apparantly he might go to newcastle knights for a year
Why? ...because they're the new Widnes?
I have no idea. Newcastle wanted him but he's joined gold coast for 07 so they might just get him for a season, or souths might. Face it none of the teams that want him are top of the table clubs, but he wants the challenge, has took about a 40k pay cut to go there.

the rumor here is that joe gualavo will be joining wakey and the funniest thing newcastle have signed luke davico !!! they are welcome to him and it wouldnt surprise me if brian signs with newcastle as he is good friends with matty johns who is good freinds with paul (the chief) harragon who is on the newcastle board.

Its been said that we will go for Hooper from Saints. He will not be resigned for Saints as there overseas quota is full and he contract is up. Not sure whether we will have space, but i think if he comes we will lose Orr.

How can he come as our quota is full also?
Dont really rate him although he is better than Orr still feel we need better!
If he is coming as an Aussie and we release someone I would scrap that and sign far, far better!

Is there no other club apart from St Helens in this world who have a stand off that we can have?

could be worse! if maurice was still signing players we would end up with tommy cooper! most of his other signings have been a joke.

Mo has signed many a quality player. Like Lam, Newton, Furner, Connolly, Godwin, Tickle, Renouf, Dallas and many others. I am sure the number of good signings outweigh the bad.
