Well I dreamt last night we signed Matt Orford so you never know!

Well you can sing this to him, if we sign him.

I never had a dream come true, till the day that we signed you. Even though I pretend I can't move on, your still better than deacon. Macca couldn't find the words to say, till he signed a top scrum half today, and regardless of your silky skill, a part of me will always be, with Deacs, with Deacs.

What do you honestly expect him to say about his current employers.

Which would have been even worse as peope would form there own views on why he hasn't said anything.

But we haven't formed views about what the other twenty odd members of the squad "haven't said"

Why jump on a good news story and put a negatvie twist on it?

Because it seems to be just to much of a coincidence. McNamara is under a huge amount of pressure an stories like this keep popping up. It's the same ploy you see in most other sports it's trying to deflect the attention away from the problem.

I can understand your point and I am not naive enough to think there is nothing wrong at all, but surely we all need to try and be a little more positive at times like this and this story gives an element of that. Let's take it at face value and hope the is a large proportion of truth in it.

Get he signed up for next year. The guy is pure class, just watching the replay of last night. He tackled his heart out and raced from the other side of the pitch to deny Mary the try.

Watching him now and taking into consideration he is 35 it makes you wonder what it must have been like 10-15 years ago being able to watch him week in, week out.

The guy has class and even at 35 is probably our best player. He should get into the dream team at the end of the year if he keeps up this form, but will probably miss out as he's not playing one fixed position.

I didn't realise what a fantastic player Steve Menzies was until i saw him in Super League, To have someone of that ability and experience can do wonders for a team and by the looks of it he can do a job where ever he plays...
