And since Jimmy is going to play Adam O'Brien every week unless he's in a hospital bed, then it makes sense to keep a young prospect on board, someone who has been in the system for a bit and is ready to step in if needed.

Tyrone Roberts mentioned by vossy commentating on newcastles game as being in talks with Bradford. Be one hell of a capture if they can pull this one off & good goal kicker to boot.

Well it certainly seems we'll be looking for a scrum half in the off season regardless of which division we're playing in next year. Roberts would be a good capture

Replacing Siejka should be a priority. He was clearly a last gasp solution when GoB fell through, and the way he's played so far has shown why nobody else bothered to sign him.

Well, the club are doing a Fantastic Four thing with regards to the middle 8's with some of the players taking the place of the Fantastic Four. I commented on Facebook that Siejka should be the invisible woman as he's been pretty invisible all season and I got some right abuse for it

If Neilsen finds anywhere near his Storm form he will be quality for us.

Where is he at the moment? Can anyone do a sort of Xmas Eve Santa trail on his progress across the globe please?

The club stated last week that "He is due to arrive in the UK later this week, once his visa application has been approved". The incident that got him sacked from St George didn't involve the police so you'd hope that his visa would be completed without any issues.

Was mentioned in Friday's t&a article that he was still waiting on his visa paperwork coming through and he's now expected sometime this week. Guessing we wouldn't expect him to play much part against Sheffield, maybe a stint off the bench, as he wont have had many training sessions with squad.

If he turns up reasonably fit, I'd go he other way and say he'd play, more or less, the full Sheffield game. We've just got seven games and, to be honest, we don't have time to 'ease' anyone in. In any case, of the seven games we've got, the Sheffield game is probably one of the better ones for bringing a new player in.
