This might not be far off the mark from what i heard this Morning .. Apparently our new signing could be a guy Called Joel Romelo according to a mate of mine .. Melbourne storm reserve grader .. He plays he plays 6 , 7 , 9 or 13 ... so not an out and out Halfback .

24 first grade games in 5 years - good job he's got Italian ancestry..............

I love it when the Warrington Wolves Serious Rumour Squad are on the case. The 'inside information' and speculation are intriguing. Particularly as the club are so parsimonious with the information that they put out officially.

It's difficult to get any player related information from the club. Apparently they are currently denying that Roy Asotasi is playing for them.

History doesnt look good for Romelo sacked from 3 clubs. Makes Carney look like a good option

Re: Signing a halfback : Thu Aug 21, 2014 4:19 pm  

Jarrod Mullen is an option. Gone a bit stagnant at Newcastle, not in origin or test contention and the 'knight in shining armour' coach, excuse the pun, couldn't even get them close to a Premiership.

Money man is gone, Boyd will more than likely follow Bennett, Mason is on his last legs as is Gidley.

Time for him to jump ship?

That's where I know the name from.

I have every faith in the clubs decision making and concur with the idea that with Briers untimely exit it caught us out a bit with potential successors not really filling the role vacated. Yes Bridgey has made a good fist of it but I would prefer a dyed in the wool halfback and him back in the centre. It is imperative that we sign a halfback who is a general and guides the team around the park not a halfback better suited for the hooking role ala Sullivan and Monas.

Everyone is just guessing but it doesn't take Mystic Meg to work out that a replacement for Briers was lined up for 2015.

I just hope they got a training reference from Moving On before penning the deal.
