Guess he's got no inside knowledge then
Hopefully he's right on the main part and just has his days mixed up.

Not sure if it’s already been discussed but I’ve seen a rumour on twitter that we’re looking at Zac Fulton from Bradford (well, from Sydney originally). Could be a straight swap for Isa considering he’s likely a quota spot?

(Also ignoring that the poster is a bit of a clown, he’s usually well informed on Bradford info)

If Zac is only half as good as a player as his grandfather was, he would be a brilliant signing.

I know nothing of the lad but that type of signing (young, hungry, inexpensive etc) would be fine by me. I do think we need some competition in that second row and even if a lad like that pushed the likes of Walters and Nsemba on, you're gaining from bringing him in.

You’re extremely wide of the mark here. Stu speaks to a couple of people who will know what’s going on and we’ve passed each other bits of stuff over the years that have all turned out to be true.
I can 100% vouch for his source and what he’s said about Saints bringing a NRL centre over with Briers.

| I was browsing Facebook the other day and came across an article saying we are linked with an NRL player as well as an addition to the coaching staff with years of experience. I then lost the article so have no clue whether I’d read an old article, anyone heard anything?

| Not a rumour or shock really but puts to bed the speculation, Rocky leaving at the end of the year as confirmed by his agent.
Right move for both club and player. Frees up some cap and with developing Farrimond very little scope for him to get game time moving forward.

| I was channel surfing today on the dodgy box and it was a New Zealand channel that was covering NRL and Phil Gould was discussing how much he rates Nsemba. So he’s obviously on their radar. He’s the type of player we need to keep in SL

Exactly - I don't think we need his versatility.
Fullback - Eckersley and French
Wing - Douglas and Eckersley
Halves - Farrimond and Keighran

| Jermaine McGilvary in a recent interview post retirement said he had a chance to join Wigan earlier in his career and regretted not taking it.
Great player - would have been brilliant for us.

There was a rumour a few years ago we tried to sign him but he didn’t want to be a back up, maybe the time we signed Miski?

| Not sure who that toddler was on field celebrating with Nsemba post game….but if he’s a relative of Junior we need to chuck a 20 year contract at him!

The lad is a monster, I don’t think I can remember a forward having this impact as a youngster in Superleague? He’s arguably the best forward in the league with ball in hand, if he can get one on one with a defender you fancy him to make a break. NRL clubs will be making plays for him now imo, any NRL club who isn’t looking at him are fools. I just hope he doesn’t like hot weather and nice beaches and we can throw marquee money at him to keep him for a few more seasons.

Ball in hand I’ve not seen a more damaging novice strike forward since Simon Haughton.
