Isn't MoiMoi off contract?

If he is we should really try and sign him

He would be brilliant for us, imagine him and Feka hammering the line for 80 minutes

He may well have problems getting a visa though

He has done 2 prison terms so i doubt very much he would get a visa.

The Aussie press quoted Wigan and Hull in the chase for Orford's signature.
Now Long has signed for Hull that may leave Wigan as the only club looking to sign Orford.
Unless of course he was signed some days ago and Long was informed there was now no deal at Wigan hence he signed for a club the other side of the country.
I'd be very happy with Orford at Wigan!

They've also talked about the Dire as well.

Rather have Lockyer than Orford.

What would you do when Orford goes home in 2 years then?

I'm all for signing him but they need to have a plan for when he leaves in place ASAP

Sign up every promising halfback in the reserves at superleague level and hope one of them comes good to partner Sam Tomkins

Excellent point, we need a 7 now. We cannot miss out on Orford and dismiss it as, well in 2 years we would have been screwed, we are screwed next year without a top drawer halfback.
