Byrne is a positive signing for you.

He’s huge, has a big engine (can play 60+ minutes).

Aggressive (sometimes too much).

Held his own against Fisher Harris and Leota in the WCC.

Won’t give you too much with the ball but a very good defender.

He’s 10 times the player Bullock is.

He becomes a starter for you instantly.

If Wigan weren’t in an insanely good position with props they’d be keeping him. As has been pointed out there will be another gem in the academy on low wages who will be promoted.

Byrne will be on a good salary as non-quota props are hot commodities.

Few whispers round Hull that you're looking at Deon Cross from Salford. Anyone heard anything?

Deon Cross is a good player but we have adequate cover already for the positions he can play IMHO. https://www.warringtonguardian.co.uk/sp ... ent-update
