I'm fearing the worst for Wakey this season. A big turn around of players and with the 2012–14 licences knocking on the door, they need as many positives as they can get.

Motu was a cracking player but I can't help feel he will never get back to his best after all his injury problems.

Youre right he probably wont get back to that level. I would however be very tempted to offer him a 1 year deal if he could prove his fitness to play 9 with Houghton.

i see what you are saying but imagine the fans if we did that. They would be in uproar signing an injured player etc etc. If I thought he could play for a year then I would do it but I have no idea on his current fitness tbh.

So basicly,these players get total rat Rsed,then crawl into training next day.?

Glad you can toss it off at work....wish I could.

According to someone who had seen him play onion a lot he'd got back to a decent level of fitness. I guess a pay as you play deal might suit us better but maybe not him if he can get a permanent deal at Wakey. He's only 27/28 i think, just really like the bloke and would be tempted.

We could do worse than getting him to put 3 stone on and play him prop, he never feared running through brick walls.

Jesse Joe Parker will surprise people next season playing in Super League as he is a very good player.

according to Wikipedia he is 29, 30 next May

Thought he'd be around there. Would have made him 23 when he came over to Cas, and he'd already been at NZ Warriors for a while then Brisbane for a bit.

He could teach Lauaki and Radford a thing or two about taking the ball up hard and direct too!!

don't think he would be up to super league level now.good player on his day,but the championship will be his level now.

Motu was at the Stadium announcment today and I got to meet him. Has def signed for us. Said he was fully fit...but then I guess he would
