Chester said it in his press conference today.

As I say, the club are waiting for the right time to announce it.

Genuinely hope you are right. My info was it was agreed but nothing was actually yet signed but time will tell. For what it's worth i think he'll be here but we might be looking at the Hull KR game at home at bestbefore we see him.

I know.

Sorry. Am I following this right. Are you saying we've signed him?

I'll take silence as a no then.

I know he’s signed some sort of deal, what I can’t be sure of is whether he will actually arrive. As we all know they are not the same thing. All contracts have get outs etc etc.

I remember Tony Smith proudly telling us all he had the signature of a young player called Joe Westerman. We did indeed sign him for about a week then he bailed as he was entitled to do, it was in his contract.

I reckon the club are playing it vague just in case things happen. Like me I suspect they won’t believe it until he’s actually here.

Hope that helps

Link to the press conference mentioned above?

Why?

No we are talking about a player that could be transferred to us with a ban that won't be able to play due to having to isolate because of government rulings coming from abroad, not one who is already signed with a club then getting a ban and then catching covid but you may of found a get out silly as sounds

Why not?

Someone said above that Chester said that we'd signed him in a press conference but I can't find anything.

Think you’ve got the wrong end of the stick there. I pointed out that Chester said we hadn’t signed him in his press conference and that the article wasn’t just taken off something said on here. Might well be Chester telling porkies but that is what he said today. The video version is on the RL with JD facebook & twitter sites.

Ah OK. Thanks for clarifying.

I saw his presser and he said nothing new to report they have spoke but not for 4 ort days and the new coach at cronulla may give him a chance
