We've only just sorted out the Crocker situation. We'll need a little time to spend the cash freed up. Byrne won't have been on a massive wage either, part of which will have been paid to him as a settlement, so that won't have freed up a huge pile of cash.

I'd rather we made a good signing than a fast one TBH.

Yes i agree, but just because a signing is fast it doesn't mean it is not good.

No chance!!

Just signed a 4 year contract extension at the Titans.

There are very few available 7's in the NRL, which would fit the
profile,we need.

I may be wrong,but the only 7 who would greatly enhance our side IMHO
would be Orford.

Warrington are rumoured to be losing Monaghan back to the NRL,

(My money, would be Orford joining Warrington.)

I was disappointed we didnt sign Soliolola, a bullocking 22 year old centre.

The PNG centre at Sheffield ,Yere has attracted rave reviews.

Would he be worth a punt??

When will people realise the problem with this.? We could offer a million quid, but it will still take 4 to 5 months for him to get here. The days of signing on Monday and playing on Sunday are gone. Visa application is no longer so easy. Unless of course you do't mind us waiting till next year.

Might be worth a go for next season, but wouldn't get here in time for this one.

We have the cash available this season so why not sign someone on a 2 1/2 year contract, get them over here as soon as we can and then they'll have started to settle in for next season. Us, bradford, shudds and leeds all have cap space available so we need to move quickly if someone is available
