Haughton came through when I was a pup but he was brilliant, a lot have him down as a bit of let down but he played for GB and played in a top Wigan side, he just wasn’t the world beater some thought, I hope Junior can kick on from his initial splash and become dominant like he can be.

He's got 3 years after this, so they'll need to stump up plenty of cash for him. I look at the way in which they seem to have unsettled Danny Walker and then walked away, deeming a 200k transfer fee ridiculous and I just roll my eyes at the arrogance of it all. The NRL is cashed up and we hear plenty of $1m dollar contracts for players and multi million dollar tv deals but they seem to be under the impression we should see them coming for our players as some sort of honour and just roll over.

Who knows what sort of transfer fee we'd be talking for Nsemba but there isn't much we can do with a couple of hundred grand and I'd be asking for the best part of 7 figures. We'll certainly have him here next year but I could see the following off season being challenging, once he's had clubs creeping around him in Vegas.

Simon didn’t like paying RL. I was told tonight that the club are negotiating a long term contract with Junior

Maybe some people just don't fancy Australia? Seems to me, these days, it's far from the sunshine paradise we thought it was a few decades ago. I wouldn't want to live there.

Junior has a lovely family that he is very close to.
