So as we all know better than King John, Beans and Ted put together with the limited resources we have who would you go for?

IMO we need to be looking at people like:

Luke Burgess- Leeds
Ben Cooper- Wire
McNally- Shudds
Ratchford- Salford
Ainscough- Wigan

Cooper went well at Cas, Burgess i would have no problem, Ratchford can't make my mind up but we could give him a shot. McNally no thanks.

Ainscough

lol Brad Drew lol

i think ratchford is a realistic target and has something different about him, burgess yes please, rest no ta or unrealistic!

Drew would be a good call.

actually if hes fit its not a bad call at all, bring back stos and drew!

I reckon it is a good bet cos he aint gonna get any time at Shudds

McNally is a great prospect. Hence being snapped up by Shudds.
But will have at least 2 years to wait IMO. We should get in there now, season long loan if nothing else.

Cooper did very well at Cas, Burgess isn't in the first 19 at Leeds so is another talent we should be sniffing round.

Yep.

thinking about it have we enquired if theres any players need development from say brisbane broncos academy where mr PW is going?

rangi chase from cas if the rumoured fall outs are true?

If we thought Drew were even remotely interested in doing a job for us, I'm sure we would have asked for him as part of the Brough transfer. So either we don't think he can any more, or he doesn't want to, or both. Ratchford would be the one I'd target, if he's fallen out of favour at Salford. I still have the feeling we'd end up with a similar partnership to BJ and Rooney if we got him, but It'd be better than the options we have at the moment.

Drew i reckon, but you seem to be in the know, I am sure Brad was still injured when the deal was being done, well he is perm injured but hey ho...mayb they thought let's see how Sam does as Drew aint going anywhere

When brough went we didn't have an overseas spot available

Yep, if he can stay of the pop.

Wrong tree there, mate. I just call it how I see it.

True and was injured at the time, he's played in the 20's since and went ofF limping so maybe he's washed up, but i have no doubt if he was fit he'd do a job.

well hell be ok at our club then alan, its temperence central!

right ive decided i want chase and Sausage please!

Pot of tea, bread and butter.

I would be happy with that but its Wakey so don't build your hopes up.

Cant we do a ripping yarns "barnstoneworth united" job and go and ask the bloody march brothers to play? Just for one week even, they would show the rest of the team what its like to give a toss!

by the way best sport comedy episode ever but it does so remind me of watching WTRLFC!

He's said all along he wanted to go back to Huddersfield. Wouldn't be my choice, but hell, someone's got to live there. Didn't think about the quota situation, tbh, but even if we had the space, if it were up to me, I'd look elsewhere.

Short term fix if he's fit, knows the players and coaches, knows how to get to the try line, not ideal because of his age but unless they have someone else lined up. Of course he may not want to or be allowed to.

He is and allows people like Mick robinson to look for someone for next season, you can not argue that the Tronc acquisition would have been a good one, had it not have been for his mrs

Can't find fault with that, and thats a first

We didn't really get that much use out of him in his last season with us. Huddersfield haven't seen a fat lot out of him this season, if anything at all. He'd fix nowt for me, mate. If we could get a non-quota player to fill the position, we'd have a few more options for a replacement prop too (though I'd rather see us go home grown there too, and save the quota place for a 3/4 / centre, where the Aussies are streets ahead of us).
