We just don't learn.

Fair play to the club for communicating to the fans which is what everyone is asking for, but I personally would rather them wait and announce the signings than announce we have agreed terms to then have to announce the player has buggered off to another club

Lets hust hope Hull KR don't get wind of who it is as they must be able to squeeze another Aussie in there somewhere. So long as this player has a relative who left for the colonies on a convict ship 200 years ago, they will be able to wangle a visa for him!

I would guess its two players on the fringes of their current squads either here or in Australia.

Stuart Howarth???

Just released by Wakefield

Think Stu Howarth is on his way to you. If correct you have got a real good lad, a player with tons of potential, a great attitude , a leader and a very good RL player. I think you will like him always gives 100%, a product of the Wigan youth teams so has been well trained.

could be any of -

Bradford Bulls - Gareth Raynor
Catalan Dragons - Sebastien Martins
Crusaders RL - Andy Bracek, Ben Flower (Wigan/Huddersfield), Gil Dudson (Wigan), Peter Lupton, Lee Williams, Jamie Murphy, Jordan Tansey.
Huddersfield Giants - Gregg McNally
Hull FC - Ewan Dowes (Wakefield), Cameron Phelps, Mike Burnett, Martin Gleeson.
Hull Kingston Rovers - Ben Fisher.
Leeds Rhinos - Keith Senior, Michael Coady, Rory Kettlewell.
London Broncos RL - Mark Calderwood.
Salford City Reds - Rob Parker.
Wakefield Wildcats - Semi Tadulala, Kevin Henderson, Josh Veivers, Stuart Howarth, Jeremy Smith, Kevin Penny.
Warrington Wolves - Lee Mitchell.
Wigan Warriors - Karl Pryce.

And I reckon the Aus player may be Sika Manu.

The club have stated that the UK based player is a forward in his early to mid twenties, so from the above list that leaves; Gil Dudson (21), Stuart Howarth (21), Mike Burnett (23), Lee Mitchell (23), Andy Bracek (24), and Ben Flower (24).

Would love it to be Sika Manu

If they have any sense they'll snap him up. Creative player with bags of potential. He won't cost a great deal, not impressed Agars given him the elbow for Washbrook!

They've just announced the signing of an Australian fullback from Newcastle - Shannon McDonnell - so would expect that's the end of their overseas recruitment for this year. Though you never know

After thinking about it. It can't be Sika Manu, the official site says that Millward met with the player whilst in Australia. Sika has been over in the UK for the past few weeks whilst Basil has been in Aus
