Why sign a player, who has the same qualities, as players already in the squad??



There IS somebody available!! - Check the players I mentioned in my post.

Is james webster was still able to do a job at super league level I'm sure a team would have snapped him up

You'd give Webster a playing contract despite him having not played in SL for two seasons - in fact only one top flight game since April 2008?

We need a back up half...so looks as though we are getting one that is young,hungry,playing for a contract and has experience of the NRL and we still fecking moan.....how about giving him a chance before you all start with your words of wisdom.

Well said.



Apparently he's a star in the reserve grade over there, which means he'll be a world beater over here.

doesn't matter who we sign or who we are linked with, nobody is ever good enough for us! really does my head in





i remember when people on here were doubting the signings of fitz and o'meley last season!

i think at one time widnes were holding his players registry ( don't have clue if they still are ), so when he came as agars number 2, he'd not be playing at fc also

I'm usually accused of being a club apologist, but he's 27 and has no kicking game apparently. Our recruitment of Sharp and Westerman for Calderwood and Cusack is pretty good. Will support him obviously, but not convinced he's the answer to getting us round the park against the likes of Wigan if Long's injured.

Oh FFS....he will be a damn sight better than bloody Washy and Berro.So he is 27...jesus thats still young and as for kicking game...we havent got one now so he will fit right in.



Why dont you try and watch him play and not go on newspaper reports and hearsay.



So who is the answer...........no bugger else out there and he can cover houghton as well or do you want the slug and 1 trick pony that is Washbrook covering hooker.

well said, hes not even here and where moaning about him, he my come here and be brilliant, who knows??? if/when he signs, lets give the kid a chance

if its a 1 year deal, its a risk i'd like us to take
