I like ginger knacks, or I have done when I've seen him play. That said not seen much for couple a years but he was a good prospect a few years back.
Is he any better than what we have, Blythe, Purtell, Nielsen? He would be ideal to come in and put some pressure on our other centres but didn't he sign a five year deal at KR when he was highly thought of?
Probably on a good whack and wants to find something similar.
I'd say he's no better than what we have, to be honest. You can also add in Walshaw as a centre too, though we'll presumably be losing Phillipe-Baile, Adam Henry, Ryan Shaw and Chev Walker, all occasional centres, so much of the 'depth' will be gone.
I think we've clearly yet to see the best from Nielson though, whilst he's been 'steady' he's not looked like the State of Origin player he was. In terms of Welham, it depends on lots of things, in particular which division we're going to be in, whether Jimmy feels we need more depth and who else might be available, though for my money, whichever division, I feel we need to concentrate on more quality than depth. We definitely went too far on depth this year with a number of players not even getting a game and I'm not sure we can really afford to that again..
