Wingers

Post by cvtiger » 18 Sep 2008, 09:58

Well, Colborn & Sheriffe have now been snapped up. What is left out there?, and do we have the money to get them?

I still think a full back is needed as well.

I'm concerned that we led the charge with signings from the NRL but as the quota contracts we need home grown players and they just don't seem to be about.

Celtic & Salford really are going to struggle to get any home grown players of quality, I just hope the gap at the bottom is not going to be too wide as it tests even the loyalist supporter with week in week out beatings. And the Pussycats have been quiet, they'll be struggling as well.

I think we've struggled for a really great winger since Plange and Singe played for us.
I don't have a favourite second team - it's Cas 100% for me

We have a great winger - Just arguably he may develop into a great FB instead

If you are talking about owen i just dont see it happening, a fantastic young talent yes but i dont know why but i just cant see him developing into the likes of a Webb/Hogson/wellens, someone who constantly backs up the play, good support and can make great line breaks and create??

Maybe i am wrong, lets hope i am and he does progress as DM thinks.

I think he will make it look how far he has come on in 2 years this time 2 years ago he played in the friendly against Manly Warringah touring team and now he is a major talent on the superleague stage give hime a few years which will make him 21-22 and he will be challengeing for international honours

As long as he is coached well, he could be a very good player. He also needs to grow up a bit and show a bit more maturity and respect.

I hope he works on his one on one tackling in the off season.

Why we haven't re-signed Wainwright is mystifying.

Even though he's getting on a bit now, that would be a good signing, guaranteed trys and all round solid game.

He out of contract WRE. There's also Jon Steel who is also available on a free - he would be a decent signing.

Is Semi a quota player ? - If he wasnt he would definately be worth a 1 year deal at the correct price

As for Steele - he just appears average to me and the fact he has been released by Hull Kr shows he is no world beater

Semi wouldn't be too bad if he isn't on the quota. He certainly ran over one of our prodigal youngsters enough times in the last game.

To be fair Rich was left short on numbers but yes he showed how to finish a try for sure -- And he could bag tries for fun with a decent centre inside of him

Tadulala would be, but I'm still unsure as to whether McGoldrick still counts or not. If not, then we still have one quota space free - two if Korkidas goes.

Well i hope we use Korkis spot for a FB so i would ignore that -- If Goldy is classed as non quota and Semi was cheap enough then we should go for him
