Yep we get told that about every player we ever sign, so I suspect I wont be.

Second yep, no player who's ever joined us is as tall, fast or quick as we think so again I expect to be pleasently surprised.

PS: had a good look at him on the old Youtube and he looks well over 6 foot so I suspect he is about 6'4" - unless of course you're suggesting you've had the old tape measure out and actually measured him!

WTF is a last world Charlie?

Thanks for your pearls of wisdom.

No need to thank me.
Just my opinion on a player who has not failed to disappoint over the last 2 seasons.
Forgive me, I didn't realise the Wakey victim mentality is still so strong.

Catalans Dragons will definitely be top 8 once again. However with the Australian representative backrower Gregory Bird back, and supported by fearless Kiwi prop Samuel Moa and a fit and sizzling centre Krisnan Inu, they should challenge for the top 4.

I expect the Catalans to annihilate most teams, and to be highly competitive with the likes of Warrington and Wigan (my prediction is assuming the fitness for the bulk of the season of stars Gregory Bird and Krisnan Inu).

Prepare to be disappointed. Catalans should finish top 8, but the current coach is not good enough and with an inferior squad to this year i see no better than 6th or 7th.

Here we go again! The usual 'Catalans are going to do this, that and the other'. I thing GREG Bird will make a difference, but it will be the same old with Catalans until they realise that Frayssinous isn't up to the job and get a decent coach in place.

Scruton won't fail you either.

Enjoy the championship

Greg Bird is a fine player, as is Sam Moa. I've got a soft spot for the big man (as do most Hull fans) for his time here, and I was glad he did well in the NRL.

However Catalans problems aren't their playing roster imo.

There are some big units in there for sure, but as you say size isn't everything.

Fifita looked a real handful last season. England and Huby are good solid front rowers. A couple of steps below top class, but good players. I really hope Keegan Hirst goes well, but this is his first time at the top table. It's a workmanlike back row with good size and mobility, but it lacks line breakers for me. Allgood is mediocre at best.

I genuinely mean it when I say there isn't a bad team in the competition, but I just can't make a better case for anyone else to finish bottom. If Brown leaves Widnes however then I might just retract that statement.
