Clearly we know our new forum member looms in on our little play ground, so where does he need to look to spend his hard earned?
Some bulk up front and some nowse to direct us round the pitch, but who are we going to be able to get in at this point of the season and in our precarious situation?

Hickey is supposed to be signed up from what some have said. Then I think we have to look at loan players such as O'Carroll/Prescott at Wigan one of whom is unlikely to get a lot of game time this year unless they get injuries. Not sure where we can get a half back from who can control the game though

Halves or quality halves are rare, but look at sammut, if your prepared to dig deep enough and take a punt, who knows?

if Millard goes does Hickey arrive sooner?

Gareth Moore.

Thats fine if they turn out to be any good, otherwise we just get accused of bringing over second rate Aussies and ignoring young British players.

Are you having a laugh

Shopping list thread, not a knock the Cas ground thread, it stays that way

Thats the rumour, don't know whether its right or not

and to be fair we had the only true quality british scrum half at the club a year ago.............!

does my head in this britfest amongst some of our fans, most NRL reserves are better than SL standard, and at this point we need results, or no fans.....no club, new owner or not, anyone find that hard to comprehend???

Yeah and we've managed to find very few over the years, we've signed some real second rate dross and wasted oooooodles of cash doing so.

If we could find a Sammut then fair enough.

The problem with overseas players is that you can be waiting months for the visas to be sorted unless that has been going on in the background and if they aint being playing then they are going to take a few weeks at least to be ready for SL.

Why couldn't we have found him last year, when he was available and we'd just sold the best British SH in SL??

Like chapster said the reserve nrl standard is still higher than most British or certainly available British halves.
Not sure where sammut played his rugby, in the reserves? Or lower leagues? Certainly not saying we shouldn't look at British but weve got to get real and realise we need someone, and smartish.

Because we did not have any money maybe.

Cos Kear though Cooke was the answer!!

Al we found the money to sign Cooke and Leano

me!
me!
i know!!
it was something to do with a deal done for an ex hull and hkr player


who now is available, but if anyone goes and gets him, im supporting dewsbury!

So we sign another Jeffries then, understand the idea of getting someone special to sparks us but they are few and far between and who would want to come to old Wakey.

And i won't agree with Chappy on principle

Amen to that.

Fair point alan, and well made!

Hypocrite!!!

Depends on the winds direction.

That's the level of consistency you can only find on RLFANS!!!

Or from referees!
