Yeah think I got over excited mate :/

Cory Paterson played on the wing for the Tigers this morning

No, given number 3 shirt but played on the left wing. Kicked off a lot.

That'll be why I thought he played centre then only watched for about 5 minutes, cheers. Isn't he supposed to be a back-rower though?

Yeah, he's a back-row. Tigers are a shambles at the moment, plus they have a load of injuries. He didn't have much involvement, Roosters just blew them away 2nd half. Most unlikely winger since Frank Parker?

Hull fans will tell you he played on the wing for us! Haha

Ouch

Cory was signed by the Knights as a 17 year old fullback from western Australia. He pretty much played as a fullback till then, but was turned into a forward at training before he ever played a game for the Knights. He did play a few games in the centres in the under 20s.

Any news of Sandy getting fixed up with a job Roopy?

No word on the coaching team for next year other than Andrew Johns says no, Brett Kimmorley wants an assistant coaching job, and Michael Hagan says his door is always open.

Sandercock's still here. I reckon there's a job for him at Newcastle with Rick Stone back in charge.

One of thr rugby papers has 'saints snap up burns' just waiting for club confirmation it seems! But we have dixon from london! Looks like we need a new 6/7. Next season give the captains armband to somebody who won't leave at the end of the season!

I'd be extremely disappointed if true, makes you start to wonder why bother recruiting anyone who will turn out more than average. We need continuity but how do you get that if your best players leave and your crap ones are released? In reality does this make Travis any better than McDonnel or Taylor who are vilified by sections of our support. OK we've got a few quid but unless we get a good HB and retain him for a number of years that will be worthless.

If it's true that Burns is going then, IMO, we have to recruit in 2 of the most important positions in the team and only 1 quota spot available. Who would be available that will improve the team? Unless there's a superstar signing around the corner to soften the blow of listing burns then I fear we'll be significantly weaker next year. We're only managing 9th now FFs.
