Matty Bowen back to his best in his teams win against the sharkies. He says now that his future is sorted he can relax and play without any burdens,it showed in today's clash. If he stays fit it will be a great addition to the squad and a player for the youngsters to learn from ,on and off the field.

Bowen is class we need him.

Re: Rumours and signings v9 : Sun Sep 01, 2013 4:54 pm  

Another outstanding performance from Bowen vs the Sharks. He has pretty been the catalyst for the Cowboys run at the Playoffs.

The media now reporting him as the difference between the Cowboys and their opponents in recent weeks, so I assume those making their minds up about him without actually seeing him will now be over the moon about his potential signature.

Re: Rumours and signings v9 : Sun Sep 01, 2013 4:59 pm  

Surely another NRL club will snap him up?

Re: Rumours and signings v9 : Sun Sep 01, 2013 5:06 pm  

He will not play for another NRL club.

We'd still be there or there abouts with that team next year. Bowen Is exact what we need in this young team.

Let's not forget other players have come from the NRL with so called 'shot knees' and played plenty of games. I'm sure we turned down the signing of O'Meley due to reported knee issues?

He's played plenty of matches for Hull FC.

At the end of the day Bowen is a class act both on and off the field. If we manage him correctly he's going to be an asset.

Would anyone else like Wigan to make a move for Dean Collis, I think he looks a very good centre.

I cant say I know much about him, but isn't he the Aussie at Wakefield, I think he still has a further year of a contract.
Knowing Wakefield's financial troubles they may sell, if you think he is up to it Rogues.
