Just to clarify, McGuire's original offence wasn't using someone's disability to make them feel bad, nor was it targeted at anyone's children. It was use of a derogatory term against an opponent in the heat of battle, a term that is rightly now not acceptable as a common insult in 2023. I think the problem that some are alluding to is that the punishment for using that derogatory term on the pitch was harsher than punishments for physically harming or fondling an opponent's bits. I can see that argument and have no problem with it myself.

The irony of this is that I've seen board members on another RL site branded as 'imbeciles' * (actual term used) for arguing against the punishment for use of the term 'sp*z'. Go figure!

Anyway, it's an emotive subject and I'd rather sit that one out...

Only if you tell us first, and nobody else - even your partner or mum!

You going all Jim Bowen on us, here’s what we could of signed

I bet the club has been going through some superstar's family tree looking for a British qualifying ancestor.

Shame to see Riley dean move to a more successful club with actual history

Bit of competition is good. If it proves we have one too many we can soon get them a game elsewhere.

Just before the play offs I posted on here that we were potentially bringing in someone on a short term deal until the end of the season who would play centre. Someone who would have been a major coup in terms of the club and the sport. That someone was Owen Farrell.

I know i'll get shot down by some, especially by any of our Pie Eating friends that frequent this board, but it's true. And I know some of you will say he isn't a centre, but I didn't say we we were looking at bringing in 'a' centre. I said it was someone who would 'play' centre.

If Farrells initial ban for the Rugby Union World Cup hadn't been over turned the plan was for him to play the remaining games of our season in the centre with goal kicking responsibilities. It would have given him the opportunity to stick 2 fingers up to the RU establishment without him having to open his mouth, and it would have kept him fit during his ban.

And the beauty of Farrell potentially signing a short term deal with Warrington was it was his representatives that approached the club, not the other way round. It was done via Martin Gleeson.

I'm now going to go and sit in a bunker for a few days with a finger in each ear.

Now that would have been fun. Not certain how good he would have been. Very good distributor but not the quickest.
