Likes of mullally, d. Bridge, Greg Burke. But pay a fee to get them on proper season long deals so we can plan round them with no recall clauses. We can't settle with players constantly in and out of squad due to being recalled as soon as they've proved their fitness with us.

Mulally is now getting into the Huddersfield setup because of how he performed whilst with us.
Greg Burke is also getting into the Wigan squad because of their current injury crisis.
Bridge has just agreed a deal with Featherstone

Same. We have lacked threat on the left side all season without Sammut and our pack is too weak without Scruton. In my opinion, our two most important players last season.

I know that. But if we'd got proper season long loans, even if it meant paying a fee, they'd be getting into our team due to work we've done with them rather than their parent clubs benefiting. But their just obvious examples anyway, there's players out there if you look hard enough. Impression in getting from green and ferres is their using lack of availability as a cover for lack of investment and their quite happy to rebuild from SL2 next year. Hopefully I'm doing them a massive dis-service and that's not the case but that's my opinion of current situation.

Twitter rumour that Sammutt is wanted at Fev, and with us seemingly signing Tim Smith on loan...you never know.

Re: New Signings : Tue Jun 10, 2014 11:46 am  

So our rivals are making changes to their squads with some season long deals. Do we have anything in the pipeline?

Surely there must be a player who can improve our pack somewhere that we could sign for the remainder of the season? Anyone feel we've hung on waiting for a decision on the points before signing players? Or is there simply no money in the pot for team strengthening other than the odd loanee?

You can forget Scruton and Sammut - Do you really think Wakey will do a favour for their main (only) relegation rival?

Sadly not

Well Kaufusi didn't make the Giants 19 man squad this week! What a waste, he would have made a huge difference to us this week!

Or Mullaley, he'd make a difference as well

Ironic isn't it, massive weekend coming up and Wakey sign a half back with a proven record for them and we lose two of our most effective forwards of late!
