Any chance of getting these threads cleaned up so we can discuss the original topic or do we just have to read "handbags at dawn" every day?

Will it be Liam Finn or an Aussie/Kiwi scrum half that is coming? Loads of rumours.

It makes a nice change for us to be surprised by some of the signings instead of it getting leaked a month before the announcement.

Deary me that's rich. Nothing anonymous about me nor am I hiding 12,000 miles away.

Nothing petulant, I just don't like the posters attitude.

Your amature analysis of my personality from 12,000 miles away is especially amusing.

Just as an aside, living in Oz doesn't make you our resident NRL expert - that one is getting especially dull.

I am not a big fan of Liam Finn.
Didn't do much for us last time,maybe that is partly due to the fact that he came from a struggling side that got relegated, to us who always were earmarked for relegation.
After a bit of thinking, i don't think if he signs should be used just as a half back, i believe he could do a job at hooker.
The modern game, unless you are an exceptional talent, requires the player to be versatile and a club like Wake needs quite a few utility players to get value for money.

Pudsey Cat makes a good point. I'd prefer not to clean up but just get back on track.
We are talking about our potential new half back. Let's keep to it.

Personally I'd be ok with Liam Finn. It's not all about the individual but more how he fits in the team dynamic. We haven't had a running scrum half for a while anyway so no loss.

If he can take the tram around the park with McShane and Wildie we have others who can run.


Deryck Fox and Paul Deacon always did ok with a passing and kicking game. No sprint from them.

I assumed we were all amatures, i have yet to see a SL coach on here telling us how to go on.
Just saying.

That's what you think

Well possibly!!!

God help us if Finn is our 7, old and slow and a pretty average near poor kicking game.

To step up to Super League at 30 would be a big ask of him.

Of all positions to debate, I'm inclined to believe Agar will get a good fit for the team at half back.
He was pretty good himself without being Andrew Johns and knows what is needed.

You can see that is why he likes a big pack. As a half back that is very important to you.
I can't imagine he will build a team and then just settle for anything in this position.

If it's Finn, I assume Agar has considered the decision and chosen who he thinks is best.
Depends who is out there. I'm sure he wants it sorting soon.

Would be tempted to see If any of the Bulls half backs come free. The board wanted them to take à 10% cut players refused and offered to defer their wages but board said no. Could some walk for free just get off wage bill.
