Phil wilkinson on twitter just said we're eyeing a Wakefield player for next year.

I hope it's Kirmond, but I don't know really. Apparently story is in observer today.

Cant see it being anyone else from Wakefield

I wonder if it's that centre. Dean Collis. Can't say I think we need him with Gelling, Sarg, Goulding and Thornley, but you never know with the rumours that Goulding is off to HKR

What about the other young centre Walshaw? Fits Wanes requirements, big and athletic.

Heard from a good source that taylor has signed a extention with you and he laughed off the hull rumours

The player your chasing from Wakefield is Taulima Tauati.

Tautai it is and when I watched them and Bradford early in the season he was the worst player on the pitch. Hopefully nothing comes of it IMO

Averages over 120 metres a game and 25 tackles, but gives a few penalties.

Tautai has that X factor that we lack in our second row. He offers something different than what he currently have. Gets through a tin if work, big aggressive runner. On the downside he is probe to a brainfart as most of this type of offloading player tends to do.

Personally I think it's an odd one because he is very much like Pettybourne and potentially better suited to Prop. If there is nobody else available he would do a job for us but personally I would prefer Vae from London who offers the same but I am guessing without looking at the stats less errors.

Presumably further evidence that the return of Joel is a no go

After me questioning signings like Clubb last off season I'll trust Wanes judgement on any player. If the lad from Wakey is good enough for Wane and his staff that'll do for me.

He's certainly got some size. If he's got the application/want to do well then Wigan will get it out of him.
