…. but we're constantly being told that Talanoa is way too slow, so why would speedy cas want to sign him?

Ikahihifo is exactly the type of player we need if he hits his best form but he's suffered with injuries and looks a bit lazy to me but would be worth a try if the swap deal comes off but I'd have thought cas would prefer ikahihifo themselves and doubt hudds want talanoa so can't see if myself

Cas apparently want Seb, and favour a swap with Wardle going the other way, but Huddersfield want a cash deal as part of the arrangement, hope AP can get his cheque book out, another good prop would kick start us again.

All conjecture of course.

… the club are saying "there’s nothing in the rumours...", apparently.

He will have signed by Thursday then

See James Clark in hdm goes a round about way to say what everyone knew. Pearson’s promise of major signings was unachievable. I especially love the bit about deciding to go with the core group of players you already have.

Let's hope the core group of players we already have don't give you a good dicking on February the 1st otherwise it could see you scratting around at the bottom of the table all year, once again.

Merry Christmas Patton. Have a good one All the best for the New Year and Season.

I think it is the “core” of your ground you need to worry about .
Is East Park available for the Derby ?
