the first world class player we have had at widnes for many a year..............

This is just not true.

Only last season Lee Briers, Brett Hodgson, Adrian Morley, Ben Westwood. Trent Waterhouse, Ryan Atkins, Michael & Joel Monaghan, Chris Hill & Richie Myler all played a game at Widnes.

Thought Wigan are being a little cheeky with the statement that they didn't want him to go to any one of their main competitors so offered him to Widnes.

Would have liked him at Salford. If you can keep him focused he'll be devastating. It's a big ask though as he seems like he's all over the place mentally.

He may have been devastating at Wigan, but that does not translate the same to the next club. He may find himself doing more hard yards at Widnes, than he was used to at Wigan when other players took on that burden.

Great Player on his day but will he start to get frustrated at Widnes?
Can't see him keeping on the field for every game? Could be a nut job

They've ran out of salt in Widnes already today.

GREAT SIGNING !!!
Would get into ANY side in SL.....well done Widnes.

Can't not be thrilled with this

I said last year we eneded well and rather than mass changes a few gradual tweeks and quality additions could make a big difference. Kevin Brown, Phil Joseph and Gareth Hock! Thank You Mr Chairman

He looks and sounds super happy to be were he is!!!

Sad day for my club. Widnes have got one of the best second row forwards in the world. Enjoy.

Obviously comes with a lot of baggage but devastating on his day. Very happy with his signing. We need to kick on now both on and off the pitch.

The video has sort of hammered it all home.

It's bloody surreal is what it is.

Fantastic signing, we normally have decent success with loan players too, I cant wait to see him pull on the Widnes shirt and Kev Brown for that matter.
