The 'reconsidered' retirement of Hicks conveniently made room for Monaghan then

Plenty dogs in Warrington town centre on a friday night.

more like a blank cheque with morans' signature on it swayed it

More or less what I said, bet it doesn't count on the salary cap either

Warrington seem to be headed down the Wigan route. Not caring about the production of youth players and forcibly retiring players to sign more overseas players.

They will have an outstanding team. One has to wonder about the legality of it all, but no doubt they will be paying Monaghan more from next season if King retires then.

Alot of jokes will come by with regards to this signing. What people won't be talking about is what a good player Warrington now have. Shame, but his own doing.

Still, Warrington look stronger with him in the team in my opinion.

Must be doing something right.

Aye, big name import becomes available a few sides interested and suddenly Wire fit them in

Hodgson
Riley
Gleeson
Monaghan
King
Briers
Myler

Looks the best backs division in SL. Where will Chris Bridge play?

I can guarantee that Gleeson won't be playing, so maybe Bridge can play there?

Monaghan (despite doing a foolish act) will be one of the stand out players in SL.

Enjoy him whilst he is here because as soon as he can he will be hopping on QF32 back to the land of plenty never to return.
