Do I think anyone else to come in? short answer is no I agree with the hole...

I think its now or never for the Farrell idea any older than he is now and he wouldnt contribute anything That's assuming he's offer anything meaningful now I'm not against the lad at all but I'm a cynic at 32 years old having played union all of his life it's a massive ask for anyone.. Now if he'd...

I sincerely hope not

As much as I like George I just hope not!!
