Thank Ink. I thought I was being optimistic….

I'd try not to be, if you have no expectations you can rarely be disappointed :laughing:

Not many backs you guys are rattling off are from the modern era.

Yes, I've learned from the Curtis Rona saga….

I never really thought signing another centre would be our best bet. I always thought a new winger was necessary. I thought our best bet was to find a new winger to replace Noffa who can defend, switch out Naiqama for Fonua, and keep Marsters as the other centre and MWZ on the other wing and Thompon and Tui can battle for fullback.

Do we have to wait until the end of 2018 before signing him?

Yes, very funny - had to chuckle.

Schofield and Hanley were two of my favourites. This young guy they're chasing has a touch of the "Schofields" about him.

He said his dream was always to play in the NRL and if any club offered him a contract from the NRL he would take it even if another club from the Super League offered him more money. So I would say we might just have him.

Anthony Gelling has looked very good for the Warriors.

Gelling is a big boy , apparently Geldart is not

Yes but people are trying to say the English outside backs cant convert to the modern NRL.

Ummm Gelling looks to be a doing a good for mine.

Isn't Gelling a Nz junior tho? Hardly an English import.

Gildart is one of the decent centres kicking around super league

And I thought Gelling was dreadful in defense last night, especially in the first half. I hope we get Gildart. We had some great success with British backs in the past, distant as it is now….

Yes you are right Demps, i wasnt aware of that but he cant really be classed as a Pommy player.

The Black Pearl, Ellery Hanley was electric!…
But if I was going for a back, now, Ryan Hall would be devastating playing for us! He's the best winger in the game, bar none!
