And a soggy rich tea biscuit too.

I heard a couple of days ago that mossop had been asked to consider retiring because of his shoulders. Shame for the lad!

Hope that's not the case for Mossop. If he is able to play on and he was ever available though I think I'd pass tbh because of those injury issues. He's a good player but you can't afford to have a decent earner sat in the stands more often then he plays. It'd have to be some sort of 'pay as you play' deal to make it worth the risk.

Or Weetabix, perhaps? And if so, how many...?

If we were to lose both Charnley & Burgess at the end of next season, I'd be happy with Manfredi on one wing, and I'd have a go at signing George North for the other.

Saw a lad on the U19s Wigan TV, Liam Marshall.
He looked very fast indeed and knew how to finish.
Maybe by 2016 he could be ready for first team rugby!
There could be others better and in front of him I don't know as I dont watch the U19s other than Wigan TV.
Liam Marshall looked very good though!

Isnt that David Marshall's lad?

Re: Rumours and signings v9 : Fri Oct 24, 2014 11:35 am  

George North would be a revelation, get him to bring his mate Alex Cuthbert as well
Sadly, there's a better chance of me winning the grand national dressed as batman than seeing either in cherry and white any time soon! Unless Shaun Edwards could have a word.. .. .. ..

mossop unfortunately not worth the risk. his career will be blighted by these injuries which have been a big part of it so far.

George north is a marquee signing for Northampton in ru so put his salary in excess of 300k id have guessed. dream on.

It is.
His dad is at most of the U19's matches.

If you get a chance watch his try just after half time in the elimination semi final v Saints, it was classic wing play.
