Quote: Catalancs "I think he'll have been put off France somewhat by the experience of SBW.
Rugby union in Japan is awash with money, so I agree that could be a likely destination. However I wouldn't be surprised to see him stay in the southern hemisphere with one of the Super 14 clubs.'"

Conroy - Being a Latics fan i'm already immune to watching sh*te. Sally Cinnamon - Treat the Saints forum as you would if you met a girl from St Helens. Best policy would be to avoid altogether but if you absolutely can't resist temptation then take every possible precaution.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_36121.jpg

IMO you need a centre because Bailey just isn't good enough. He doesn't bring anything to the team and is stealing a living at Wigan.

Just put a clause in the contract which says we can bring them back if we need them.

And a year somewhere else could do Goulding a world of good.

Three signing will transform this team in some many different ways it’s unbelievable.

Bailey although a lot more defensively sound than our other centre options his attacking play is awful. If you watch the way Carmont creates room for his wing man then look at what Bailey does it’s a massive gulf in class. Roberts imo is suffering as well being outside Bailey and it’s effecting his confidence big time. Bailey released Roberts once last night and Roberts took the chance and finished excellently with him going in low at the corner which was a proper wingers finish.

Not only will a new centre give us another attacking option which we are desperate for but it will boost the confidence of Roberts who like him or dislike him is here to stay.

Tommy L could be a quality 9 and his best performances and the times we’ve looked at our most dangerous have been when he’s been scooting from DH. BUT imo he just isn’t a SH both his and Tomkins kicking was very poor last night and it cost us. The Hudds players made more yards in their kick returns because we almost kicked the ball to them and allowed them to move up fast. Also the switch back inside Tommy does must be one of the most useless moves in RL. Everyone can see what is gonna happen and it’s not like we’ve got the forwards to punch holes in the defence either.

We need a SH who can get us good field position, get our forwards moving and general the game like Edwards, Trent, Gregory & Lam used to do.

Everyone knows we need a $h!t house prop up front. It’s a must that the guy is a no nonsense leader 2. We just don’t have anyone to scare the opposition or get in their faces. Lets hope Mason will be available next season as we should move heaven and earth for him as he’s exactly what we need

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid. Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal. Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_20333.gif
