No worries we'll put him in the 2nd row

| Quote: Panda92 "When people are mentioning our front row for next year you're all ignoring Aldous. He's been training with the first-team squad for a season now, so he might get a go if we get a few injuries.'"
Not big enough IMO.
Bowden has much more potential.

If we sign Lynch then O'Carrol will be 5th in the pecking order, at 25 and learning from O'Meley I'm fairly confident he'll be a good addition.'"
Based on what ?

Presumably on the reverse side of the "knowledge" that everyone slagging O'Carroll off have been basing their opinions on.

Absolutely, Dowes has had his day for me and won't be retained. O'Carrol is young with SL experience at the most successful club in Rugby League.

Yes, you're right, we should just have given Dowes another two years.

Quote: Marfa Manu "Anyway more to the point, he's injury prone, wrong side of 20, he's Irish, he's stopping the development of our own youngsters (granted our last forward we developed of any note was kingy).'"
maybe not "slagging him off" but a negative to Standee's positive.
Even you were "not impressed".
Again not a slagging, but unnecessarily negative when the kid's only just signed.

I have not posted any where on this board that I have a low opinion of him!....I have posted that it is a risk to sign a player who has been sidelined for near on 2 yrs...
FC must think he is good to offer 3 yrs, yet he cannot even break into the Wigan team unless there is an injury and he is one of their own!

When do people quite get that there isn't an unlimited amount of top-class talent out there, kicking the KC doors down, begging for us to let them in?

OK, give us a list of who would impress you. Mind you, they'd also need to be available and affordable, so shouldn't be too long
