Funny you should say that. I saw him at the BP at Marus Bridge yesterday….

He stopped at Pizza Hut on Robin Park for his tea

Is that the new Frankie & Benny's (RIP)?

Exactly why he wouldn’t play 13 for us.

The positions he has played in Union are fly half and inside centre which are most close to our scrum half and stand off.

Anyone who thinks he’s going to defend in the middle and he taking the ball up is deluded.

He will replace Smithies at loose forward.

Is that based off something you've heard, or what you think?

Fingers crossed it comes off then. I think he'll be great for us.

Made a point of watching the England game to watch Farrell. Have to say, his distribution is outstanding. If he did come here, he would set tonnes of try's up as a ball playing 13.

His distribution is world class, as his kicking both in hand, goal kicks and drop goals. Driven to be the best. An incredible leader. Special, special talent.

With time, and in this Wigan setup, he would go very well.

I would love this to happen. It would send shockwaves through Rugby Union and be a massive boost to our sport. I just can't see it happening though.

I agree with all the above.
