Just thought Id share this huge scoop from 'Dan' on the other site.

'apparently, the club are trying to sign forwards and are looking overseas for OOC players.'

Based on Radlinski's contacts book, "overseas" is a player who hasn't played for a club based in a WN postcode.

Imagine letting Rads loose on prop forward recruitment again. He does so much right for this club but I think I’d rather ask Lorraine Kelly if she fancied sorting a couple out.

Moley saying we’ve put in a good offer to Renouf Atoni from the bulldogs, only seen him a few times but looks a good player and runs with some power

Best name ever.

Sounds like a decent offer has been put in and we’re trying to fend off competition from over there. Don’t know a great deal about him but at 6ft 4 and 18 stones he sounds a step in the right direction if we can get it done.

I await Dan on the other site breaking the news asap.

Yep, apparently one of their best this season before injury.

Let’s hope someone actually does a medical on him before we sign him!

Sure has been a miserable year for the dogs.

He’ll fit right in then

Atoni would be a step in the right direction but probably still leaves us needing 2 more props if we sign him if we are to have a balanced prop rotation.

I still think we would require 2 x senior props plus Atoni and Havard to give us a good main rotation of 4 in the starting 17.

We need to get Paul Vaughn over here now.

Just been sacked by St George and has a 12 match ban around his neck.
