Burns worth a punt for the rest of the year?

If we had to ask the RFL for dispensation to play Jack Wells or we would've broken the salary cap, surely there's no space to bring an extra player in?

We made an offer for Ferres though.Seems a strange situation,I also thought that either Wane or IL said we had room to make a signing during the season if required?

I heard we were planning to defer their salary payments until next year and pay them minimum wage for this season.

Wouldn't apply. Loaded contracts are fine for any club and common place certainly in the NRL if not over here as well. The 'spirit of the cap' thing related to Wigan renegotiating existing contracts to pay less in the current year and more in subsiquent seasons.

Gareth I'm queasy watching us currently. The thought of Burns added to the mix makes me shudder :D
If he could play half as good as he thinks he can fight he would be a world beater.

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid.
Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal.
Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.

Re: Rumours and signings v9 : Tue Apr 12, 2016 6:45 pm  
I think the rumours and signings thread can include coaches.

Ill put it out there, seeing as our attack is woeful how would people feel about getting one of the best organising half backs in recent time to be our assistant coach taking control of our attack?

Adrian Lam wouldn't be a bad bet, thoughts?

Re: Rumours and signings v9 : Tue Apr 12, 2016 6:57 pm  
It was interesting to read Tony Smith today stating how he's changed his opinion that coaches have a shelf life at a club and how bringing in new support staff to work with his really rejuvenated him at Wire. I've been concerned for a while that whenever coaches leave we just seem to shuffle everyone up one. It's good to have confidence in your way of working and in your current staff but sometimes I just feel you need fresh ideas.

I also don't like it when I hear that guys like Joel Tomkins and Lockers are producing video clips for training and doing some coaching with the first team. They're big players for us and they need to put all their efforts in to the playing side of things IMO. There's no issue with them working with juniors for me but you shouldn't be marking yours and your classmates homework!

Perhaps our half back issue could be solved

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-league/36033267

or more likely not!
