Have it on good authority, a wire player, that wheeler has signed for next year as cover for the halves and centres, nothing on how long the deal is etc, just he's nailed on, also could still be in for a front rower, said sims is a straight replacement for Waterhouse.

Not heard anything about this.

This is also news to me.

you should stick around craig... this board is crying out for someone who can post a bit of inside info now and again.

Just thought I'd share what I've just been told! Harrison apparently having about 4 different operations in off season, bridge gone in today to sort his injury out too.

Thought we had the DUCK for that

[sizeBloody Norah ![/size, how have the club managed to keep this one so quiet. And why haven't the Saints board twigged yet ? In fact I am surprised some silly sod has not already come on here here trolling about it. I can almost hear him saying " Have you signed Gary Wheelie bin" .

I don't suppose anyone knows if we have signed Daryl Clarke ? I did hear a rumour a while back, but it's gone very quiet recently.

I heard the pope's unwell.

In other news..... the Titanic sank, WWII has been won & the polar ice caps are melting.

TAXI !!!!

I would be absolutely astounded if Ashton Sims were played anywhere but prop.

We heard Wheeler was going to you months ago.

Good luck in getting anymore than a few games a season out of the lad.

You don't seem to understand what he is saying, Sims direct replacement for Waterhouse mainly refers to the quota spot as opposed to the position.
However..
Sims when younger was a backrower and prop, he is listed on the Cowboys website this season as such!
Now in is twilight years, he's a regular at prop, agreed.
Looking at our team this year, given the inexperienced England, form of Wood and Asotasi it looks likely he may play out as a prop.
Waterhouse has played at prop for us to on a couple of occasions this season hadn't he?

Yet thinking about it, Sims with Hill, Harrison, Asotasi, England, Wood, Evans and perhaps Riley there is a lot of competition for places next season.
Whereas House gone, Currie is vastly under body size as a backrower, Westwood's age is a magnet for injury,
Laithwaite will step up (impressive at times) but could find himself dropped for the odd calamity. It seems impossible to me not to at least consider Sims as a backrower on some occasions!?
Hypothetically, if this team at present was in the GF and Sims was available for selection, I would be inclined to start him as a backrower!

Riley is at London next year

I think London will win the Championship IMO. Plenty money there now.
