Jamie Peacock fits Mick's description but would probably need to prove his fitness in training this year (though maybe not under Kear last season).

It has to be Michael Worrincy!

Michael Platt!!!!!! He'll be bouncing off those concrete barriers in no time!

Epalahame Lauaki. He’s building up to play almost 8 minutes either side of half time but there are question marks as to whether he can do such a long stint

It'll be as a ""Defence Coach"" then

Looks like Josh Johnson is a done deal. I hope we are not just grasping at straws with this one. Widnes don't seem too bothered about losing him. I think he has played at about 8 or 9 clubs in his career.

In fairness to him it’s 5 clubs officially but he’s been shipped about on loan or DR a lot.



I think it’s a handy addition if it comes off. I’d rather have him than no one put it that way

Surprised if Widnes think Ant Walker is a better bet than Johnson.

What makes us say Widnes aren’t bothered about losing him?

Supporters on their forum don't rate him but that may be sour grapes.

From the media it just looks like a simple a case of he wants to be closer to his home in West Yorkshire. Likely to do with work etc. Widnes ain't going to get a transfer fee at this level so its just about getting best possible deal for them. Reporting that there's an agreement he can't play them in the season.



I don't think it's a case Widnes don't want him.

In effect we have swapped Ant Walker for Josh Johnson. Got to be the best transfer deal in history!!!
