He’s apparently available. Would he be worth a space

Would but unfortunately does have a few on field problems and way out of our price range, we cannot look to compete against Featherstone.

We are after a centre according to reports.

It’s a risk and one that could be an absolute belter or a shocker.

Why can't we compete with Featherstone?

I guess it depends whether Willie thinks he can keep him under control. And whether he wants a new start.

Edit: I now realise Fev are saying they are making a bid. Were you making a funny?

Aussie pundit Braith Anasta : “He does some stupid things and he doesn’t need to. It’s been his achilles heel his whole career he just can’t control his temperament"

Not worth the risk. IMHO

On his day he's one of the best but I think we can probably get someone more suitable for the money.
But I wouldn't say no.

Don’t bite he’s after an argument just so he can complain everyone is picking on him.

Truth is we have a slot to fill. One that we can chuck some money at even if not a fortune but why rush.

It won’t add to season ticket sales and it won’t add to any feel good factor because most Trinity fans are incapable of such an emotion, so why not wait till the last moment possible and sign the player when the terms most suit us.

I still think we will use the quota spot for a forward but WP is a nee coach so best not to second guess. Other than to say WP isn’t the sort to panic.

Sounds like our perfect pick up!!!

Sounds like he has a weight issue, we are not the club for those players in my opinion. I honestly believe that if you can't be fit in the NRL then you have even less chance in SL.

You can equally say that having a weight problem in NRL doesn't mean you have one here.
He's done alright in NRL. He's hardly being discarded.

Not really my point. Discipline and sports science in the NRL are at a higher standard, The Aussie climate is also more conducive for fitness. I feel it's a risk for a player with such a weakness to drop down to SL.

Could be a brilliant signing but Hickey and Pauli Pauli and dare I say big Dave stick out as players who have struggled.

I don't mind risks and I's accept this one but it is a worry.

Absolutely you should stay away.

The guy is an absolute car wreck. Has consistently blamed everyone bar himself for all his failings.

Not sure why this would concern you with your outlook on our club in the past Steph, Lebron, as108, Mr rebellion.

He really does like to help us out doesn't he.

Definitely worth signing then.

Unplayable/unstoppable on his day in the NRL so would light super league up IMO if he can be controlled.Super talented but with issues , would I have him at belle vue , in a heart beat . Tim smith had issues but on his day he was head and shoulders above his counterparts . Getting giddy just the thought of him running out for us .

The lads won Dally M centre of the year twice, he’d be an incredible signing for any SL team. He’s obviously got his off field issues, but realistically what prime NRL player is coming to SL now without issues etc.

Signed for Fev

And we saw how that ended up with Tim Smith.

Blimey, doesn't matter how you view it that's a big signing for Fev and well done to them. If they can keep him under control and fit he will rampage in that league.

One thing that amused me though, he fell out with his last coach because he always blamed the players, in which case I'm not sure he's picked his new coach wisely

Seem to be putting a decent squad together now they've signed that Jesse wotsit from Cas as well, think they'll give Leigh a good run for their money this coming season.

No,

Exactly

Yes but we witnessed a lot of good on the pitch before things turned sour for whatever reason.

I have no reason to doubt what I’ve been told about him and there is a good reason why no NRL or SL club would touch him.

Wouldn’t want him anywhere near Trinity despite his ability.
