| Quote Jonnie..="Jonnie.."its good to see we are still loooking to sign new players to strenghen the sqaud, i am sure Matt is not happy about a potential signing being stolen away at the last minute, its not the first time this has happendedtho is it!
From Smiths point of view at his stage in his carreer, the chance to work with Millward swung it, especaily as he already had one foot in the coaching camp. he will no doubt be shadowing Milly to see what gems he can gleen
Lets keep our eyes and ears opening for some more signings in the near future, there is obviously some money in the war chest!'"
No you did it to fev twice in the last few years (Black and that hooker from Warrington)

| Aye I remember the whole Gleeson ordeal, when the Fev fans gave him a load of stick. But Black was never linked with Fev was he? I recall him being linked with Widnes but never Fev.

| yea good point about Gleesson, i was more refering to the palyer coach Brad Davies fiasco and then the micky Higham rumpus that went on.
Bottom line is players pre arriving make a decison they think will be best for them, its a bit like being gazumped on a house, i seem to remeber that newcastle made an approach for Rooney which paved the way for Man u to sign him
as i said Paul Smith in my opnion, is looking at learning from millward for future coaching roles so Leigh is a better option for him
as for the others
Gleeson saw Fax as a better option
Davis saw cas as his beter option
Higham saw over the tops as a better option
and in hindsight they were all proabably right!

| Smith would not offer too much for me as he is 34-we have enough old heads! He also has not played too much this season I understand so is lacking match fitness. I would prefer us to sign youngsters either on loan or properly. Look at Dom Maloney for example. Great signing and young who will be around for a few years hopefully. Smith is a short term move for Fax as we have some good coaches in Ball, Gonzo etc. Maybe Leigh are looking for a coaching member and why he went there. I doubt it is a major loss for Fax if he signed last minute for Leigh to be honest.

It's news to me mate. As I remember it, when we first signed Blacky we brought him over from Aus as a virtual unknown. I definitely think you are confusing him with Gleeson.

Yes wasn't Black a friend of Ben Fisher? That's why we were linked with him.

| I think he means Ben Fisher TBH. I'm sure i read that on the interview he did for this message board or the Norths message board that he was going there before being told Halifax was available.

| Quote [iA message board for the Bears said you were originally headed for Featherstone. Is this true? And if so, what made you sign for Halifax instead?[/i
Im not sure. My agent spoke to a few clubs, and Im not sure if Featherstone was one. But, the reason I chose to come to Halifax is that pretty much you look at the support staff theyve got, and the professionalism theyve got behind the club. Blacky also had a good influence, and Greg Florimo gave the place nothing but big wraps. He said it was a really nice place and theyll treat you well. Basically, off the back of his word, thats all I really needed.'"
