If there's one half who's made the absolute most out of the talents he was given it's Finn. So I hope some of his smarts and knowledge can be fed into young Ryan and make him the player he wants to be.

Interesting it's just for a year.Just my opinion but I'd have thought he or we'd have liked a 2-year deal, I wonder who's call it was on the length of the contract.

Anyway, welcome Ryan and I hope you finally settle here.

A real positive feel about this signing. Always remember Nigel Wright showing his best form in a Wakey shirt no matter which other clubs he played for.

Thinking about it some more, you could draw a lot of similarities between Miller and Ryan. Their style of play is similar, both quick, with a step off each foot & can create off the back of it. In Miller's case, he came over to England as a 21-year-old, with very little first-grade experience & was given the task of being SO at Hull, which is a lot of pressure to take for someone with little experience, under the spotlight of the fans at Hull. While he's been at Trinity, he's grown vastly as a player and become far more well rounded, such as when and when not to take on the line, plus has just generally matured as an RL player
Similarly, Ryan was brought into Wigan's first team at such a young age & found it difficult to really nail down a place because of one reason and another, that's been talked about before. He's then been to Cas, then to Leigh & is still only 22, nearly 23. He could definitely learn a lot from Miller's journey (plus what he's learned already) and how he's developed his style of play.

Anyway long story short, he's got 2 really good guys to learn off .

Welcome home Rocky.

Always good to see one of our own in the Red, White and Blue.

How did Ryan acquire the Rock tag,

His name begins with "R"

Don't know how it started but even his dad calls him Rocky.

One of my sons played in the same team as him at Stanley Rangers, his mam and dad used to call him the pocket rocket, Ian Sampson who was coaching the under 8's over heard them and thought they were calling him rocky and it's stuck from there.

Thanks for that wollow. Explains rerick Turner.

I think he balances our side up perfectly.

Except for one are. Nothing to do with Ryan but we don't have a backup kicker to Finn anymore.
I wonder who will take that on now.

Joe Arundel has done a bit of goal kicking, so if he was in the side I would expect it to be him. Then Miller.

huby kicked 43 goals (for castleford?) previously....
Grix has kicked 31....

Theres a few that could fill in, but I doubt any would be to the calibre of Finn.

I'm sure we all know why Derrick Turner had that nickname.

Miller kicked a few goals for us in 2015. Different skill set, but his drop goal from half way, in a pressure situation, to me would give an indication that he has got a decent boot on him.

On the other hand, Hampshire kicked 24 goals in his Wigan days, and if he is going to take over long term from Finn, then potentially, he could end up being the kicker.

Also, should he get his chance, and go well, doesn't Ackroyd kick?
