Re: Recruitment rumours and links : Sun Aug 27, 2023 2:39 pm  
- We are looking at a few centres, but no one has signed yet. Hopefully something will happen this week. But the aim is to bring in 2. I'm still waiting for confirmation on what the intention is with Matautia.

- Jordy Crowther has already signed for Castleford for next season. But a solution is being worked on by the club and his agent to keep him at Warrington. This is what Chambers was alluding to when he was asked about him in an interview last week.

- We've offered the permanent Assistant position to Martin Gleeson, but he's turned it down. He was considering taking up the position but was told he won't be allowed to return to Union in the future. So as it stands he's taking up a position with Seattle RU next season. The search goes on.

- The intention of bringing Dwyer back to the club has been shelved. I've read a few times that he'd already signed, which I also thought was the case. But it's not true. I'm sure i'll get more details on why/what. As it stands the interchange hooking role will be Ratchford's.

Sitting on the naughty step
Signature
Just my opinions unless it's a FACT, in which case it's a fact.

I've been told we're looking to bring in 2 centres. I'm not sure if that includes King, or where that leaves Wrench ?

We got VERY close to bringing in a centre a couple of weeks ago, who would have taken on the goal kicking, on a short term deal until the end of this season which would have been the clubs biggest named signing since Johns. It would have really boosted the game as a whole. The player can't be named on here though.

I was hoping Bradman Best, but Newcastle's league position suggests this wouldn't happen.

I think it must have been a big name international player, from a team unlikely to make the NRL playoffs. Maybe a centre who rounds up sheep on his horse, and his birthday is believed to be Feb the 14th :D

I should point out that this is typical Warrington, and we would have fallen flat on our face. And made us more of a laughing stock. So I'm sort of glad he didn't come as a gimmick. I can't imagine he'd be that committed to the cause.

Aussie Telegraph has all but confirmed Morgan Harper for 2024. As someone who follows NRL and Manly in particular, it’s a signing that does come with an element of risk. He has flashes of being a very useful player and at only 24 he’s got his best years ahead of him. However (and it is a big however), his defence leaves a lot to be desired. Often gets caught out of position and seems to grab at attackers


Like for like replacement for Mata'utia, then. What's not to like? :)

Am I getting warm with Rumpo Kid Valentine? You're reminding me of Ted Rogers, and I have the feeling that the real answer could be a canteen of cutlery.

It would be a major concern freezing Connor wrench out as he would be picked up by sts or Wigan and put into their playing squad for almost immediate use because they could and would use his potential
