We needed strengthening in the pack Knight and Watts till end of the season plus Eseh bolsters that, still think this Salford situation will rumble on and we might get one of the centres if they don't get paid. 

Heard something regarding Lafai, but that would depend on quota dispensation.

Well well well, I was told he had a clause in his contract he couldn’t sign for a SL Club. 

Not sure on this best years well behind him. 

Im surprised but theres nothing to lose. Given the new protocols that players can only play so many games in a season.

You would only need one injury and we would be struggling as it stood.

Cuddleclub:

No he hasn’t. Oh yes he has

I can't see this one working out well. Injuries and suspensions are an issue plus he's 34/35.  I can't remember the last time I saw him have a good game.  Hopefully he was cheap.  We definitely should have looked for a 2nd rower with that quota spot though

Biffs Back is way on the money and early !

He hadn’t at the time, in fact 24 hours ago he’d practically signed for a championship side. Kind of wished he had. Best days well behind him. 

Chris71:

Can't see that would have been legal unless it was Watts that asked to be released from his contract, if Cas/McGuire where the ones to instigate his contract termination then they wouldn't be able to restrict his chances of re employment.

In fairness McGuire said in the post match interview that he expected Watts to go part-time and it looks like we've come in at the last second.

Sounds like he's struggled for fitness all pre-season, however it is a long season. If he can focus on getting his fitness levels up and be ready to be called upon when needed whilst on presumably reduced terms, then I think its a decent deal for all involved.
