Top signing is Joe.
So that leaves 2 to go, or is it 3!?

So combining the 2 tweets from TGC Liam Whitton wasn’t part of the big ten but Joe Arundel was with 4 still to come including Juffret which leaves 3 that doesn’t include Douglas who is now not coming which he knew before the 4 was mentioned but said after we had made our 7th big ten signing.
I mean what could be clearer

Yep that about covers it

I guess we’ll just have to see , bit disappointed about the Douglas one but we’ll just have to see who else is coming , quite funny how everyone’s been investing in next season because of the proposed 2 leagues of ten then the rfl turn around and say we’re not doing that till 2023

There's nowt funny about that. It could put some clubs in serious financial jeopardy if they haven't done their sums right. Another typical rugby league cock up! It's never ending.

Re: Today's Signing : Fri Nov 05, 2021 9:27 am  

I’ll take a guess at deciphering it all to be 3 more to come in with one of them being an alternative to Douglas who we wanted but couldn’t get over the line for whatever reason.

Still no news on the future of Robinson which can’t be far from breaking.

Funny, definitely not but it’s just an expression of speech as in funny peculiar as opposed to funny hilarious.
On the one hand we call for ambition then on the other worry about the consequences when the spending goes up.
In any case, regardless of the make up of the comp if any club can’t calculate the implications and goes for boom or bust when there is just one place up for grabs with the history of how that can work out, the history of how SL and the RFL can change the rules at a minutes notice and the strength of the opposition then there’s only themselves to blame.
