Tickle is a good, proven SL player and maybe is seen as a replacement for Maitua next season? Should prove a useful addition.

Not entirely sure back row is where we need to strengthen right now though. Would like an outside back first. Higson and Worthington are in great form but Armstrong and Kay have been a bit hit and miss all season.

A top class winger/centre would be my priority.

Or Jarryd Hayne obviously

Talk about let down don't get me wrong Danny tickle has been a good un but do we really need him or is he another coming for a last big pay day.

Maitua needs replacing for next season, so we needed someone!

Yes I agree but let's see which league we are playing in . He's not sl standard now or he would be playing for cas. If we get up then we may be able to get better players in.

That's always been the problem with promotion in RL. By the time you know you've got promoted, the best players have signed for someone else

He has been playing for us and doing well.
Interesting how everyone moaned about Wakefield signing players just before the middle 8s last year though - how many is that Leigh have signed in the last few weeks?

I agree entirely.
Though unfortunately the SL teams in the middle 8s this year are better than the ones in the middle 8s last year.
That said, one SL team has to either be relegated or in the million pound game. My money is on a Hull KR v Leigh 'final'.

Well Nobody thought Leigh would finish bottom of the middle 8s last year, so owt can happen.

Spencer out. Tickle in.
Not sure that's an improvement.
