Looking at the Warrington departures the one that rings the bell for me is Robbie Mulhern.

From Leeds so local and might be tempted. He's probably on the pricy side but he's only 27. Aways looked good when I've watched him.

May be a WP connection there as well.

Vasty, he is a normy lad ,but has already signed for someone, cant remember who

Don't forget there is a World Cup happening later this year. I would expect WP to be using his connections and to be socialising particularly with the Pacific Island teams. We have a few quota places free and there must be a few as yet unknown young players who would love to play in Superleague and for less money than ageing Australians. And they come from an area where rugby is treated as almost a religion as a sport.

Maybe if we'd gone down. Championship standard as i think this season has proven.

Bit harsh. One player doesn’t make a team.

He’s got pretty good SL stats, makes few errors and always seems to be a threat with ball in hand out wide and difficult to bring down. At only 26 has also got loads left in the tank. Everyone sees different things I suppose…

Correct, one player doesn’t make a team but too many playing at a level that is beyond them makes that team poor. For me he is one of those players. No shame in that at all but he is not a player that improves us which is what we need.

If you want to sign a player from Toulouse then Daniel Alvarro is your man. The ideal replacement for Tini Arona.

Amended list including those we know are going or they may not be announced but everything suggests that are going.

Sorry Scarlett but your saying Evans has signed for 2023 but it’s to be announced? Are you confirming that as I haven’t seen anything regards that.

There’s also Pitts and Adebiyi who are out of contract presently but you have him on your list for 2023? There are options but not sure in who’s favour but presently they aren’t signed up.

Also Croft and Shaw is out of contract so I’m curious why he’s unknown on your list?


Genuine questions or is it your hope that we re-sign them rather than a true to fact list? Or are you confirming they’ve signed with inside knowledge.

Joe Bretherton although I don’t disagree about Daniel Alvaro he’s played well for Toulouse and would be a good signing for Trinity,

I'd take either.

Say what you like about Bretherton, you don't come through Wigans system without having something about you - I know it's a cliche but some props really do develop late.

I think it's fair to say that Toulouse have most certainly not been whipping boys, so some of their players must be pretty darned good, they beat us twice.

No sorry I just don’t know if the club have offered him terms but I do know his contract is up. I know both Pitt’s and Adebiyi have one year options but in whose favour, you would hope it would be the club.
