Sign more than one and we'd be over the overseas limit wouldn't we? I hope so. We don't need a back anywhere near as much as an impact forward.

Yeah but sod the rules. Storm and Wigan did.



Agree ... But both would be better. Do you ever get up to Townsville then ? Lived there but never fancied the drive to your apparent neck of the woods. Not quite same as UK local derbies distances is it ?

When reading about Penrith saying they wouldn't be signing Hock a few days back they mentioned that they would need to replace Frank Pritchard with somebody else.

Where's he off to?

I'd not read that he's signed for anybody else and wouldn't be suprised to see him over here.

*Edited*

Just googled it and read he's signed for Canterbury.

Maybe we should go for Hock.....

As for 'derbies' here, at least we now have the Titans, who are an hour or so down the road. NQ bring a lot of supporters to brisbane, including of course a lot of people who now live down here.

In these litigious times, describing Gareth as "Oldish with bad teeth," may result in you paying out for his next Ferrari rather than some hairy backed creature!

I meant the sheep to be honest of that description would be an improvement on Gareth's usual standard of clientele.

( Do they make Ferraris made to measure these days ? Surely the company would still be restricted by carriage way width ? )

For my two pennorth, we need a youngish impact forward to help JP and Kylie out. Since the Cas game, Kylie has done more than his fair share of work. We dont need anymore backs but a forward would be very nice thank you Mr Hetherington.... Would have loved to see us sign Willie Mason. Bring back Barrie from retirement for the game against Wigan and I wonder who would be copping it! I bet the first HKR v Wigan game next season will be televised - Friday Night Fight Night!!!!!!

As for the overseas player numbers am I right in saying both Scott Donald and Greg Eastwood were overseas players as of the 2010 season or had they somehow gained residency or claimed grandad rights?

Personally I would push the boat out and sign Larne Patrick from the Giants, that lad is going to be one top player.

Yes he's a top draw prospect.

Great speed and impact with ball in hand.

Would be a nice addition to our squad.

Although I do agree that we do need one or two new faces in the squad, I also think we need to see a massive improvement from some of our more established players. More specifically the likes of JJB, and Ablett. These 2 have been pretty 5hite to be honest this season and the performance of the back row in general has been a concern for most of the season. Clarkson has been a real find and his defense is excellent, but I hope he can real improve his attacking play as at the moment he's a bit of a passenger when we have the ball.

Have to agree.... Yet another reason to start with a second row next season of Senior and Delaney perhaps. Have often said Clarkson is not a good option off the bench either for the reasons you state.

Ah. I quickly scanned it as sheep...Gareth...oldish...bad teeth.

Apologies to the sheep.

And as Gareth apparently has the same tailor as the Pope, I would have thought the Highway Regulations would be of little interest to his Yorkshire Eminence.....
