Daniel Coop seems like an interesting recruit let's hope it pays dividends.

Any idea what his position is just out of interest?

Centre, apparently. Controversial move, this, as Uncle Rico assured us that our strawberry blond quota was already full. We must have got a special dispensation!

We're Warrington. We don't care about the strawberry blond quota any more than we care about the salary cap.

However, any quota compliance could be the reason for not signing Livett as rumoured.

Livett isn’t signed, but has been given a chance to earn a deal by getting into shape, on field and off.
He wasn’t released by Huddersfield without reason.
He’s training with the club facilities and involved in some team workouts.

IMO Lees is massively overrated.

Absolutely.
He’s a stone underweight for a big hitter, and is no coincidence Saints are bang average to poor when Alex Warmsley isn’t playing.

He is far from a replacement for Vaughan.
Overrated centre, overrated back rower, and as you said.
If he has put at least 1/2 stone on in the off season, he could make me eat my words.
