Hopefully this is the first signing of many.

Are they squad players and possibly part time ?

Such a tragedy RIP

The RFL are to bring back scrums, alter the ball steal and injured players must leave the field if injured. For me the most interesting rule change is about injured players. which should stop players going down pretending to be injured to buy time and energy.

Good spot Dunbar. Ok I will say though that 5 is far too many.

Is this the start of the clear out.???

It is becoming more & more obvious that players from Australasia are . on the whole, a risky business recruiting them in this demanding finance climate for our Super League clubs. A large proportion are signed on large contracts on watching clips on NRL matches before they are surplus to requirements by their NRL clubs and offered to Super League clubs. which should rings bells as to WHY. They may not like the weather , get homesick and are not up to the grade expected. Folua(Hull) springs to mind . Some even break their contracts and not return for pre season training. A maximum should be brought in. but it is not in my remit to say how many , but I do believe it is absolutely necessary for the health of our game.

I cannot imagine in the south of France that you get Brrrhh weather in January. buy you sure will when your cross the channel.

Yes the kicking game was poor no pressure on their line . For me Holmes should have played and we would have had some variation in our kicking.

I wonder how long before the dust settles do we announce the comings & goings.????

1. Ferres 2. Bussey 3.Welham

Nothing to add. just come in from the pub, time for bed.

It bl==dy stinks

Yes

Doyle & Beckett re squad players only. Minns has not played for ages. so between Holmes,Parata or Fergy for last 2 places.

It makes a lot of sense Mark Sunday is much more important that tweets from the whole world on who is coming and going.. But nothing wrong with banter, that.s why I am on this site,

C@$ have got plenty of halves anyway

Definitely the right decisions

Cant see it, he is not the flavour of the month

The final is stacked against us, but we will go with confidence, if we can play in these conditions today, The top of the ground in France should suit us.

1. Halton 2. Brown 3. Welham ( not often in top 3 but he is improving weekly)

Well played lads a good solid display we never let them into the game. Completion good, defence good in fact good all round.

Just going to the match sorry but TO now 38

Half time in France 16-12

We will all find out on Saturday early evening.
