You have signed him on loan to the end of the season should get released today, lee briers and Ben harrison confirmed on twitter and a few people congratulating gaz and he's thanking them hope he does well for you

Good move I suppose, although I think we'd all rather see what Danny Yates could do for us.

What? Saints use their own halfbacks? Never! We just dispatch them to other clubs!

How dare we shield some kids that are deemed to not be ready yet and risk exposing more kids too soon. Give it up

It reads on the Warrington Guardian that he's joined on a months loan and not as the OP has quoted as "Until the end of season".
He's a good player Gareth and you will see the benefit in your results immediately.

Saints have just confirmed the signing, a month's loan with immediate effect. I'm not sure whether this will help us or hinder us as we have had so much disruption this season that adding a brand new player to the team just as we are meeting up with Hudds who trounced us last time out may well be asking a lot of O'Brien and the team.

I hope he's been on the tackle bags. When I saw him play for Swinton he was poor in defence on the line!

Except I wasn't talking about our under 19s. I was talking about the Saints raised halfbacks we have scattered around the Superleague. I think it speaks to our poor retention that we have been left with no option but to beg off our near neighbours.

Good short term fix, what we need for now and it's good for all involved
