Someone at work reckons he has read on another board that Starship Widnes is about to have another crew member.
A big signing will be named today. Any truth?

I'm not sure to be honest Chris. There was something on the other board last week about a big signing but that didn't materialize.
Now there is another post that the big signing will be announced today.

We hear this every week!
I don't think there will be many more to add to the squad and and dual contract players may come between the Cup/start of the league due to availability/injuries etc.
I understand that Kevin Penny will still be coming back though.

Chris Dean
Kevin Penny
And a permanent signing for a back rower would do me, that enables someone like Varkulis to come from the bench.

Lomax from Saints can kick i think and could also slot in at Full Back enabling Ford to move to the centre position. Thats if we can get him on a dual contract.

For me though think i'd have Yacca over Lomax... he;s our lad at the end of the day! |

| Keep hearing rumours that Gavin Dodd will be leaving Widnes to re-sign for Oldham. Anyone else heard the same?. Have been out of the loop for a while so might have missed something.  |

I dont rate Yacca to be honest, for me he's too lightweight and dodgy under the high ball. I know he's still only young but for me i dont think he will make it. |

I think he still has time and this is prob make or break season! I'd rather we gave our lads a shot rather than help train another sides as we need to bring through our own players to tick youth boxes and more importantly for me, a bit of local pride in the squad! |

I agree if was good enough he be showing more promise by now.He is 22 now so is developed now.Think he is a championship 1 level player like draper and josh simm. |

Tend to agree - another young fullback, Richard Owen, came through in 2007 (aged 16 if i remember correctly). He's now had 3 seasons at 1st team level and played nearly 50 games at SL level - and he still only 19. I know some players develop later, but IMO if you've not shown enough by aged 19/20 maybe 21 then its unlikely they'll make it.
To be fair, when he's not making mistakes, he does look like a decent player, but probably due to his mistakes and lack of confidence, he been in and out the side for 2 or 3 years now and each time he's had a chance he's not really taken it. I'd probably give him one last chance in the NRC and friendlies and see how it goes.

Dylan Nash would be a good signing for you guys. Would be the most impressive player you hav signed so far.
