Offerdahl is a free agent and has got the 3 rd highest tackle busts in RLWC 2013 so if we could afford him may be a good cheap prop replacement for Poore.
Joseph Paulo is a NRL player though with Paramatta and would not be cheap as under contract.

If all we can afford as a 7 is Liam Finn and he wants SL plus Fev will release him then Liam Finn it is and the best of luck to him in the red, white and blue. He was ok for Ireland last week but there pack we're pathetic IMHO.

| Apart from the fact that he's under contract at Fev for next season (how will you afford his transfer fee?), he's got a thriving business and is reluctant to go full time......

Whilst you don't post often at the moment you always have a point and are the best read on this forum. Keep posting, you've even got me posting now.
Yours a former junior player who didn't quite make it, supporter of 44 years, and looking forward to the next season where the underdog that is Wakefield Trinity surprises more than is expected!

I know he is and I didn't meant Paulo - is it Howard?
I note that Offerdahl currently plays for the Connecticut Wildcats - could be a sign?!

I think I read in either the LE or RLW that he was free to move on at the end of the season and was looking to use the WC as a chance to impress a potential SL suitor.

| Finn has been replaced by Moore and has been told to find a club as he is not wanted. There will be no transfer fee but the factor will be whether wakefield can pay him what he currently earns from Fev and his business.....that's where the problem is. If fev are replacing him with someone who has a better kicking game, is much quicker, more prolific and a lot younger what does that tell you.....

| Finn still got year left on his contract at Fev. Apparently he was going to Fax but we wanted him to stay.
We have signed Moore, still got Briggs and kain and Mendeika played stand off for Ireland in WC, So we probably got the half back positions covered if he was to leave.
He has lost a lot of pace and doesn't make the breaks as often, and hes never been the most creative with the ball. His goal kicking is fantastic, but tactical kicking not the best although it did improve 100% this season with the arrival of Sean long as temporary coach.
To be Honest when is was rumored he was going to fax, opinion was pretty divided on whether it was a good or bad thing. Lots would be glad to get rid of him, while he cant do any wrong for others
Personally from what I have seen of Moor I think we have a good replacement should Finn leave

Ok I will try...
I know who Finn is as he used to play reserve grade at Trinity... And he s getting some air time in the world cup coverage. I don't know who the Moore is (other than Richard Moore) who is going to Featherstone...
I was being cryptically clever in not knowing what you are referring to...
I couldn't understand your post in the same way you don't understand mine...

On odd occasions...He signed in the closed season before 2004 season (i wrote a poem based on the captain beaky song which refered to his signing along with Solo and Sid Domic) Rooney and Jeffries were first choice halves ... Then when Rooney got crook.. Gaz Ellis played 5/8th right through to the end of the season.
Don't remember Liam getting too much game time...

| The Gareth Moore who many on here said wasn't good enough for superleague yet has been signed by Fev as he is deemed a better option in the championship than Finn.
For the record Finn made two appearances for us in 2004, one of which was off the bench.

No offence intended! I wasn't aware I was doing that.
I discussed Liam with the other half before seeing your post and that is what we agreed. Its only an opinion!

Hmm you should know who has Moore is then ? As he played 7 for us a couple of seasons back.
I liked Moore good kicking and passing game and was quick just lacked a bit of physicality.
Fining won't offer anything spectacular, he would offer some organisational skills, and a good kicking game.

Sorry mate.. There is not much in the Sydney press about the comings and goings of Batley and Fev... I was already in Australia when he was on the books... Not seeing the players week in, week out, one loses track.
I will try to be less obtuse in the future....
Thanks Sue for the info...
Fir the record the 6 from Samoa and sharks has no club for next year... A very creative you g half back.. Nit gong to try to spell his name...

That's understandable you are in Australia but those who thought Finn played well for us and actually watched him is a much more worrying.

Just realised how difficult spelling with fat fingers on a windows phone is... apologies for my failings.
I have watched Penani playing for the Sharks reserve grade Early season he was understudying Brett Finch... later he took over the role and was instrumental in taking the team to and winning the grand final... very good player... I am stunned he hasnt a club for 2014

This is getting embarrassing for one of us and to give you a clue it is not me. I must try to dumb down my posts to make it easier. When I said "but those" this is a clue I was referring to forum members other than the one in Australia. This is the last time, I would suggest if you are attempting to make me look stupid it's not working well not for one of us.
