If Feka gets sent down then i think there will be another signing in the pipeline.

What about this mystery player that so fooled mano? Perhaps that one is still in the works.

Heard were still looking at a prop

But i cant see how

[standishwarrior]

iv heard were after a young lad from barrow. between us and bradford. wigan have offered him a contract but bulls offered more money.oh carmonts due in wigan on the 27th!

is there no way we can squeeze one more prop under the salary cap - even a big tank type of a player from national league one - he wouldn't need to play a lot of game time but options to rotate with Fielden or give Coley a change to play in second row.
If we don;t sign someone until februay then they would only count on the cap from that point.

If we have to declare cap spending plans - surely they should be published before the start of the season so all fans can see.

Well I eared today that the deal for price is a good one for us and him he gets more or less what he was on in RU however we have paid a fee which in effect allows
the ru to pay is contract in part us paying the remainder a smart bit of business which keeps us away from the cap and also could leave a little for another signing (prop) we will see ?

I don't understand what you chaps fail to understand about IL's recent statement that we've already got more than enough props.

Note, I'm not saying I agree with that, but I think it's safe to conclude from those words that, if we bring someone else in, it won't be a prop.

Do we think we have enough props?

Most sides have four front line props - plus a second row who can be pushed up as a fifth option.

We have three front line props - and two young developing kids as back up - and no second row can be viewed as a prop - unlike last season where we had fletcher.
We are lightweight in the second row - not on numbers but on size.
A new prop would allow coley to be given spells in the second row

I would think with the case hanging over Fekka IL would have lined up or at least made inquiries for a front row ,if he had a prop lined up with all this going on he would probably not be able to mention it.

When he first came on board he said we have only £140grand to spend 2 signings a back and a forward, well 3 signings later all backs and £170 grand to spend , why say thats probably our last signing and not thats it? .
Things can change not that I'm complaining he has done very well with little to spend just posting what I got told only time will tell maybe it is wishful thinking this team is probably one class front row away from having a real chance and may go close any way
