| Due to the success of our forwards going over there I'd be amazed if the likes of George Delaney and Harvie Hill are not right at the top of their target list. Both look ideal for the NRL

| Huge blow for Leigh with Asiata taking a huge deal at Hull FC for next season. If Amone goes back to the NRL as well, they've already had a glance in to how the pack looks without them and the replacements will need to be top class to make up for that sort of drop off.

Got Holmes as well but Leigh have re-called Chamberlain early from his months loan…nothing to do with Beaumonts rant we think.

They also mentioned on Sky about Adrian Lam following him to Hull with the potential to bring Lachlan too.

| Interesting comments from Graham on NRL360
Said that Souths have made an illegal approach for Delaney and Saints are fuming.

the trouble is they can get away with it, especially now more of our players are getting Oz based agents to represent them.
i think we are probably all in the same boat. If a player gives his all for Wigan / Saints, and are offered a gig in the NRL, then whilst we are disappointed they go with our best wishes. If they are getting tapped up or down tools then they quite rightly get abuse from the fans. We had KPP leave last year, we knew he was going, and he went about everything in the right way and performed on the pitch, however prior to that Gildart appeared to down tools and his attitude from a fans perspective looked poor so he got quite a bit of grief

| Chan coming on loan to Hull this week, can he play backrow, that probably where we are weakest right now?

I don't think Souths or any NRL club will be bothered. They will carry on approaching who they want as they don't respect anything over here.

He has played there for us but wasn't massively successful in the position. That said, a lot of us, myself included, think that's where he would be best to concentrate his efforts going forward. Whether that would be helpful to yourselves short term is debatable though. If you're short in the back row he may go better at 13. Whole hearted player who runs it in hard. He should do well for you.

| It would be good for Wigan if he does get a go in the second row and plays well in the position. Our need there longer term is certainly greater than prop. I like the looks of him as a ball playing loose forward in the reserves mind and if we ever decide to move Ellis from loose forward, he would probably be my choice to go in there, over us just running an extra out and out prop in there.

He does look handy at 13 and could develop well there. As you say though, we could really do with him converting to a strong running 2nd row and I reckon he's got the tools to do that. Maybe that's behind the Hull loan, given their need there?
I like Mago at 13. He's got good hands and moves the ball well whilst still having the powerful running game that the extra prop option brings. He seems to have the fitness levels to play extended minutes now too.

| I was going to say about Mago; he has played 13 a bit, hasn't he? Can pick a pass as well as having an offload. It's another option, at least.

| I'd move Mago to 13 this weekend if I thought he could do the minutes you need from somebody in that position. His handling ability is superb and comfortably better than what we've seen from Ellis so far. He's worked hard on his fitness and it's much better but you'd still need to get another stone or more off him if we wanted to use him as a starting 13 IMO. As things stand he's a good option to use there in shorter bursts for sure but probably not a starting option.
