At awards evening JK said he was looking forward to working with Keegan next season.

| As someone wrote earlier stating at his age & injury list being a problem, I remember another player who came to Wakey as been over the hill & in his 30s & what about the 3 seasons we got out of Alli lauitiiti.
Although Im not directly comparing the two players of there abilities, but let us at least see what he can do in Wakey shirt before we go on about him been a liability. I do think he will be a massive bolster to our pack. Good luck for the coming season Justin.

| Very happy to have him on board. It's a testament to the club that he was sold on the idea of the move by other players, it shows how much they're all enjoying their time here

There is a world of difference between being hit by injuries and being injury prone or past it in other words.
Anthony England has had a nasty run of injuries but as he's now showing he's far from past it.
Anthony Tupou on the other hand was clearly past it.
Age plays its part but not always. Ihowever age slows players down imo rather than makes them injury prone. In the end it's all about luck.
One thin is for certain I wish I was only 32!

| If CC thinks he's good enough, that's good enough for me. His recruitment has been pretty much spot on so far.

| The league is full of "injury prone" players who are performing at a great standard.
I don't buy into the term "injury prone" in a game like rugby league. It's a ridiculously physical game, and by definition, everyone is prone to injury.
Anthony England
Jake Webster
Gareth Ellis
Sean O'Loughlin
To name a few, they have injury lists as long as your arm but when they're on the field they make a massive difference to the side.
If you can get the best out of Horo you've a decent player.
I'm absolutely convinced that the entire catalans squad have a holiday mentality. Couple of years in the south of France..... Looking at their squad they should be nowhere near the MPG.
The point I'm making is that I don't think you've seen the best of him at catalans

Extremely poor culture around that club. They've had top four squads a few times and never kicked on.

Especially considering this year teams only needed to win just over 50% of your games to get in the top 4.

It's still possible that Wigan could make the top 4 by winning less than 50% of their games. Should Saints lose tonight, and Wigan draw at Wakey then, Wigan would finish in 4th spot having only won 14 out of 30 games

| Anyone see the Catalan v Widnes match.
Thought our boy was one of the few Catalan players to come out of it with any credit.
Looked big, strong and a willing worker - don't want to jinx him but he looked a neat fit for our team. Would certainly get more opportunity.
Starting to get competitive is that back row - Arona, Ashurst, Kirmond, Anakin, Batchelor and Horo not easy to pick from.

| You'd have to think startin back row will be Ashurst, Horo and Arona with Kirmond being used sparingly behind Batchelor??
