I'm not saying he wouldn't be a good signing just I think someone more in the Peacock mould would be better for us.

Ideally get Webb in for 2010 and when Fielden and Coley go at the end of 2010 bring in someone like Luke Bailey (if Saints haven't snapped him up)

It will take more than Webb to make our pack feared again to be honest

For those who watch the NRL what is his current form like? Is he playing well or is he going through a bad patch, and is he worth all the effort to get him here or can we do better by waiting a year.

In regards to his visa, if they won't let players in who have driving offences against them I can't see a chance there gonna let Webb in, who I believe has battered multiple people outside of the game to put it a good way.

Bailey out with Webb in as the only change to the current squad would leave me very happy indeed.

As far as i know his only potential conviction is a drink drive charge that was held against him that i think he is contesting. He was done the day after his wedding driving back to help clean the venue.

Do not think he has any other convictions against his name.

As far as i had been told the visa problem was the issue that prevented him signing, but according at the other poster it has made the weekly rugby press in Australia that he has signed.

Personally doubt this to be true because of the visa situation and also down to the fact the Cowboys have already lost Tronc.

Webb could be a good signing and the enforcer we need.
Sam T has only just got into his first season and the thugs and cheap shot merchants are already having a go. They could well be put off if Webb was in the team and he could be the protection policy for Sam and the other young players we will be bringing through in the next two years or so.
Not many seemed to try it on with our young kids when Pongia & Craig Smith were in the squad.
As for top class props, that sort of money will only be available when Fielden & Feka are OOC and IL can re-negotiate or replace.
The UK Border & Imm may have relaxed their view on visas now they have had their pound of flesh from Rugby League.

Webb pleaded guilty and got a 6 month driving ban and a $750 fine.

I don't know. The army of Joel Tomkins, Fielden, Lockers, and pretty much the rest of the forwards running over seems to do the trick when anything happens.
