I believe Widnes have dropped interest in Smith due to their persual of a higher profile half back target not a million miles from Wakefield.

Chase?

Yes please!!

Hope not, he's garbage. One of the most overated players i've ever seen, won't take on the line and a turnstyle in defence. Always looks like he's frightened he's going to get hurt.

Does that mean the Isaac John signing has not come off??

Just viewed chisolm on YouTube.

Looks good.

6. Isaac John
7. Tim Smith

Much improved on 2011.

Anybody can look good on Youtube.

With his French heritage I don't think he would count as a quota player either and is only young. Maybe he is worth a shot.

I have no names but I do understand that we have been looking at potentially 2 overseas half backs!

Tim Smith has been mentioned too many times for it not to be right

not sure just what some people on here want from WTW lets be honest we are re-building from last years debacle shame we havent got millions to buy a team full of superstars but put this years squad/rumours against last years and we have more than completed the foundations of the re-build.

Tim Smith/ ? or Jeremy Smith/Hyde
Collis/Mellars/Tongia/Fox or Dean/George/Griffin/Veivers/Blaymire
Wilkes/poss Dowes or Hickey/Korki
Southern/Lauitiiti or Henderson
Ellis or Rinaldi (not sure)

would say this years looks better than last already,

I would rather have Korki than Dowes at least there is more size and grunt in Korki

Possibly so.. but surely you can understand where he's coming from?

And higher wage demands?

if you don't know( bloomer ), don't make it up. i do know and i can tell you for a fact nobody has spoken to korkidas about any contract let alone money that was up until friday anyway. as for dowes , think he is a decent player but as with the rest of our potential front row, no grunt at all. we need some size in there not a load of props the size of second rowers.

Given his size and grunt it seems surprising that he ends up on his back after most tackles.
