I might be suffering with a young case of alzheimer's here but wasn't a Simon Mannering name mentioned months back? That would be about the only signing from the Warriors that would really really surprise me!

Will they field a team of props 1-13 next year? Anderson is building a team in his own image, like Bulls 96-05 but without the trophies

Back in the fifties and sixties players only ever changed clubs when the chairman went up to them and said, "you're playing for X from now on, here's your bus fare", and the last bit was only if the chairman was feeling flush....I guess the boot's on the other foot now

Hope the new assistant will be someone who can motivate and get the players fired up.

I said on the Wigan board I'm very jealous of them. A coach who would die for the club and not afraid to show his passion.
