Dont know, but he is worth it.

Should definately be one of the props for England. Would love him in our Leeds squad. Big impact player. Like Feka but with quality.

Well I guess technically that would be true, as his existing one won't end till 2010.

Martin Offiah once signed a 10 year contract at Widnes with Doug Laughton.

It didn't stop him moving to Wigan a few years later after a lot of squalling to the press about the unfairness of his original deal that no-one had forced him to accept in the first place.

Is that all it takes? Cool.

Best cancel training this week Brian and sit the boys down in front of some videos of the 1982 Kangaroos in that case.

Crabtree doesn't punch his weight often enough and consistently enough to get me drooling like some are.

Decent player though.
