God no. Seems a nice lad but looks finished, although he did have a good game last Thursday.
How long's Rangi Chase's contract at Cas?
Liked the look of Ratchford at Salford earlier in the season but he seems to have fallen off the radar recently.
I don't watch the NRL so it'd be interesting to hear from people that do.
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

As one who never expected him to sign anyway, I am less disappointed than some I suppose. We need a SO thats for sure, but there is not much around at this moment in time. What are Wigan doing about releasing players, maybe they might have another like Charnley who could come in at a reasonable price. I assume Tompkins will go to FB, so he will not be available.
Why not give Kriatian Bell a go at it, he is supposed to be very good and there are plenty of other 18 yr olds made it in recent years.

Wigan are reported to be releasing Feka,Phelps,Bailey and Riddell. I would expect Leuluai to share the 9 role with McIllorum and Finch to play 6 with Tompkins at 7.
Not sure what is out there and available for Rovers but not getting Finch must be a real blow.

Murrell? Prefer him there to hooker, in all honesty. We'd still need cover - maybe Bell would be ready for that (the I'anson role, sort of thing) rather than the been chucked in at the deep end. It should be acknowledged Murrell's lack of pace is a problem, but I can't see anybody better being available from SL. It'd leave us cash to strengthen elsewhere, but SO is the obvious gap.

Ben Hornby looks like heading to SL next year & he's a better player imo.
And two years older.
