Ian, i've already said he's not my cup o tea. I hope this is not the first sparkler.

I believe he's not keen on going to a championship club,and wants SL rugby,but we'll see.

Plenty of time yet Derek, we are not in November yet, last year at this time we had nothing ,could be worse , we could be Fax they are excited about resigning Scott Grix,Jodie Broughton , and possibly Sam Barlow I think Fax could finish bottom of the League this coming season.

Of course Ian. I will wait for as long as it takes,so long as we recruit right players.

So the 5th of November is the date the club have tweeted that we are going to get announcement after announcement all day, remember, remember the 5th of November as we light the fireworks. Can’t wait, Certainly looks like a marketing ploy, and quite a good one at that. Roll on next week.

Played for Scotland a few times, so John Duffy will know what his attributes are.
He plays for one of the 'district' sides in Oz.

Derek, could be the return of Jamie Ellis.

'Nosey' Parker is adamant in RL Weekly, that Jamie is headed back to Leigh. Of course, he could be wrong!

Alan it will be very interesting to see who we sign, but just as interesting who we let go,Pownall apparently retired,I would release Marsh,Brooks Spencer,Andy Thorniley,maybe one of the Adamsons, and Riddy ,a shame really he’s be a very good servant , but we must improve on last seasons position.
For me Toulouse will finish top, Fev will be up there as will York and London,Sheff ,Widnes and Bradford will be threats, the Heavy Wollen teams have recruited well, Haven will be hard to beat, not sure how Oldham and Swinton will fare , I think Fax will struggle, but no Rochdale this coming season.
There will be no room for sentiment, Duffs could be in a make or break season, again only my opinion but the right recruitment and no reason why 2nd spot could be ours.
