He's the reason I said you have to be cautious with World Cup form!

didn't we sign Eddie P off the back of a WC campaign? he turned out to be anything but a star player in my opinion. i'd much rather we stuck closer to home and targetted players we know much more about - not that I don't appreciate there have been some stand out performers in this WC who I've actually never heard of before!

No. We'd already signed him.

Blake Green has signed for the Warriors!!

Unfortunately, the New Zealand Warriors.

Fallout from Cooper Cronk moving to the Roosters who have released Mitchell Pearce to go to Manly, thus making Blake surplus to requirements. So he moves to that graveyard of ambitions - The Warriors.

A 3 year contract for 31 year old Blake Green. Absolutely can't blame him tbf

Im really shocked they haven't reached out to Madge. NZW have one hell of squad, but an awful culture. That's perfect for Madge imo as he'd bring discipline and structure.

I agree. They've had a hell of a squad for a number of years and been able to attract really top class players. They are a shockingly under performing side.

Pauli Pauli has signed for Wakey! He is absolutely huge and could be a great acquisition if he can get fit. 1 year deal with option of 2nd year. With Fafita as well, they have some big bodies!
