It was me that asked about our next scrum half and he gave a bit of a politician’s answer and just talked about how good Williams could become. I agree some of the questions were a bit meaningless but that the way those things sometimes go. You should have asked him something if u thought they were rubbish!

I think his 7 weeks comments were valid to be fair. If he is changing our attack and doesn’t get the international players back for a few more weeks then I suppose they’ll need a few weeks. Add to that the bad weather through to spring and it’s probably realistic that the flamboyant style he wants to play will improve as the weather does.

How bad was that comedian by the way?

Crap

So that’s one player signed up, room for one more?

You’d have to hope so. If we were offering the rumoured £120,000 to Hastings then I pray to god Sammut hasn’t been offered anything like that.

Lam spoke of a prop/second row. Given the signings of recent times I wouldn’t be expecting anybody of any great note. Maybe Lam has somebody in mind from down under.

Small but telling tidbit in the Adam Pearson interview in League Express. In a nutshell he said that Ian Lenagan told him Wigan have cut their playing budget. Lenagan thinks we can still be competitive with the reduced budget.

Was pretty obvious with a bit of maths but there you go.

League Express reporting Hull KR close to confirming Drinkwater.

We should be aiming to dominate not happy with being competitive.

I suspect we may go for another Championship player, it’s right on trend these days.
