Pretty Sure 'Big Ben' is one of the culprits of the 'bro-culture' at NZW, along with the likes of Hurrell (who's since been sold) along with a few others. Poor discipline, doesn't like the train etc.
I find it odd how people turn their nose up at Zac but greet Ben with open arms.

To be fair, stories about Hardaker's misbehaviour are going to all over the UK press; for a player on the other side of the world, not so much.
Certainly in playing ability terms BM would be a great acquisition.

Possibly. I think that culture was part of the problem at NZW, spit them up and I hope they would adapt into a new culture and the clubs they go to. Hurrell hasn't made any headlines for the wrong reasons since leaving.

True. With the new change to recruitment maybe the likes of Ben and Zac would be on our radar. Both established good players. Only issue is, if you're spending more on individuals your squad is likely to feature less depth... interesting to see what balance would be best.

Heard a few rumours that there will be a half time announcement tomorrow, anyone else heard anything?
Couple of people said it could be Joe Burgess being eligible this season but hardly doubt it due to registration deadline but who knows, we could of got him registered for this season but let him play till the end of the NRL season

Wouldn't be surprised if it was just a video message from Pat Richards to the fans, rather than a signing being announced.
'Do you remember when we had that meeting in Orlando? We talked about how we were knocked out the previous year by Leeds. And at the end, I asked you one question. "Do you want to be a semi-final team? Or do you want to do something special?" You all said you wanted to win. But talking is easy – it needed you to believe. It needed you to work hard – harder than you had – and make sacrifices. You did all that. you worked for each other. You stuck together when it was tough. And because of your efforts, you sit here tonight as champions. I'm proud of you. Be proud of yourselves. You've done something special.' Shaun Wane's post-Grand Final speech. 5th October 2013.
