Just my opinions unless it's a FACT, in which case it's a fact.

At the end of tonight’s match Carney had said 3 teams rumoured to be in for Holbrook, Us, Leeds and Giants then Giants came out and basically said it’s nonsense.

Just read Saddened's response to my post yesterday and the truth hit me - Saddened is Carney!!!!

I have always liked Crocker. Good goal kicker as well. Fits the bill as a replacement for a Ratchford as he has played all his career on the left.
Not a Jamie Lyon type centre so I could see some comments about him not passing to Ashton.
Surprised he never got a decent shot in the New South Wales side.
He is super fit and he reminds me a bit of Menzies (maybe just the scrum cap) that he could play on forever.

I think Waqua Blake (Eels) and Bradman Best (Knights) are on the move and would be decent options at centre but I would be happy with Crocker. If it is Crocker I just hope fans don't expect the flashy stuff but the things he does do are quality.

Not too bothered about Thompson. Just feels like we would be doing it so that he doesn't go back to Saints.

Jarrod Croker - ultra professional one club man. Outstanding goal kicker. My only concern would be the condition of his shoulder and his left knee.

Not sure he suits the style that Powell has recently suggest he wants. He picked Wrench at centre highlighting that pace in the back was his preference. Croker doesn’t really fit that brief.

That said, appears a good leader. Excellent kicker. Solid defender.

I've played more rugby than this guy in the last 2 years. If this is true and this is what the club has to offer the fans, we are in a real crisis

Is there anything behind this or are we just naming recruitment we wouldn't want?

I'd really hate for us to sign David Kidwell or David Vaealiki to play centre next year.

Just had a text saying Jarrod Croker, he would be 33 when he got here.

If this is true then you can have my season ticket WWRLFC.... What a farce Concussion issues, knackered knees, knackered shoulder, although atm we have a knackered team so may fit the bill, can he play second row?
