Oh Dear, Oh Dear, Oh Dear!

Strange one for sure



The real question is on tickles value, if he's getting paid minimal and as a back up then its not a bad option especially as a middle man. I don't think he was signed to enhance the team but probably provide back up as scruton and johnson could be mid term injuries. If that's the case then i don't think its bad value.



Vaivai looks exciting enough, worth a punt for me

not a lot of quality flying about though is there, considering Cas have signed james green and mitch clark in that position, Paea's a punt really considering that was based on form of 2/3 years ago, Wigan signed an unknown aussie prop Hamlin is it? as a 5th/6th choice and played a large number of games in SL last year its not bad.



A lot of our fans just need to take the fact he played for Hull out of the equation

Not a good signing 4 year ago let alone now.Past it and was told he was a bit of a bad influence when at Hull off the field? We seem to have good spirit behind the scenes and all this does is clog up a young players route to first team. Would rather see Lawler or even Salter before this crepwit. What a sack of dung signing

Not impressed then?

After Walne and Lee I took the line of decent squad players and Walne has time to be decent.This signing looks desperate and it's nothing to do with being ex FC he is simply not good enough anymore.Cant see any positives to this and god knows what Sheens thinking? Yes Sheens is highly experienced and I'm just a fan but this is a shocker imo

Just looked at the HDM article and the VaiVai signing also looks a strange one? 3 major injuries and fitness not guaranteed? Oh well just hope he stays fit and we avoid Rock bottom

We get into the habit of not signing people with injuries we would not have a team I imagine

tickle signing looks like a real shocker and nullifies vaivais capture a little, he looks a decent capture and what we needed,sign of the times , leeds, wigan,saints seem to bring through super league quality youngsters through and should prosper most in the coming years. as the overseas market dries up over here .rather have taken a punt on a youngster from the lower leagues , easier said than done though

If we do the business on the pitch then Alls well and good.is VaiVai an upgrade on JBF? Puzzling signings even now after initial shock has settled. It's beer o'clock and time to go see what happens tonight. Definitely a Bovril called for

You have to wonder to be fair. Both have struggled with knee injuries. JBF's a little youger and has a Visa. He also had a few brain explosions in the Championship, of course. Vaivai has played NRL but not since 2011, has a conviction for assaulting a girlfriend and expects his visa to arrive 'within the next few weeks'.



Still, he's Rovers now (pending visa), so fingers crossed he can play a bit.

Shows how slim the pickings are and how desperate rovers are for bodies

Only a one year deal.

If it doesn’t work out you can always give him the peoples elbow

no teams will get many nrl players due to the salary cap now. in fact our best players may go to nrl . time for all clubs to bring on there own young players

Me, Trolling! I am disappointed

gene ormsby next? Been released by hudds. Probably better than shaw

Pfftt i like you to play better than ryan shaw #obsessed

Shaw deserves his chance. Our 1 through 5 should be fine if we get equal share of the ball. But there lies the rub?

Maybe the new Aussie they are talking about will be the answer who knows

Top quality overseas half coming in according to hudge?

Daniello Mcguiorvitch



Played 6 NRL games in 2009, since then had 14 knee reconstructions, a ruptured eyeball and had 4 fingers removed in an alleged incident with a farmyard animal.

There all here

I was told a rumour a while back we was after 4 players well we signed junior vievie, and tickle, heard we may have signed a half back waiting on visa, so no quota spots left so have we any non fed for PNG players if not guess were not getting Luke page
