He's about Widnes level IMO

I endorse the views some posters have said about Livett, but from my admittedly limited viewing of Dan Russell, I rate Livett as a superior player player to Russell.

Hope I am proved wrong, but Russell seems to be a complete waste as an Overseas Quota Player signing.

I agree from what limited screen time i've seen of him. So i'm hoping Burgess will be able to click him in to gear, but he's gonna have a very short time to get him going as he still hasn't arrived yet.
But i'll give him time to see what he can do, as he could be a diamond in the rough

Livett is a known quantity at least but it shows how miserable the transfer market is if we are considering re-signing him and have used an overseas quote on Russell.

The Livett rumour has been quashed by the club, according to Matt Turner from the WG.

It seems like it is a moot point based on the Turner tweet.

But sometimes you just need a basic white t-shirt, not a new tuxedo. If we brought in Livett to add to our depth, we could do a lot worse than someone who is from and lives in the town and knows the club.

Seen that. Strange how Livett's dad is still going around telling people he's signing. Bizarre.

I wonder if, say, Wigan would sign him on that basis if he was from Wigan and lived in Wigan?

Also isn't our 'strawberry blonde' quota full?
