Tough. Conversations develop. It's their nature.

Little Pepe went to nursery school one day wearing his Widnes hat. His teacher asked him why he was a Widnes fan. He said, “Because my parents are.” His teacher said, “That’s not good. What would you do if your parents were drug dealers and hookers?” He replied, “Well then I would be a Warrington fan.”

There's a Wooly over there, baggy kecks and feathered hair
with a 3 star jumper half way up his back, that’s a fecking Wooly back!

Oooh-to… Oooh-to-be… Oooh-to-be-a… WOOLY!

At the end of the day Webb would be a great signing, I can see reasons for playing him in the half's, it's essential that we get a good 7 though if that's the case.


What might these reasons be, VM?

As far as I can see, he's never played there, or not at any pro level for any length of time. Remember how James Ford (a centre) was unveiled as our main fullback and was going to be a star?

Do you remember what happened to Thacks (a Stand Off) when they played him at Fullback?

It seems to me, if we are going to play Brent Webb at Stand Off, we'll end up paying a massive chunk of the salary cap on yet another white elephant. I just hope that, whoever wrote the article stating that we planed to play Webb in the halves, is wrong. If we want Webb, he should should be a fullback. If we want a stand off then buy one. If we can't find one, use one of our youngsters alongside a good scrum half or put I'Anson there. We have loved up big time pissing about with playing people out of position in the past few years.

You've got to be joking?

No half decent player will want to sign for a club which is already booked in for last position in Super League for the next 3 years.


I had to eat at 'Jungle Jim's' in Blackpool Tower because of you, Brucey. I see you I kiiiiiill you! :twisted:

I believe the bald guy Leeds had as coach previously was stating that Webb wanted a go at stand off and Cullen stated he has great hands but has never been used in that position (Boots n all) and he reckons it would suit his game more as he's very agile on his feet. I agree we need to get the correct players in playing in the right positions but IMO he might be worth a shot.

your welcome to shoot me down. :wink:

Anyways Thomas Bosc will be our new 6

I heard that he fancied himself as a Prop Forward, so we’ll be playing him there.

Someone on the TIW forum mentioned it, in an off-hand manner. Which would suggest that it is Bullshit.

Ah, I've not been on twitter for a while, as I tweeted mysen out. So, why would we want to play Webb at stand off, if we are going to sign Bosc?

All these loving rumours are driving me mad! :DOH:
