Da Costa, Romano and Georgy Gambaro all signed up

Antoni Maria coming back on a two-year deal

I thought that he and William Barthau had been signed by Toulouse.

Worrying rumours n the French site that Bousquet is going to the N.R.L. and that Inu -not Duport -is being released.There are also claims that replacements for Horo and Myler have been signed and that Burgess will leave the club.Overall we are not looking as strong as last year at present and there is still no news about Walsh or a satisfactory replacement for him.

Good for Bousquet. Reckon he'd do a job out there. He's really come on these last couple of years.

I wonder if Bernard Guasch is trying to lure Mitchell Pearce to join his former team mate Sam Moa?

Might not be a bad shout after Cronk signed for the Rorters.

Samisoni Langi signed. 2-year deal.

He was a reserve grade player at Sydney Roosters who might have played one NRL game.

This is the pool in which Super League clubs are shopping at the moment.

Fearful that he came from a relegated side of course, but I like to think that somewhere behind the scenes Trent Robinson is still pulling some strings with his Roosters connections.

Well McNamara obviously has his Roosters connections as well. I dunno - it's not a marquee name, but they just don't come to Super League any more.

Langi has played 12 club games in 5 years. He did look very good when playing for Leigh against us,but we were at that time the worst team in superleague.I do not think that Inu deserved his fate and the squad continues to look worse than at the beginning of last year.Does Anderson still class as an overseas player?

I am quite optimistic for next season having seen how well some of the younger players are developing. This World Cup is going to do wonders for Thibault Margaret, Nabil Djaout & Belmas.
A return to fitness for Simon & Maria will give the squad much more depth imo.

I fear that the world cup has exposed the dire state of French rugby league.
