I love these announcements, im sat here with my Widnes scarf on signing 'Widnes til i die' with a massive lob on.

Best post I've seen in many a year, superb. I just hope the announcement suits the singing and lob

If Senior is signing Vikingsmurf will be fuming!

Correct, he'll be ripping up tree's once he's back.

I think Coyle could be an excellent option off the bench next year. IF we were to sign Clarke, I think we'd have a really useful combination. Haggerty could be a top forward, happy with that. Not so sure about Allen.

It isnt a myth though is it ? They will improve as players in the full time environment. It is plain and simple to understand if you follow logic.

Full time training will reap benefits for all of those who are currently part timers.

Whether that means they can step up to SL level consistently remains to be seen, however I think some of them, Coyle in particular for this years efforts deserve the shot.

Some will be a success and thrive and others wont make the grade and end up back in part time rugby. I dont see the major issue here in giving some of our own players a chance to better themselves and trying to develop some continuity in the squad.

Full time training doesn't automatically make you a top flight player but you can't be a top flight player without it.

Coyle? Seriously??? I just do not get it. Man is not super league, never will be.

I could'nt agree more sir. He isn't even good enough in this league let alone the super duper league. Heaven help us.

Really? I've seem him slice through plenty of champ defaces and also created a lot of tries from in and around the ruck area.

I often think we look much better when he goes off. Slow, formulaic, I am gutted we're going with him.

Hope I'm proved wrong, but he isn't super league quality for me. No where near. I think we can do better in the championship let alone super league.

Cull was after Mark Bryant I think before Rauhihi extended at Warrington. He would be a great option for you guys.

Re: Announcement coming up at 21:00 tonight : Thu Jul 28, 2011 9:15 pm  

I would look at Ben Flower and Michael Witt.

Re: Announcement coming up at 21:00 tonight : Fri Jul 29, 2011 1:02 pm  

I would do anything for us to sign Witt. I would even eat some lobby with sacrilegeous beetroot in it and then use some as lubrication during the banging of a girl from Featherstone. of course i would then have to shower in bleach before launching myself into the sun..........on a giant nuclear weapon.
but sometimes sacrifices have to be made for the greater good of the viking horde
