Where will that come from do we think as our quota is full-less a Kolpak spot?

Is this Oli Wilkes, as in, the Oli Wilkes that played for Leigh?

Good god.

Talk about scraping the bottom of the barrel.

Won't be troubling the England selectors looking at rltheserl
Workmanlike

he has stepped up to super league very well imo, a good go forward player.
think mr kear has got the best out of him playing really well at the mo but i would'nt belive everything you read in the sun.

GF why have you compared him to Hock in your stats comparisons- Do I [isniff[/i a rat here Does he run a good line in attack

Yes and the same one that is a Scotish international.

If Purdham, Robinson, Williamson, Golden et al are all fit, then Wilkes won't get a sniff in the back row, so he'll get upset he's not getting first team football.

So then he'll disappear to Widnes/Doncaster/Barrow etc. and take 20-30k of our cap with him, although by now of course it will be too late to get a replacement.

Then when we do get injuries later in the season, there will one less option to cover back row. If this happens we won't be unfortunate or unlucky, we'll just be stupid.

Leeds and St Helens have laid down the blue print or formula, you buy proven, high quality players (Webb, Randall, Gidley) and then you complement these players with the best of your reserves.


Mick Nanyn was a Scotish International.

Dont tell me Chads off and being replaced by Wilksy!

No…! I was citing him as one of the top quality players we have in our ranks.

If all our signings are the “calibre” of Oli Wilkes, I'll think long and hard about renewing my season ticket, because we'd be destined for another year of disappointment.

His stats measure nicely against Richard Moore, who I liked when he played here and still think is a Prop who'd go well for us.
I agree Wilkes has stepped up, and I actually think he'll get better.

I would be amazed if we can afford any higher caliber players to keep you happy PTB.........all our money goes on community activity

Erm, neither were, the were/are Scottish internationals...

Wilkes? Ho-hum. David Mills standard at ball dropping but more pace and aggression. Maybe he's improved ... How about this one for the future? Start at third paragraph. www.nottinghamrl.co.uk/newsc.html That's one big lad for a 20 y.o.

Awful. Hope this turns out to be a load of rubbish.
