100kg I believe

Redvee is In meltdown. It is better than reading the Beano. Saints offered more money so I can only assume that the lure of Wigan is much greater.

I'd have thought he was bigger than that.

Maybe we’ll let them loan him. They only have 3 specialist prop forwards available to start 2024 as things stand, so in an emergency we could maybe help out.

Re: Sam Eseh 2yr deal : Mon Oct 23, 2023 6:09 pm  

That's Thompson, Dupree, Ellis, Byrne, Havard, Cooper, Mago, Hill, Chan and now Eseh. If Owen Farrell comes in as rumoured then there's no space for one of the props to transition to 13. I'm sure players will go out on loan but it sounds like a huge number of players to accommodate going forwards (both on the field and on the salary cap).

He’s a big lad but also very athletic.

He does have a great frame and he’s only 20 so I think he will add mass quite quickly without causing issues with his athletic attributes.

Good to know. I'd like to see another stone or so on him down the line.

He really put himself about against us at home this season. Rattled Isa if I recall correctly.

Pretty much summed up my thoughts on the lad. Very rarely have I seen such a big, young lad put himself about like Eseh did that night. He really did rattle Isa who defo took at second look at him to almost say WTF. If he's got that "nast" in him and we can get him fit, he'll be a top talent imo.

I was slightly gutted at the apparent rumours of him going to Saints, so I'm made up.

Mike "the money" Danson is certainly doing bits. Absolutely love it too.

I love Magic’s response.

He’d be perfect if Bullseye ever made a comeback “this is what you could have won”.
