What about taking a punt on Drew Hutchinson from the NRL, he has played both 6 and 7, he is out of contract at the Dragons having missed most of 2017 with injury. He certainly has the size and pedigree.

That's a worry.

But we already have Williams and Tommy in the halves.

I know most people are hoping for changes next season, but I still think wane will have the same starting positions as this year, using Escare as cover.

He will only replace like for like.

Even better how about Tyrone Roberts ???? another quality NRL halfback in his prime with a great kicking game who Joey & Sterlo we’re giving big wraps about all season in a struggling Titans team....oh hang on though Wire have just signed him ???? getting to be something of a missed opportunity theme here after Bryson Goodwin!

I don't think we are in for a half back. Tommy will go round again, both Sam's are an option, Shorrocks is rated highly but will need to get over his injuries and Woods is being groomed for the first team. Added to that there is a confidence that others will emerge from the U19s over the next few years.

I think that we will sign a prop but that may be it!

Yes. Me too.

Then someone shouted: "Wake up, Fawd...your toast's ready". :D
Haha. But what I said is quite true. A pint each half, just over £5 a game, 9 months x 4 matches = 36 games a year, gives £180 a year or £15 a month.

I cancelled my Sky subscription years ago when they stopped me choosing which channels I could subscribe to. I have no interest in golf, soccer, tennis or yawnion. I figured I was better off watching at the pub.
