Jamie Soward signs for London for rest of season!


I hope he's not making his debut on Sunday?


Quality stand off 5/8 with a decent kicking game.


Type of player we should be trying to sign

Not really hes only available to the end of the season and then hes back in Aus, should have left him there in my opinion, lots of lads over here could have been given some game time.

My point being we need a quality stand off with a kicking game!
In the same mold as Soward!!
I don't care where he comes from???
Sowards signed for Penrith 2014!

Why don't London just get a kid from their development pool to play in the halves....oh.....wait.....

He's awaiting Visa clearance so its unlikely he will be in England for the game on Sunday.

Don't clubs usually bring the player over and let them hang around in France till their visa comes through? They can be in England on the same day as the visa is granted.

Pointless signing imo, nice holiday for him though and a chance to earn a bit of spend.

Waste of money for London.... Develop a young player for the rest of the season.

Soward won't make Penrith first grade next season on a regular basis on the seasons performances... his form is awful and hs attitude is worse.

Will be interesting to see if he can put a few more bums on seats.

That would be a miricle of biblical proportions. Moses ? Jesus ? Soward ?

Surely with his bottomless pit of cash this could/should have been the kind of signing Dr Koukash/Salford should have been making?? Nevermind calling out all the big named players under contract ie Tomkins, Chase, Morley, Ratchford etc This is actually someone they could have signed!!!

Unless that is of course, they have written off this season with a view to starting a complete fresh at the start of next?

He was announced that he had signed for Penrith on a 4 or 5 year deal half way through the season

Yeah i know, but you would have thought with the amount of money they apparently have to throw around, they would be at the front for anybody of a decent level looking for a club be it short term or long??

How much of his wages will the RFL be paying em I wonder

With the RFL footing the bill

+Free passes to all World Cup games

What makes you say that?

Who else is daft enough to foot the bill????????

The London owner? I'm one of the Rfl's biggest critics but I can't see for a minute that they'll be putting anything into this contract!

I can't see him making much difference to their season - he's been in poor form and by all accounts, has a terrible attitude.

Bit of a jolly for Soward I reckon, but he won't do for them what Gower did.

He will kick us to death if he plays Sunday?


Might even get the Broncos to Wembley picking up the Lance Todd


What price on that??

Do London have no Development Scheme? Thought that was part of the new Licensing?

yeah it's purely a holiday - can't see past that.

To be fair it's the same for Gower - had a few years in Italy, a couple in France... oh look, he's siged for London!

Will be interesting to hear what Soward has to say - do you think he'll come out with the usuasl bullbab "well I spoke to london and I liked what theyre trying to achieve... they've got great prospects... it was the right move for me..."

...or will he just be honest

Could say much the same about us.

Why don't you compare the number of local kids playing for London this year with that of Wakefield?... moron.

Go on then, enlighten us!
