Re: Owen Farrell

I’d argue it’s much easier to transition to league than to union

He’s an athlete like his father

Personally I think he could play 2-3 years well at 13 if he came now

Re: Sam's Gone

All the best to the lad - he’s earnt everything he takes away from Wigan and all the arguments over his ability can now be put to bed and we can just agree he was Wigan through and through

The season he stepped up for Micky Mac was a highlight for him always gave 100%

I thought his wrists were gone when he played for us they were always strapped up and never seemed to have a lot of movement but i agree very solid player not fancy just hard yards

he's doing well going round again

Re: Owen Farrell

Not aware of anything being signed on this deal but that's not to say there hasn't been. Farrell and Wigan have had an agreement on a contract for months should he decide to make the switch to League, I'm not too sure of the logistics of a deal between Saracens & Wigan, whether its a transfer f...

Re: Sam The Wolf Powell

People have their opinions on him but i wish him well - personally i cant see him going to wolves even to solve a culture issue.

Salford would feel like a good move for all parties

Re: Sam The Wolf Powell

Isn't true, no other SL club would give Powell a second look never mind a first. You beat me to it :D Then again, what does Sam Burgess know about Rugby League? He's on something... I would be shocked if he went to Wire but then again i think if you look at the 2 teams rumoured with him in leeds an...

I doubt it he would be 36 then and while in the past this wouldnt be an issue Union has significantly improved in athleticism and i cant imagine he'd be first pick for England then

Re: Warrington Wolves youngster Riley Dean closes in on Australia move

I think the NRL can speculate a lot more now due to their salary cap and teams like DaveO said wouldn't be willing to improve their opposition but could supply another comp I know the NRL is clear the better competition and i dont argue that personally but lets not forget theyve imported some dross ...

Re: Shorrocks

Shorrocks has a lot of value in his adaptability he reminds me a little of the Richard Whiting who used to be Hull FC's multitool and like DaveO said personally would like to see him stay over ISA however he isnt going to be a first team player soon if at all so i guess its what whether he wants to ...
