JWH is on over £360k per season in NRL...if you think he is coming to UK for a well over 50% pay cut you're insane or not a serious person.

He will be up with George William as highest paid in SL.

Jwh isn’t on the money you think he is hun, but keep thinking rovers are paying over the odds for him he’s 35 do simple math

My opinion is changing ever so slightly from good to okay signing for big John

Seems Derek knows something we dont

Yeah that worried about to offer him a 2 year deal.

Heard JWH is on minimum wage and gets a flat on Preston Road.

Litrally states in his signing on video that he’s coming over to be with SKD and a new challenge and stated in multiple nrl articles he’ll be taking a massive pay cut

Bet you was buzzing when saints nearly clawed in back first halve

Weird last comment.

I've no doubt he hadn't take a payout, from his 300k a year salary, but he will be on a massive salary SL wise.

I'd love to see those articles which says he took a massive paycut?

He is definitely a good signing, but one we couldn't afford to take, signing a prop at his age, his style (although SL has calmed down) who plays 40 mins a game.

I’m buzzing that we have signed a player who actually knows what is like to win something with a club….still waiting after 40yrs to still that lot from across the river to do it.

If the rumours are true and Holmes has signed on for 2 years than that is woeful

Seem to be they’re focusing on the pack rather than the actual issues of the backs, halves or 9,

French media reporting Abdull has signed on for 2 years with Catalan, only way I can see us getting any decent non quota half is to tempt both Lam’s from Leigh

you could say Lams to the slaughter

Huddersfield are making noises you are trying to sign Adam Milner. Not sure if you have got Lewis Johnson deal over the line. 2 ok signings.
