I know he doesn’t have to be at his peak with us. I was just saying that he was at the peak of his career then and was extremely motivated, I’m just worried with Dave being here they might cause a bit of mischief. But then again they might not. The more I think about the more I think he probably is coming for the right reasons. I’m probably doing him a disservice due to the past major signings we’ve made that often haven’t worked out. I’m probably just over thinking and being too cautious.

Anyway, if he’s even at 70/80% he will be a huge asset. The target will be truly on his back and the young forwards in SL will want to make a name for themselves but that in itself might take the pressure of our other forwards and may earn us a few pens. As I say the more I think about it the more positive I feel. But as a Trin fan with past experience I feel like I’m entitled to feel a bit nervous and have some reservations.

If they want to give it a real crack for the club, themselves and each other then fair play, it can only be a good thing for us!

Granville is the best calibre out of the hookers in there I reckon.

Unfortunately Granville is in the starting 17 at the Cowboys most weeks and Boyd started at 6 for Titans last weekend...probably need to look a bit further, someone like Marshall-King who hasn't featured much this year

The problem with any signing from the Southern Hemisphere is can they get a visa and if so how long does it take. We are saved from them having to quarantine for two weeks but I think we will be looking well into June even if we announced a signing now.

Well we have the lad from Saints let's see how he goes it's not necessary to go overseas all the time. Over the years we have unearthed some gems from the likes of Wigan and Leeds A teams

That’s true enough.
