Go and have a read of the Saints forum if you think we should be trying to sign Burns. The guy sounds like nothing but trouble, we should steer well clear.

and collecting a decent wage for doing nothing too.

Greg Eden is playing reserve grade in the NSW competition.

Greg would rip it up in the championship but he's a fullback primarily, not sure how suited he would be to playing in the halves, and more importantly I don't think he'd want to come back to play in this country for anything other than a SL side.

He can play 7 competently and is very fluid in that position.

I was just pointing out that in the Australian reserve completion there are some big name players that could and would do a job for us.

Look at Leigh who have signed Josh Drinkwater from the Illawarra Cutters.

Travis Burns isn't happening.

I don't know much about his personality but then I wouldn't put a great deal of credit in the opinion of a anonymous forum poster either. I trust the new coach to do his homework on potential recruits. I'm just trying to join up the clues given on Tuesday.

Possibly not Mick, I'm certainly not 'in the know' but I don't pretend to be either..

St Helens would have to pay a high proportion of his wages for it even remotely happen.

Why what's our budget? What is Burns earning?

Where did you get that nugget from.

He would be a poor man's Ryan Brierley at HB. An out & out winger/FB.

From the four games I've seen him play this year he's started at both FB and HB in a versatile role.

I'm just using Greg Eden as an example of the type of players that can be found in the QLD and NSW competitions.

Eden has played i the halves, sure he played 6 for the England knights too. Sort his defensive issues out he would be a fantastic player, saw a rumour the other day he was signing for cas next year though? Think he would flourish under Powell

Pewhairangi looked alright on his debut for London yesterday. Missed a trick there?

So was Jake Mullaney
