I'd be willing to give Sao one more chance under a new coach. He was effective for Samoa in their run to the World Cup Final so it can be done

only because of the quality of players around him when playing for Samoa
He was played in the second row due to Samoas injuries which is not his best position
Needs to be played as an out an out front row not second row one week and front row the next.
He has brain farts but a lot of players do and personally think his indiscipline was more out of frustration getting tonked every week by most other teams.

Bullock signed a new deal at Warrington ealier this year, although he has been out on loan at Salford.

Bullock is available.

He had a "Fall-Out" with Matty Russell on a night out that Russell instigated and both were loaned out immediately.

Neither have played for Warrington since then.

Russell ' s contract expires at the end of the season so there could be a way back for Bullock, if Sam Burgess allows him but I doubt it.

I see Cas are now after Asi.
Are they after signing everyone we were linked with?
It'll be nice to see how Asi and Rimbu go in SL and did we make the right choice in not pursuing them and acquire better options?

Haven't heard of Cade Cust being confirmed ?? We were trying to get him in early but that never happened, only game he played was when 13 were rested.

Just wonder if there is a problem ? Either injury wise or we have moved on to other targets ?

Fit Cade Cust a real asset, BUT we are still lacking in several other positions.

Even if didn't sign (I'm sure he has), but we would still need another pivot player, someone who could play halfback and hooker IMO.

I think we have gone for the safe options, players that Cartwright knows and ones who have played at a good level and have performed in the past.

Rimba and Asi (less so) would have been a bit too risky for us. We needed experience.

Sao and Lane have to move on please
Sao is just past it and Lane can rip it up at Batley
