If he has pace, then he is already a step up for Ade "New 2 Year Deal" Gardner.

He sounds like a squad signing to fill the gap left by Meli. It just means we have more cash for a stand-off or prop. Our last speculator (Walmsley) is going pretty well so why not try someone else out.



I suspect that Gardner works cheap so giving him a new deal is not too bad. I would hope that he can prove his fitness first.

In hindsight, I'd have taken some of the players Bradford did. The likes of Sidlow and Chev Walker show a bit of heart at least, and are a huge improvement on Perry and Laffranchi.

not heard anything about you signing him but makes sense as he is out of contact at the end of the season... and he is behind murphy and mcgillvary... he managed to get ahead of luke george.



never really had a good run of games with us but not let us down when he has played, has put on alot of size last few seasons and runs the ball back strong.



was well thought of when we signed him from cas but got a bad injury.



think we are offloading dawson and george so we can get jodie broughton

Broughton signed for you a few weeks back.

Where we ever actually in for Broughton? Or is too big a signing for us?

It makes sense though, it sounds like he was a Brown signing for Hudds, but has struggled with injury. Brown has obviously seen something in him to sign him twice.



As others have said, if he's big, reasonably fast and has a least a modicum of either sense or co-ordination, then he'll be an improvment on Ade Gardner.

i hope you are right, one of the top wingers in super league, him and mcgillvary on the other wing

If we were looking to allocate a big chunk of cap to a winger when there are such glaring deficiencies in more pivotal positions, I'd be very concerned.

The importance of this signing is only weighted correctly once we know the value of other signings.



If we simply have this fella and Walsh. Then it's a poor turn around.



However, when looking at signings in a capped sport, you have to look at the overall turnover for the year. With wingers I'm not overly concerned we've not had an awesome winger since Darren Albert and still managed to play well.



Wingers are really bottom of my worry list. The trouble with today is that everyone wants the inside info on every signing, 2 months before they happen.

And yet Hudds manage it without having a cack squad , as do Wigan with Charnley , Leeds with Jones -Bishop and Hall etc etc.



so it look like Hudds sign a top winger to be first choice and improve there squad and we sign there 3rd or 4th choice winger to help them free up a crumb of cap space , nothing like scraping the barrell .. great stuff



"world class team for a world class stadium" has never been less apt

Couldn't have put it better myself.
