Hope there's some substance in the Cooper Cronk rumour I've heard from a couple of people. One is a Wigan fan who believes a move to us was agreed months ago!

Who did you think we should have signed then and how would you have got them under the salary cap with Briers, Morley, Carvell and Hodgson all on it.

Marty Smith became available and we never went in for him. I would've thought he'd fit into our cap.

Moley says he believes the new signing to be either Scott Durea or Luke Kelly

Scott Durea when did he last play a competitive game, Luke Kelly was one of a number of players told they had an uncertain future. are these the kind of players we want to be aiming for or is it a case of this is best we can do.???

Re: Signing a halfback : Wed Aug 27, 2014 11:50 am  

A fit Dureau would be good. We've already got got better players than Luke Kelly in our ranks.

Re: Signing a halfback : Wed Aug 27, 2014 11:54 am  

Dureau will be alright, he's steady and should be able to lead.

These are only rumours for now though.

Has anyone seen Luke Kelly play?

Re: Signing a halfback : Wed Aug 27, 2014 12:28 pm  

We can forget about players like cronk, top class aussies won't be coming over to super league until koukash gets his way. And british half backs like briers have virtually died out. A fit Scott Dureau would be the best half back in the competition in my opinion and an excellent signing.

I'd be happy if Scott Dureau joined us, if he is fit and in the right condition. He has proved himself in Super League. Luke Kelly - got a good write up in the Aussie Daily Telegraph at the end of last season http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/sport/ ... 6709346232

Yeah, seen him play with the Dubliners not long before he died. Fantastic singer, Raglan Road a particular favourite.
