Has he signed for you?

No.

As good as pal. Couple more days though.

Urgh!

But hes a full back? Get him on the wing with hall as his centre

No thanks. Need a quality experienced centre.

Before i came on here i got told we signing tansey i laughed now i worried i was told it done deal and he here for full back and locke at 6

In no way saying it true

Tansey's just a fat Craig Hall, only doesn't knock on as much.

Good god i hope not. As good as the Locke signing is this would temper it massively.

Locke is one of the best full backs in the world when fit. Sio should be hooker off the bench to interchange with McShane with Godinet remaining at 6 where he has impressed.

Just announced that he's left Cas & signed for you

From Locke to Tansey. Urgh!

Not sure where he will play.

He did a few stints for Cas in he halves & some on the wing. Is he better than anything you've already got?

Probably better than Lyne and Arundel.

Not in the halves. Wing or centre is the question mark.
Probably fullback next season

Could Tansey have been signed as he went to the Roosters and BS may have seen something?
Don't know if Tansey was on his way out as BS was on his way in at the Roosters?

Is it controversial to say this is a decent signing? He's not a world-beater, but he certainly has ability and his utility value will be useful going into the 8's.

I'd stick him on the wing or centre right now, replacing either Arundel or Riley - he'd almost certainly be better than both.

Back down to earth with a bump. Adequate fullback but surely Locke will be there? No better than what we already have in the other positions imho.

Enjoy, he won't be missed. ask him to take the lead out of his boots before he runs out for you.

I agree. I'm sure people are swayed because he is at Cas and has had some trouble off field before but as a rugby player he is an elusive and fast runner.
He'll improve us.

Possibly what most would class as a typical Wakefield signing. Been around a bit, had a few clubs, finds his home at Wakey. Lets hope anyhow.

As i stated previously, the more we can get in that are not in the same mind set as the current bunch, the better. Losing becomes a habit and all that.

No better than what we have but not on his ar$e mentally is classed an improvement for me.

Having time to think if he keeps Hall and Miller out this is a half decent signing. Still seems like a sideways signing though.

Nothing at all to do with the Cas thing and everything to do with what he does on the field. If we hadn't just signed Locke i could see the merit as he is ok there but having done so i see nowhere where he will improve us. He has no kicking game for the halves and his defence is too poor for the threequarters. He'll offer cover in case of another injury crisis but with Miller and Hall other fb options if Locke as to be injured, Johnstone, Riley and Owen going for two wing spots (plus Hall if needed) and Arundal, Lyne, Hall & Ryan options in the centre then he would be way down the pecking order there for me as i don't think he is better than any of those options. Still just my opinion.

Personally i'd rather the money have gone on an out and out godd quality centre to replace Collis or a halfback with a decent kicking game. For me these are the glaring deficiencies in our game.
