No deadline with when you announce who you have signed.

Players have to be signed before the end of the 'deadline day' limit, however it's up to the clubs when they decide to announce the signing of a player.
Anyway, good signing for us - very skilful player who has big game experience and also has a bit of class. Hopefully we play him at Loose.

Understand that but why wait a week and a half to announce it. Good job your team has names on the back of its shirts eh

Decent player but not sure about the signing. Hasn 't played a game all season and only played 15 last season because of some serious injuries. We need our players to be hitting the ground running and not taking a few games to get up to speed like he surely will do. And did we need another backrower anyway?

It would surprise me but he's a good player. When fit I reckon he'd get into Warrington 17.

Personally I'd stick with what we have though.

At a guess I'd say Warrington wanted the chance to play their semi final first.

So Wakefield decided 11pm on a Sunday evening a week after the deadline was a good time to make the big reveal?

Great signing if you can get him fit but very unusual timing

Apparently there is a chance he might not feature for us until the last few games, the reason we signed him is because If we didn't then we wouldn't of had the opportunity later on thus taking the risk and MC also stating this is a cracking deal for the club so sounds like we aren't losing much if he doesn't. However I hope he does feature.

Why are opposition fans wondering why we've made signings

By the sound of some posters on this thread, it seems like we have gone from 'going down certainties' a couple of months ago.
To 'Oooo, you can't do that, your supposed to go down'.
Jog on and see you in the 8's.

No because it wasn't Wakefield who announced it.18th man put it on twitter.

It sure does doesnt it?

This would be a cracking signing at any other time of the season but still pretty good.

Love sticking your unwanted beak into other clubs business don't you troll?

Didn't Bradford sign someone after the deadline?

Again why another forward. The backs are the weak link. Is this just a signing because it's good value and for the sake of it?

Why are Leigh fans even bothered?

You forgot to mention Ian Shirke

Unless my memory is wrong, I am sure he started out as a centre and played there for Wire. He could possibly play out wide if required and he would certainly stiffen up our defence on the flank.

Still not a specialist back. If we were short on forwards it would be a cracking signing. It seems we just seem to be picking up players because their available and cheap.

Very good signing but most importantly he is a ball playing forward who can crate chances .yes he originally was a centre
.

No. Bradford announced someone after deadline but signing was made and registered before the deadline. Presumably exactly the same as wakey have done.

Perhaps B Smith has seen enough of our back row options and decided that there is a problem there. Probably the lack of enthusiasm when sliding and scrambling to help out the backs.

Thus unfairly giving the impression that the backs are weak ?

Grix is a cracking player - always liked him; if he's match fit for the games that matter, I think he'll add value.

I reckon Brian has threatened his little brother with a Chinese burn if he didn't help us out - good man.

Very good player , after Chris Hill he's the first name on the team sheet for me when fit .
