I’d rather that (not Wakeham) than sign somebody on mega money who might not work out or play well and go home after a year. The next 2/3 have to be right and add real quality or it’ll be another long season. But I’m not holding my breath.

I agree with what you are saying I’ve just heard we’ve had tentative talks about Sullivan and there is no interest from him in the SL. Hence why I’m pretty confident it won’t happen.

History also tells us that we target a quality half. At first it looks promising but the negotiations become protracted and end when the player either signs either a new contract or leaves for another club. Then it all begins again and we end up signing someone like Reynolds.

Leyland is a no go because he joining Warrington to replace Drinkwater, it won’t be popular but think the stars are aligning for that one.

I wouldn't get a pass if we waste two quota spots on him and Cust.

Where has this been said that he is on a plan and Cartwright had a go???

Leyland doesn’t look much to me tbh and isn’t he also on the chunky side as well

I am aware that Drinkwater was offered a new deal to sign another contract with Warrington, but turned it down because he had a better offer elsewhere.

Don`t have any information where his new club is though.

problem is he wobbles around the pitch like the michelin man, not doing the job he's well paid to do. Until he gets into shape I'll keep mentioning it

My stance also.

If we did that would be a sure sign the investment isn't what we hoped it would be.

The non quota signings have been largely underwhelming but understandable given the options available at the time of the investment.

Using/wasting a quota place on Cust is strange and you have to wonder if that is the standard of player we are looking at to fill the final two places.

I'd rather play Cust and Abdull in the halves and sign another 9 instead of signing drinkwater, he's had more clubs than Tiger Woods.

Always said last two quota spots are key and what would tip the balance of our recruitment either way.

As some have already said they had a meeting with Jordan in Catalans, with clear instructions that come from Cartwright about his fitness etc and it starts now.
