No chance.

If we are going to be going after him then we may as well punt for Thurston.

Cayless would be ideal for a prop. Now than box is ticked we need a 7.

And yes I have to agree with Boris I have no idea where we're gonna get our 7 from. I suspect Matthew Head or Brett Finch.

Everybody keeps going on about him me included but personally would still love to get Myler in at 7 with Tomkins at 6, although we would have to make sure we looked after myler defensively, sure Gleeson would be up to the task. And the front row like we all now would have to be improved because there's know way to young lads are gonna be able to do a damn thing behind a beaten pack every week.
Just think a stable 6 and 7 that could grow together over the years that would get the continuity in the team that saints and leeds already have.
It could be a blessing in disguise that all the other halfbacks are being snapped up so that hopefully it will force Lenegan to take note of Myler and put in an offer.

If we're gonna go 'all out' for someone, I'd sooner it be Dobson.

Just think we've got a better chance at getting Myler than Dobson after all Dobson's only just signed a new deal whereby Myler's nearing the end of his, plus Charriot's as Myler's agent might just swing the luck in are favour rather than Warrington's. Can't see Myler wanting to play for Wire when the lads from Widnes specially if he's got the choice to come to Wigan rather Wire.

Maybe the England coach having a word in his ear, might sway him Wire's way??...

You what! when he's got the option to play under such a great and attack minded coach in Noble I don't think so.

Couldn't agree more, all out for Myler as I've said many times before. Him and Tomkins are a hit for the future without a doubt. You pointed out his problem at Salford down to a tee, the pack don't defence him, but with us, out pack has a great defence.

Personally I don't think we have a chance with most HB's and SH's mentioned on here from Oz. We have a slight chance at signing Orford, but we'll have to pay big.

On the FB front that I mention, a player that won't cost the world and in my opinion IS better then any of our current FB attempts his Fitzpatrick from Salford, he were linked with him end of last year weren't we?

Prop I always though we'd sign Lynch or Cayless, no to Lynch so Cayless it probably will be. Good solid hard working prop, settled in the UK, no rosk of him becoming upset and wanting to leave mid-season, and with Family links, we may even get his brother Another year of course
