who would start id like a back up player who could come in if we have an injury to one of the halves. i could see leuluai improving if we are playing with a dominant pack, we have one of the best back rows in the league and our talent in the back row is awesome. then we look at the front row, we have very two good young props in ocarroll and prescott, stuart fielden who is not the same player and coley who is expected to play the role of the pack leader. if we dont get a prop i would seriously bulk bailey up and move him up to prop, get him to put about 2 stone on. we need someone who can lead our pack into submission of the other teams pack, some absolute brutal beast. god i wish craig smith was 10 years younger!

Dream on!

I wish Kelvin Skerrett wa 20 years younger!

Farrell for me.

Not only could he do the hard work of a prop but he had the skills to match any other player in SL.

Add to that he could dish it out if he needed to as well he’d be the perfect player for us now.

What an asset he’d be to us.

Scott Logan still big, and still playing. Would you have him back?

It was discussed a few pages back IIRC. Cruncher said something which I totally agree with, something like - if he can't honour a 2 year contract for being homesick he has no business playing SL and we shouldn't want a player like that.

FWIW I'd love a Scott Logan type prop.

Not replacing him set us back big time.

Wish we would announce a signing or two tomorrow.

We really need a prop

I'm with you KN , I hope its not just a coaching announcement tomorrow.

It will only be a coaching announcement.

It seems very unlikely that we will have any new signings going into next season.

Bailey and Carmont will extend their contracts.

Three props will be off contract at the end of 2010, all of whom will probably leave, giving us plenty of chance to restructure the pack.

Hopefully in 2011 we will have three new props.

Then I think you're probably expecting too much.

What I do anticipate though, is the new man assessing our needs over the close-season, and then drawing up his own list of possible new recruits.
