Soon after he'd gone I realised that If we could have replaced the ambulance behind the sticks at belle vue with a burger van he would have probably been SLs top try scorer that season.

That cracked me up

There is "no longer NRL standard" and to be fair I wouldn't class a fit Collis as that - and - those who are not just not NRL class but not IMO SL class.

Shut up for once - you're the only one generalising unless you're actually daft enough to suggest some Aussies don't come here for easy money

It was a sad waste of talent. He did not appreciate the ability he probably had and would only retain during the short life of a professional rugby player. Crazy to let himself get into such an unfit overweight shape and turn into a joke amongst Trinity fans.

Many including myself would have loved to have had the ability and the chance to play professional rugby league.

McDonnell has looked an elusive runner when I seen him play although that hasn't been that often. He was liked at Saints and Hull KR and his video footage looks pretty good.

McDonnell is a specialist FB - we've just lost one; to replace him with McDonnell on a one year deal would be a good bit of business; the perfect transition for young Jowitt as starting FB for 2016.

Hull KR wouldn't pay £130,000 plus car and house accordingto an old twitter discussion which is why he was released. Hope we're not offering anything like that to a player who for the last 2 seasons who has not played much nommatter what proven class he's had in the past.

I have no idea if he is signing or not but he is a Wakefield type of player I.e. One with something to prove. He was displaced at Hull by injury found a temporary home elsewhere and showed some promise until his injury jinx struck again.
I will support any player willing to put on the red, white and blue or black & pink wherever they come from.

I guess that's down to opinion then. As I understand it, 'past it' is usually a term to describe something or someone that's too old to be of any use. In this case, if 'past it' is an attitude thing, attitudes can be changed....

exactley attitudes can change with time on there side so carnt be labeled as past it. only old age makes u past it.just vastman talking nonsense again

Would the possible signing of Owen, McDonnell and Keinhorst make people happy with the squad, well before Christmas?

That would round off the team nicely.
