Didn't Mick Gledhill say the same last week?

| Quote Superted="Superted"I'd be underwhelmed if so - might just be my opinion, and although he would be a good signing, I'd not call it a TOP TOP signing that would shake up Super League - but my contact could quite easily think Widdop is exactly that - we'll see I suppose.
No he didn't - but it was clear the deal has been done for some time, and if it is of huge magnitude, the club will no doubt have a clear comms strategy and timeline on it.'"
Like you - some time ago - I stated I would be underwhelmed if Widdop was the TOP TOP signing many have speculated on.

By recent SL standards in terms of players signed from the NRL, Widdop would be regarded as top signing.

| Well one set of people must be wrong. Some say Widdop is joining, some say Brierly is joining providing Leigh don't get promoted. No way are we getting both.
Personally can't see the Brierly one happening if it's dependent on Leigh's promotion result. I don't think we'd wait around until Leigh discover their fate to know if we've got a new HB for next year. Good chance Leigh are in the £1m match at the end of the year which doesn't take place until the week before the GF, if Leigh won that then what HB are we going to be able to get by mid-October when everybody worth a damn is signed up?
The Danny Houghton rumour seems to have gone cold?

| brierly came from the horses mouth. he's desperate to join.made two transfer requests to try to force a move. Leeds def enquired about Houghton but it seems to have gone quite. i'd still like him myself. be a good addition.

I could still see the Brierly one happening but I can't see it being dependent on if Leigh fail in promotion. Seems way too risky as it leaves no time to look elsewhere.

Leeds have until end of September to pull out of the deal for brierley if they find anyone else. The deal for him is dependent on promotion for Leigh, there is quite a few Leigh players on these deals with top SL clubs.

Widdop would be a real top signing and great fit for our club.Of course, he would not come with the superstar absolute superstar reputation of a cronk or Thurston but both of them are 31/32 now and on their last legs as far as world class status goes.Widdop is mid 20's with a good decade service to give, with the added bonus of being an excellent kicker to seamlessly replace Sinfield in that department.It would be an awesome signing imo and i would prefer him over any of the 30 plus brigade from the NRL.
