I am glad our thoroughly professional recruitment process for 2025 /26 is well underway. Detailed videos, statistics, assessments and references from our Northern and Southern hemisphere scouting network balanced against our needs assessment agreed with the performance team, long lists whittled down to short lists - not forgetting the chance vital celebrity fishing trip to give us the inside line.

I can just imagine Chambers reporting up to the board that for 2025 we need an out of condition, big bopper, with random offload, who will be blowing after 10 minutes who has never played RL before.

FFS Just do one Fitzpatrick. You are a joke. When will you learn? Or is this the owners playing with the train set again?

In case you are wondering how this well go.


Fitzpatrick on Burrell - Abject failure
Wire chief executive Karl Fitzpatrick says the club could not pass up the opportunity to sign Burrell and he expects him to be a big hit with the Wolves faithful. “Opportunities like this don’t come along that often, to sign a player of Luther’s quality and playing CV is fantastic for the club and for Super League. “Having played most of his junior rugby in league, Luther is aware of the required skill-set and the physical demands. “His impressive stature, bone-crunching hits and dynamic running are sure to make him a firm favourite with our supporters.”

Fitzpatrick on Inglis - Abject failure
"This is not a pay day and he is not coming for a pension." Fitzpatrick says it is a boost now just for The Wire, but the wider game during the current pandemic which has seen rugby league, along with most other areas of life, shut down. He added: "It is incredible. This is a signing for all our members and partners to thank them for their loyalty. "This is something for them to look forward too during these tough times. "He looks in great condition and is refreshed and raring to go."

Frankly I dont believe it…there can’t possibly be such a thing as a “celebrity fishing competition”.
I mean what celebrity would be stupid enough to eat a worm covering a hook….oh is that why KFP was there?

The hook accidentally got caught on one of his huge Crucifix ear rings as he was taking a walk along the canal.

Chris Hill did, and played for England the same year. So not a crazy suggestion by any means.

Honestly couldn't careless if we did sign him, he wouldn't count on the cap for his first year, and only 50% the second year.
If he worked out then happy days, if not see ya later. He'd need to lose about a stone i reckon to improve on his fitness......tackling.......etc but this could be a random rumour that some desperate journo has made up, or Karl himself drumming up publicity.

Genge has just signed a long term contract with Bristol. So thank god for that.
