Slightly off topic but Leigh have signed Glenn Stewart. Top top signing for them.

Don't know what's going on with Catalans. Todd Carney's left to go to Hull KR according to League Express - "on his way out of Catalans due to both injury and off-field behaviour, with a number of players thought to have not impressed the club with their activity away from the Stade Gilbert Brutus". "NRL title contenders Cronulla Sharks sacked him in 2014 for off field issues and he departed Canberra and Sydney in similar circumstances in earlier years". Something clearly gone on there, quite a few shown the door.

You would have though Rovers would have learned if its true about them signing Carney........

Thought there was an issue with a UK visa for carney? He'll be a like for like replacement for kelly

Re: Going down : Sun Sep 25, 2016 10:22 pm  

Id rather keep Kelly if I'm intent on having wayward players in my squad.
Offers more unpredictability than Carney. Been really disappointed in him to be honest. Showed great ability in the NRL, but seems determined to squander his talent. Been underwhelming at Catalans.

Should go well in the Championship though.

Believe Rovers will beat Salford. Hope so anyway as part of my family in Hull support them. First match of rugby I saw back in the 40's was at Craven Park when my parents took me. Mum was a Rovers fan and dad(FC) went along to watch Wigan.

And many believed Rovers wouldn't be in the MPG as they would beat Huddersfield.

I said on here a couple of weeks ago that Rovers face a very real danger of going down as I believed they would be in the MPG. I think many on here thought I was talking bollox but just have a feeling that it will be a very close call and think Salford may well do Rovers and send them down.

As for them signing Carney I thought he was unable to get a visa due to off field incidents on record etc and was refused before?

Always suspected mixed marriages don't work, you ended up in Oz to get away from it all Fred. Have you got over your Wembley trip yet?
