Interesting signing .... Wello into the loose forward role then for next season, I wonder ?

Top bracket signing! You won't see many better signings than that from the NRL unless you get a Jamie Lyon or Monaghan situation.

World Cup winner, 4 Nations winner, bags of experiance and will still only be 28 when he arrives as his birthday is April.

He'll play in the halfes IMO.

Ours has played for us for ages

Great singing, quality player. Probably the biggest name who will come over next season.

Brilliant signing. One of my favorite Warriors players. Proper Warriors that is. Can play 1,6,7 or even 9. Just hasn't commanded a first team starting place this season and will do well at Saints. Great attitude too.

http://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/ar ... d=10718761 Here is the NZ Herald Link. I live in NZ and watch NRL every week (particulary the Warriors at Mt.Smart). This signing is mediocre at best. This is not the calibre of player we should be looking at moving forward. I wonder who will be leaving to accomodate. Lance Hohaia was dropped for 2 weeks for his terrible performances. His place has been taken by the FISH who is onhly 18. I can help but think that this may come back to bite us in the future.

Impressed, an excellent balance of class, experience and versatility.

Good work Mac / Royce.

So Stevo was right after all

He's been a very consistent performer on the international scene for a good few years now. I suspect this means that Pryce is either crocked or leaving.

I think he's going to play 7. Pryce and lance hohaia IMO would work very well.

He's the type of player we need. He's only 28 and very experienced. He's been there and don't it.
