Well House and M.Monas are going and Simms coming that leaves 2 quota spots open.
Hopefully Asotasi has some honour and goes back. So potentiallly 3 spots open.
Go big and throw a load of money at someone.
Possibly see if Widdop fancies coming back to the UK.

I bet Wayne Bennett doesn't fancy Ben Barba when he goes back to the Broncos....

Let me tell you this about Gareth O'Brien - He was recently offered to Leigh on a permanent basis but his wage demands were too high.

Make of that what you will...

Let me tell you the truth....Gareth hasn't recently been 'offered' to Leigh on a permanent basis...whoever is telling you info is wrong.
Make of that what you will....

Moley went on to confirm it was a halfback and then indicated the player was currently at Melbourne. All aims towards Cronk, been rumours of a move all season initially as our 'marquee' signing if that had been voted in.

Re: Signing a halfback : Wed Aug 20, 2014 6:59 pm  

Cronk...now he's 30, not a big deal there but are QLD and Aus looking to bring through DCE and drop him, if not he's giving up a hell of a lot.

Hell of a signing if true but we'd have to offer him a package that would beat both his current one and one another NRL club would offer, because there are clubs in Aus who would love his services.
