I can see King coming back with a clean sheet and having to work his way back into the side. Hudds seem to not want him, or not at the price of his salary anyway, and I can't see any other clubs offering him such a lucrative long-term deal. Maybe he will just start afresh, knuckle down and take on board any criticism. He's young enough still if he can put his past mistakes behind him. It's a big IF though.

I do wish we could get Wardle signed up, although I expect him to be at Wigan in place of Bibby.

Mikaele missing?

I went through it twice and wondered who was missing

Brandon Wakeman from Bulldogs the latest rumoured signing. 23 Yr Old Hooker/Half, Fiji International.

Maybe now Watson has worked with him closely, he realises that there is no prospect of improving him.

I hope Toby will like the Newcastle night life, because that`s where he could be heading.

Damn

As the Tanginoa story died then, if Wakefield do go down I would say it’s more likely we would sign him.

Double edged sword, you might be able to get him cheaper as he's desperate for a contract or it might be competitive if there's a number of clubs vying for him

Not sure if we have any Quota space left for 2023, with all the overseas players that we have signed?

Triple-edged sword... if we sign him before we know who's being relegated, we could end up releasing him straight back to Wakefield if we go down and they stay up

This is happening

It's WakeHAM too, in case you're looking for an old highlight reel on the Toob.

Plus, he got banned for eye-gouging. Opposition fans are going to hate us even more than usual next season with the team we're building

He looks better at half back than hooker TBH. We wanted a bunch of ball players, seems that's what we're getting.

He's also a dead-ringer for Benji Marshall, which would help satisfy our reputation for signing retired, past-it NRL stars.
