Where's sharky?
Anybody got any updates on recruitment or our next coach?

Sharky is merely a wind up merchant having what passes as fun in his world!

...he's also Rohan

Warrington have signed John Bateman for the rest of the season.
He's been dreadful for Wests, to be honest.

I miss Walter Mitty.

jesus that must be 20 years ago. one of dannys many, many alias wasn't it?

I remember walter mity on here.. what other alias did he have?

Oh I think that many people had the login details for that account…

I will be seeing him later today

Catalans signing Wallace from the Dolphins who has looked pretty good when I`ve seen him play.

Does he still have hair to cut?

Do we need another hooker? -

"The son of Leeds Rhinos coach Brad Arthur has been granted permission to speak to other clubs after a request to leave Parramatta Eels: the club Arthur himself coached until earlier this year.

Matt Arthur has played a handful of NRL games since making his debut, and is widely seen as a fine prospect within the game. However, the hooker requested to be let go from the final season of his contract with the Eels – and the club have now granted that release."

The 9 position is already messy at the club, I'm not sure bringing in the son of the coach is going to help, even if it increases the likelihood of Arthur staying (which it may not).

Ackers seemed to start well but he's not looked good for a while. I don't think spelling him from the bench worked at all, but for whatever reason he doesn't look to be the dominant hooker we were hoping to lead the way with.

O'Connor is great for effort, but I think as a team we're not as fluid with him on instead of Ackers. Corey Johnson has shown glimpses in attack but he's also made some awful defensive contributions in the limited time he's played this season (e.g. letting players run through him at marker). I think we need to bite the bullet and let Johnson go.

Hooker is well down the list of positions we need to strengthen. Ackers will be fine if we can actually get the pack around him sorted out.

Yeah Ackers will come good, he's had a very stop start time and off for a while with injury, he's no pack to get on the front foot with. I think even Cam Smith (the NRL great) wouldn't have looked his best playing alongside that shower of a pack.
