Good steady player, good enough to be at a top club, not at all.

Agree with that. says it all though about our options in the halves again that I would still be pleased if we sign him though.

Carvell a different cup of tea. Still top class and will make a huge difference to our pack and go-forward. The only concern would be the balance of the front row if we do sign him as we will have quite some size and go-forward but we wont be able to rely on big minutes from either Carvell, Paea or Feka so a big decision on who is fourth prop as they will likely have to spend a lot of time out there.

Carvell would be an asset to any superleague club.

Green. Also as long as the substitutions are done correctly, it won't be a concern.

Hopefully the deal will go through soon, so that he cam play on Friday.

Just looked at Gale and Miller stats from last season, millers are much better in the attacking sense.

Story in HDM tomorrow. Hopefully some facts, not just stuff taken from here.

Keith Mason rumour discussed by Smailes. Him + Carvell would be a calendar upgrade for sure.

Your not so bad yourself.

Rumour now about Keith mason, smiles thinks it might happen.

Not sure he is needed or good enough.

If Carvell signs we have feka, Paea, Bowden, Carvell and Green.

Also BTW.

Carvell is a good player, still has it and I was hugely surprised he was allowed to leave Warrington, especially as they have had many ageing players in their squad over recent years. I think FC are pretty weak up front but this signing will certainly address that.
