Very good player wish we had signed him i dont think he is an halfback in a million years thou so i dont know why you need him to be honest

I think he will play 1/2 years at stand off with lomax at scrum half. Then when wellens retires he will move to full back with Gaskell coming into stand off. Future looks bright IMO.

Provides cover for half back and full back. I think Gaskell and Lomax will need time out at some stage of the year next year and his signing gives us that option. For me it means Pryce is a goner, a 6 & 7 combination of Hohaia and Pryce will be a step backwards for the club and will only hinder #Lomaskill's development.

I don't think he's the marquee signing Mr Big is making him out to be, but as long as he isn't on a massive wedge isn't a bad one.

Because playing rookie halfbacks together for the next couple of years could knock em both back.
I think Saints know what they're doing on the player development front,don't you?

Can I just thank you for bringing this guy over to Superleague!...

I have been a fan of this lad since the Kiwi Tour in 2002 and I can't wait to see him play regularly in 2012!

If Wakefield (or when) get relegeted I will be heading over to get my fix of SL when it doesn't clash with our games.

Good Luck for the rest of the season, will be supporting you as ever (apart from our fixtures!)

Wellens? At full back? For 2 more years? Jesus, the Earth will be rotating faster than he'd be moving by then.

The rotational speed of the Earth at the equator is about 1,038 miles per hour.


Jes' did not know how fast Wellens was.

Yes, I realised that just after I posted it... Long day in work...

Don,t take Pyrce out of the equation for next season................reckon he could play an attacking loose forward.

I agree, we can't expect two rookie halfbacks to play at the level they have been over the last month. We need to be very careful with ther development in order not to set them back.

Where would wilkin play ?
