Wakefield Ram 660 Report post Posted September 24 (edited) As players get signed pick your own team. Think they're might be a couple of others already signed on for next season. Sure someone will put me right. 1 Joe Martin 2 Andy Gabriel 3 Jason Walton 4 Adam Ryder 5 Davy Dixon 6 Paul Sykes 7 Liam Finn 8 Tom Garratt 9. Dom Speakman 10 Martyn Reilly 11 Chris Annakin 12 Michael Knowles 13 Sonny Esslemont 14 Sam Day 15 Joe Magrin 16 Luke Nelmes 17 Fraser Morris 18 Sam Moorhouse 19 James Thornton 20 Liam Johnson 21 Connor Scott Edited October 31 by the old nine ole R Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your original post would still be pertinent BSJ, although I don't unwrap gifts prematurely. I already know that Mrs Grumpy's Christmas purchases will largely feature shirts and jumpers, of which I already have a large number in the wardrobe still unused. Bit like LG's policy on signing second rows last year actually. 2 4 Quote Censorship ends in logical completeness when nobody is allowed to read any books except the books that nobody reads.

I like the idea of Annakin as prop. He reminds me so much of my all time favorite Dewsbury prop, the great Gary Cocks. Annakin is a true team player, never gives less than 100%, never takes a backward step, and leads the pack by example, and if he demonstrates the same degree of loyalty that GC did, I reckon we have an inspirational signing. 3 Quote Censorship ends in logical completeness when nobody is allowed to read any books except the books that nobody reads.

muddyfunster 77 Report post Posted September 26 I wouldn't object to seeing Luke Hooley in the No1 shirt for us next season. It's his natural position and I'm sure he'd do a decent job being here permanently now Wakefield have released him Quote The future's bright, the future's RED AMBER & BLACK! http://www.jmgaskets-seals.co.uk/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I personally would like to hear of a new signing .... or if a re-signing then Paul Sykes would be good!! ..... or Rob Worrincy ... I know he has his critics, but he is still an amazing try scorer, still got fantastic pace... a great entertainer and a good ambassador for the game Edited September 27 by the old nine ole 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No disrespect to Luke but we didn’t want him that’s why Lee let him go back to Wakefield once Joe Martin came on the scene and who I think he’s a better fullback. Good luck Luke nice lad from a good family,plus brother in law of Tom Lillycrop. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
