B0ll0x, absolute w@nker that one. He will never get picked for England again.

Oh not for his ability but for his attitude.

What's that got to do with him going to the NRL?

Monumental oversimplification of the position.

British clubs can't afford to compete with the new NRL TV deal regardless of what restrictions you think the RFL are placing on UK clubs.

SOL to Souths?

Myler?

I'd hope not, we need a half, props and a centre.

I think he meant Sean O'Loughlin rather than Soliola?

How do you figure that? Look at the population of that country and this one. Make an estimate at how many people outside of that country or this one have even heard of Rugby League, especially in the sixties.

Hull KR are the most famous rugby league club, and it's Mike Yarwood's impression of Eddie Waring what done it.

Yes.
But it is only a guess as he's out of contract at the end of the year and Maguire really rates him.

Can see the possibility, but would O'Loughlin leave Wigan?

NRL Salaries are going thorugh the roof. SOL has already had his testimonial.
He's a tough player who'll fancy his chances to impress - I'd fancy him to do well.
3 years in a different scene may appeal to him?

Possibly, he's 30 this year and with the money now available in the NRL it would be a great opportunity for him. I think his kids are pretty young to so there would not be a major disruption in their education.

Totally agree especially when you look at somw of the dross that has come over here on the back of an NRL reputation.

Super League got a new tv deal as well but the only thing that expanded due to that was Nigel Wood's waistline.

I thought about that as a possiblity too, but surely Sean is a Pie for Life. There are not many players who can claim to be as good a clubman as him, Sinfield, Wellens, Horne perhaps.
