Are you for real, did you actually think he was ever coming - sories like that eminate from fans like you fantacising - why would a current NRL player come to SL let alone it's poorest club.

These players you call the dregs have kept us in SL for 16 seasons where as your beloved supertars at Salford are one game away from oblvion - show some respect.

You're one of the best posters on here IMHO but i think you're wrong about names.

I personally don't think they do anything to increase season ticket sales or increase interest past the first game. If by names you were talking Thurston them perhaps but Sam Williams and Soward though known to geeks like us are of no interest to the wider public.

What gets people interested is winning your early games something we have failed to do since JK was last here and then hopefully finish on a high for next year.

My personal opinion is that the club will only really kick start it's relationship with the population of Wakefield when we finally go to Wembley or Old Trafford (same for most clubs). The last significant surge in interest in the club came directly off the 2004 play offs and 2008 CCup (close) semi final.

That's how I see it.

MC tweet this morning "always like waking up to a signed contract in my inbox" press release to come

He might like it but the forum will go into melt down if it's Kyle Wood

Now I know MC can be a bit of a WUM, but on his Tweet he has a train and plane emoji, someone overseas?

It looks like Williams used us as a 'bargaining' tool to get another contract at Canberra.
If the player wasn't that keen on coming, did we really want him and spent unnecessary time pursuing him?
Sideshow Bob was the last one we pursued who didn't really want to come and that didn't turn out too well.

Can't find anything regarding williams online. Nothing in the raiders forum either. Little premeture maybe?

Scruton and Sammut since then.

There's a difference between Canberra offering him a deal and him signing it.

weren't we offered shillington the prop from gold coast?

chance it could be him.

I'd say so. So is people saying he would never sign for us.

Correct, he's signed for about 3 different teams in the last 24 hours according to some "sources".

He's signed for us.

Signed for us!
