I would still like to see TL and MM given the role full time next year.

TL has not been aided this year by constantly being shifted from 1 position to another and MM has not had much continuity due to injury.

Reference Priddis.

only seen snippets of him over the years, so i cant really formulate an opinion of him as a player. What i will say though is that the entire SL would go into meltdown if we signed a 32 year old aussie in place of young wiganer (MM).

It would not be in place of it would be to aid his development.

Who better to learn from than an ex Australian International, currently playing top rugby in the dominant side in the NRL.

I agree that learning your trade from a seasoned pro and ex international is good practise. The problem i have with this is that come game day, either TL or MM would have to make way for Priddis to play (or we drop Priddis).

I still feel that both our lads could blossom "IF" they are getting stacks of experiance and stability in the role of hooker.

Another option would be to sign a specialist Hooking coach, this would probably be much cheaper and obviously would not count on the cap / quota.

tbh i dont really rate priddis on that list andrew mcculloough has been good with the broncos this season but doubtful to come over, i however do agree on the need of a specialist hooker if we are to progress

Priddis is ooc and talking about retiring.
I would imagine with his Canberra background Madge will know all there is to know about him.
Always thought Priddis was very good though and I'd be happy to see him come for one maybe two years.
Might be hard for him now in the NRL but with SL he should do ok.

Of that NRL list, Ben Barba stands out. He looks clas when I've seen him for the 'dogs. Not a hooker, but a fine prospect all the same.

Priddis would be excellent for a one year deal while we look around for other options. It would be similar to the kind of deal we brought Millard over from Leeds on.

I'd be very happy and confident if this deal went through.

Are Karl Pryce and Cameron Phelps leaving you lot?

More than likely yes

Any chance of either ending up down in London??

Just seen on Twitter that Phelps still doesnt know anything about a contract for him next season

I don't suppose he will until Wigan have decided one way or the other about making another signing from Australia.

Mark Riddell's early departure has freed up quite a bit more cash than was expected.

Bradford sink to new lows by signing a player thats actually in prison rlhttp://www.bradfordbulls.co.uk/news/4960/RAYNOR%20WINGS%20IN%20FOR%20BULLSrl he is very lucky for them to want him.
