Yeah, but there's no point in Saints paying him to play at Dewsbury for a year, only for Warrington to then decide he[i is[/i up to it and pinch him.

I'm happy to wait and see, props develop later, and if he's a slow burner than great, I'm just not sure it should take 3 years to figure it out, if we were worried about someone knocking him, there'd of been no harm in giving him a 2 year contract with 2 1 year extensions in our favour ...

His nose is going in the same direction as Shaun Briscoe's

It depends how much he is on. Seems fairly low risk. If he's a dud then Dewsbury will have him
back or another championship club. If he kicks on then he will be upgraded.

He seems to have had a stuttering start but clearly a number of different people see something in him.
Unlikely to progress at the rate of Walmsley but that's ok.

I like these kind of signings. Dimension and balance to overseas and acaedmy signings.

Suprised Saints have signed him up, seen him quite a few times at Barrow, runs the ball in hard but has his quiet moments. Think he can kick goals as well. very much a "work in progress" player, maybe the club thinks they could have another "Walmsley" but I,m not too sure if he can progress into Superleague standard, perhaps we will know next season.

He'll be on buttons, but if he turns good we've got a diamond. If he doesnt make it, the lower league teams will have paid most of his wages up til then anyway

He'll be training at Saints, giving him access to a better and tougher training regime. When he goes back to Dewsbury to play he will show better application and fitness and should improve. At 24 he has a few years to show he is worth another contract.

How old is Anthony Walker?

Didnt even realise he was still at Saints, not seen him involved or even mentioned for months. Anyway, according to the official site his DOB is 28/12/1991.

So 24 in December. Hard Grafter but lacks the size to have an impact going forward?

If Haggerty can fit into a professional environment, its not so far fetched to presume he'd be an upgrade on Walker (whom I like).

We played Dewsbury in a friendly and he's very good. Could be a shrewd bit of business this one!

Could be another Beaumont.

and could be the next Chris Hill or Alex Walmesley ...

He will need to grow some.

Seemed tall enough to me.
