concur. shame really.

I just pray to god that all the rumours about Fui Fui Moi Moi on warringtons board are untrue. Apparently its already a done deal.

If it is, then firstly how will he get a visa because i thought he had a couple of problems with that, secondly, why have we not been in for him if he can get a visa?

I think he has had 2 spells behind bars, no chance of him getting a visa.

Just a thought with no substantiation but.......

If IFL is going to bring in a new head coach ( which is almost a certainty ) then does anyone think this is why IFL has said we will go with the same squad again given the amount of players that are off contract the end of next season.

That way the new coach will spend 1 season assesing what he has got before deciding who to keep and who to let go so that the team becomes his team. iE minimal changes but the players that are brought in are the new coaches players and not those of his predisesor. In that way the team will become the new coaches team very quick rather than a sqaud of players chosen by his predisesor.

I think it's self-evident that our main recruitment plan for next year has been affected by the visa thing. Clearly it was going to be Carl Webb, but that's now not going to happen.

My reading of the rest of our proposed recruitment is that it wasn't going to have been extensive anyway. IL may be interested in seeing what a new higher quality coach can get out of our underperforming squad, and I don't think that's a bad idea if an offshoot of it is that yet more youngsters are brought through and given a chance.

If IL was serious when he said that from now on we're only interested in overseas buys if they're from the top drawer, then I'm in favour of this policy. But at present, we do need a strong prop, and - whatever the reason - that's one area where we've currently failed.

He Never said we were'nt sigining anyone.

Would i be right that he said we havnt signed anyone yet. That may be because of the 1st Sept transfer deadline. That doesnt mean we havent agreed terms with a player for a contract to be signed after this date

I think it's well thought if we do say bring in McGuire for 2010, it allows him to look at everybody and maybe even try a few kids, so come the end of 2010 it's his decision as to who we keep and who we let go plus with a year under his belt any weaknesses in the team he can spot and then patch in preparation for 2011.

A lot of these signings being mentioned such as Webb and Moi Moi are never in a million years going to get a visa, so for me Lenegan is doing the right thing by not wasting his time or getting the fans hopes up by announcing them as signings but eventually failing to get them over here due to visa problems.

If Lenegan does not get his finger out and bring in McGuire quick he will end up at Newcastle Knights. Just released there coach early and they happen to play Melbourne Storm tomorrow when a deal could be done.

still to agree terms with darrell griffin.
not there yet!

Given Hudds success he may decide to stay put then. When is his contract up at Hudds?

im not sure when his contract is up mate...

as obvious as it sounds its all gonna come down to how much money were prepared to offer him, so who know's whats gonna happen.

think hes keen to come though thats the impression i get.
