Perhaps there will be some props leaving ?

We probably have the right balance of backs provuded we do not suffer long term injuries.

I cant believe the club are going to take him back with his injury record.

Presumably because when he was here, he was excellent Dobby.

Hopefully, the club will reassure fans as they will obviously have far more detailed medical information with regard to something that naturally and understandably concerns fans.

He wasn't that good, when he wasn't injured

Would need to know more about the deal to know if it was a good or bad move.

A pay for play contract or low initial with rising per appearence would be a good move, when fit he is a very good prop

anything other than that is a huge risk on someone who has real injury problems and when you look at players who are injury prone, they dont tend to get better, wheeler and prescott are 2 who spring to mind, i dont know any player who has had 2 years of injury issues come out and go on a good run.
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure

I'm of the same opinion kooch can't believe clubs of Leeds and Wigans standing have not looked into his injury and they have a better understanding of his fitness.Wigan obviously don't want leeds to have him for some reason.

Nothing is official as yet, and if it does turn out to be correct you dont honestly believe wigan would take such a risk do you? C'mon lets be sensible folks, it would be like k&m taxis buying a car with bust head gasket, hoping they would get at least 1 airport run out of it b4 it had to be scrapped! Lol. IF true then that shoulder would have been vigerously tested. And by all accounts, he passed a full fitness test at Leeds as well.
