| Korky was one of those players that was at the right place at the right time. We have had a few of that type of player over the years.

| Quote: 1315trinity "I just cannot see the AF thing coming off - reminds me a bit of the Laurie Daley saga back in the 90's (?) although a bit different, because I think the club actually announced his signing - we all sat and waited weeks for his arrival but it never happened.
It's a pity we can't pick up another Korky from the NRL, or find another Walmsley from the championship, or for the older ones another Cliff Watson from RU!'"
They'd even printed off the merlin picture card "Laurie Daley - Wakefield Trinity" for that one, a google image search brings it up.

| I believe Daley got injured just before he was supposed to arrive. Those were the days when the big name Aussie players would come over for an extra few quid after the Oz season had finished.
Think Steve Georgallis was the last one we had before we switched to summer rugby.

If that is the case hopefully the club is now working hard in the background to sign a big powerful NRL standard prop with a point to prove such as Danny Fualolo who doesn't seem to have signed for anyone....

And at 26, some good years ahead of him, and 73 games in the NRL, no mug.
Does AF have good years ahead of him?

That's not a secret. He's said it publically.

| My lad was saying before, that Lee Radford and Liam Watts had a bit of a falling out in their Hull FC days.
Could there be a reshuffle of the pack, across the common, in time

Seen that but every man and his dog is linked with Broncos as needing a big clear out. Perhaps if he does go there might be another target for us.

| If the deal is off, I would get Blake Austin in on a short term deal ASAP, people can bang on about him not been an organiser etc or not what we need, but he is a special player and we are severely lacking special players with a winning instinct at the moment, imo we have one and thats TJ. Even if it`s a months loan whilst we get someone over from AUS.
Last I heard, Leigh were talking to him though.

| Personally I found it highly unlikely he was ever going to come ,think his agents have used us as a foil and leverage to get the best deal ,of which I think we’d would have been well down the pecking order, in term of bargaining power . But as they say when one door closes .......

This is definitely worth a shout but no doubt Leigh & their benefactor will sign him just in time for him to get a hat trick vs us. Leigh are actually putting a decent 1st team together with their late signings and players returning from injury...they already have a strong back line...so they won't be the 'easy' win some people on this forum are expecting, especially if we don't play the full 80
