Re: Sheriffe
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Re: Sheriffe
Although this topic has been discussed I think the prospect of Ricki Sheriffe is becoming more a possibility with the fact that there are only four teams left in the play offs and all those that have either not made it into the play-offs or been booted out already have revealed their british signings for next year, with Harlequins already disclosing that he turned down a new deal and is going elsewhere, I think he will be going to one of the four clubs left, and if you look at the wingers at the four remaining clubs, I can only think it is us!!
Saints- Gardner and Meli (No chance they would sign Sheriffe)
Leeds- Donald and Smith/Hall (Maybe to replace Hall/Smith but I think Mcleanan likes hall)
Dragons- Murphy and Pelo/Khattabi(Murphy looks to be signing a new deal- Pelo/Khattabi - cant see it myself.
Wigan - Richards Colbon Phelps (Richards but there are rumours colbon is of to Hull KR and with Calderwood gone..
Maybe just Maybe
Personally I havent seen to much of him, but he looks strong and was a talked about being a possible member of the England squad, I think he might be worth a punt! I think him and karl price on one side and Carmont and richards on the other, I think that would be two pretty good partnerships... All we would need then is Fui Fui Moi Moi and Darren Lockyer and we could let the good times role....

Re: Sheriffe
Ian Lenagan is probably scouring the para olympics for a winger as we speak.

Bradford Bulls have signed winger Rikki Sheriffe on a two-year contract and are expected to snap up his Harlequins team-mate Michael Worrincy.
