Out of contract at Catalans at the end of this season and they could be willing to release him earlier for this season if he wishes. Proven Super League experience and adds mongrel to the pack.

Would you be interested in signing him? Got to be better than Galloway.

Not a chance

No, don't think we need another big forward I think we need some mobility in the pack. Hopefully that will come when we get our backrowers and Moon back from injury.

Galloway has improved last few weeks, infact he has been in the top few performers for me.

He is clearly no JP or world beater but the guy has put his hand up since day one during tough times and played big minutes, time to get off his back for a bit imo.

Needs to cut out the penalties though, the lazy stiff armer or laying on at the ruck seems to happen at least once a game.

He has been improving.

But there's nothing stiff about his arm. Pure sloppy. Even Wilkin was laughing when he got landed with one on Friday. Easy penalty.

Galloway is not the player I was expecting TBH, but then again which overseas signing have been any cop in their first season (Ali excluded)?

Even the mighty Buderus was a but of a disappointment for his first few games.

In the SL era, Falloon, Galloway, Achurch, Donald, O'Neil, Adamson, McKenna, Toopi, Delaney, even Webb all lived below expectations in their first season.

I would add Cuthbertson to the list, biggest instant impact from an overseas player iv'e seen for Leeds and unexpected to boot.

Elima wasn't good enough for a top side when he was at his best so certainly not now. Pass.
