I've heard good things about Joe Mellor too. Be great to have him down at Leigh.

yes we have another one planned, it was for 3 years the arrangement with the pies wasnt it?
It would be good to see him and even better if we manage to secure his services.

| True and the agreement says they will send their strongest available side.
Did not stop us thrashing them last January did it ?  |

I don't think that other than a bit of fan rivalry there is any real malice between the clubs off the field, we have played each other in freindlies recently. I think that a talented young player whose had a bad injury would suit both clubs spending next year as a dual-reg at Leigh.

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

Is it worthwhile having a halfback under dual contract? There going to be the pivotal area to our attacking side and could be drifting in and out of the team - I'd prefer to try and build a partnership which will be steady bar injuries.

At the last LISA meeting IM said that we would be going with 3 from warrington and 1 from Saints again, if this is the case then I can't see Mellor coming.

I agree we should stay well away from a 6/7/9 for our DC's. Could be too damaging if we lose them at short notice or they are in/out of the team from week to week.
One prop, one 2nd row/loose, one centre and one winger would be ideal.
Tom armstrong from saints would be a good player to get on DC. Highly rated quality winger/centre but with a few lads Meli/Foster/Lomax/Gardner(if he stays) above him in the pecking order at saints. |

Also I heard Chris Dean had been let go by Saints. Don't know if he's found another club yet but he could be worth looking at as a centre/2nd row.
