Don't need him, 2nd row is our strongest position and we have plenty of cover there and some quality youngsters coming through. I'm not sure about prop?
Re Bird wouldn't we have had to release one of the other aussies to bring him in? This would have released some cash wouldn't it?

We have been linked with just about every class player who has become available but they have all gone elsewhere.
We have not made one single stand out signing for 2009.

No use signing players that cannot get work permits! You thought that todd carney at huddersfield would leave wigan with "egg on their faces" so as to speak for not signing him.
I'm a better fan than you
Because I don't "Boo"!!!
Yes I bloody know transfer fees do not count on the salary cap for those illiterates that need it explaining to them because they assume everyone is as thick as they are

Did I really? Link? It doesn't matter anyway because it is true we have not made one stand out signing for 2009 and other teams have. Ryles at Les cats is THE player we should have gone for out of all the ones we missed out on as everyone including IL has said we need a prop.
Instead were in discussion with Wakefield about Moore!

Still didn't change his opinion that he would be one of the "stand out" signings of the year did it?
And btw, whilst you brought it up - Do you think anyone convicted of a criminal offense should be allowed to work or holiday in this country without impingement?, or do we not have enough convicts/thugs/criminals of our own that we need to import them just for a few hours a week of rugby?

Having thought a little about it he could go well for us ....... the thought of him ,Piggy, Hock and Fekka would give us some real go forward and all have good offloads ,we also have a more potent backline a lot of if's about a deal though .
