so my comment holds water as it was based on the video....

Since that stat was being used as a means to bash the player then yes, i think so. He has been vocal from day 1 at London that his aspirations of coming over here were to join a Super League club, hence only signing a 1 year deal at London. I say give a player a chance before writing him off, winger is not a critical position at the end of the day, this halfback signing will have much more of an effect on how our season turns out. That is where my biggest worry is now.

Dunamis Lui released from Canberra, shame we don't have the cap space, he would go really well over here.

Depends if we get a half, if not we could get him providing Tommy and Clark leave. He would be a good signing for anyone in SL although I think he will stay in the NRL.

…but he’d only take up £75k on the cap regardless of what we offered him.

Lachlan Walmsley apparently signing for Halifax so that’s another to cross off the list.

Hastings counted 100% to the cap though

Wasn’t marquee allegedly although I think he may have been upgraded to that status last year.

Williams bring home grown and marquee resigning for us would have been one hell of a signing given his cap value to us.

I’d be disappointed to lose Hardaker for sure but I rate Sarginson tbh and would rather have a committed Sarginson than a Hardaker with his head in Yorkshire. I’d like both but that seems unlikely. I do honestly just see Hardaker as a pretty good centre. He’s never tore teams apart from there and he certainly isn’t a wingers centre, so if you’re a strike centre you should be getting over for your fare share of try’s and his record hasn’t been great.

I’ll worry when I hear it’s Bibby and Thornley starting at centre but I can live with Sarge for Hardaker.

Fair enough. I can see where you’re coming from and part of me wants to agree to be completely honest but the majority of me just doesn’t. Agree to disagree
