| I hear you and these types of signings are much to get excited about, however, I believe you have to wait and judge recruitment on balance. If we sign these two players and three top drawer payers in addition it would like pretty good. I understand that's a leap of faith and the latter may not happen but it could. Plus I believe these signing can add strength to the squad. Walne offers more than Moran (rumoured to be leaving) for me. ZDC is unlikely to make the 17 each week if Lunt is fit so it isn't a quota spot we can afford to have in the stands. Lee plus a quota spot to play with looks like good business for the position we are in.

Why on earth do we believe all the hype on hear no one at the club has said that we are signing Lee so I will believe it when they do and all the other player we are or have signed when the club tells us then talk about them

| Imagine if we announced maguire now as opposed to when we did, everyone would be raving about signing the best player of the last 3 months in SL and be praising the club, but we'd still be in exactly the same position.
If ZDC leaves, and a quota spot opens up. The chances are we use it, and with quality higher abroad the chances are we sign somebody decent in a more problematic position like scrum half or second row then you're happy. If it means signing tommy lee to enable us to sign cooper cronk for example you'd take the deal
( we are obviously not signing cooper cronk but I don't follow aus right enough to know who is available) but the example stands

| Very disappointed BMM has gone to Wire. Regardless of the rumours was hoping that we might pull off a surprise and get him..hey ho, we move on.
What we obviously must not do is overspend on crocks like last time,and average run of the mill signings or we will be average run of the mill and end up in the 9-12 spots again.
Thought we would have had some signings apart from Dagger and McGuire by now, but hope Sheens and the board get it right this time. Please not lets have another rubbish season.
I,ll be there, but want something to shout about this time.. ps. and beat the dullers and shut them up!

| BMM was never going to happen, just Westmorland throwing out some click-bait.

This is why you have to strike early to get the players on the right money who want to leave a club rather than have to prize a player away from a club by paying far more than you should, the want away players will have soon moved on, as the current state of the squad id be happy if we won Widnes never mind fc. Pull your finger out sheens.

Sheens has said from day 1 he has a number of targets and will be highlighted once the WC finishes. Absolutely not surprised we haven't announced we've signed anyone yet, very few team have. I'll wait a bit longer before getting worked up about it.

Spot on. I think the only teams who have announced signings are ones who are making wholesale changes. (Wire, Leigh etc..) others have just announced 1 or 2 which they had sewn up before the end of the season.

Some years ago the RFL decided when teams got knocked out of the challenge cup at a certain stage they would be a comp called the plate can not remember its name to play for before the main cup match at Wembley we won it very easily but it was then never played again so I reckon we still have it
