Talking to one of the players in Leigh the other day and I mentioned how fit Duffy looks. He said his new nickname was "Rex"



(cos he looks anorexic)

Well, we haven't signed him yet - so I'll wait for Basil's judgement. If he thinks Mills is worth the punt, then who am I to disagree?



As regards Nanyn - we all know what his shortcomings are, but Basil obviously weighs that up against the number of points he'll get us a season, and considers it a calculated risk.....either that or we are gonna see a completely different Mick Nanyn this season - which, if the rumours of his weight loss/fitness levels is to be believed, could well be the case.



Either way I'd still take anything Viqueen spouts with a huge sack of salt!!

They are not rumours about Nanyns weight. I saw him at the launch and I am a MN knocker but he looked in good shape.

Must be said that Nanyn had slimmed down during pre-season last year - the key is that he keeps the weight off during the season.

Bit surprised to see Littler in the second row (even though he spent most of last year there).



Is still bound to score against us though?!

Mills didn't impress me too much yesterday our own props including young Meekin went better imo
