Best of luck Jammer, you'll kill 'em.

Good to see Saints are already picking out some top replacements, just a shame Big Red won't get to lead us out at our new home

One or two thinly veiled digs at Kyle here!!

One of the best props I have ever seen at Saints. He's gonna become a huge name over there.

Best of luck James!

All the best to James.. Hes a big loss for you guys but I think we all knew it was coming as he wanted to test himself over there.

My Saints supporting mate isnt sure about weather he is good enough to play over there, but I think he will continue to be one of if not thee best prop in the world over there.

A truly World Class Prop Forward who has given everything for Saints in the 7 full seasons he has played for Saints. I wish James all the very best of luck with the Bulldogs and boy I hope he grabs this chance with both hands. Legend.

What a load of complete and utter b******s!!!

Alright, Alright calm down.

Best of luck to him

Absolutely devastated it's finally been confirmed, even though we've all known for a few weeks / months now.

He is a Saints legend in my eyes, definitely one of the best and most committed players I've seen in the Red Vee in my 19 years of watching Saints. If everyone played with his passion and ability we'd be unstoppable. He runs his blood to water every week, always plays to a high standard and his leadership, work rate, experience and ability will be badly missed.

James, you're a Saints legend and I wish you every success in the NRL. I may even watch the NRL more next season to see how he's getting on.

It's a tough task to replace him and I hope we find a top class replacement because that is exactly what is required. It's even more imperative we try and re-sign TP too, otherwise we've got a very tough task on our hands.

Best of luck to you, big man.

Bulldogs thrilled to sign James.

Thinly veiled? i don't think so.

He doesnt mince his words does he?

Best of luck to him - can't help but think I (even as a St Helens lad) would make the same decision in his position.

If he gives the same commitment to the Bulldogs as he has to Saints, they've signed a world class prop.

He's a mard booty but there's no doubting his quality, you can't replace him, you can get a decent forward but i guarantee he won't be as good as the BGB.
With Tony P going too it looks like a big off season recruitment drive for the Red V.

Im sure he will prove himself as one of the best in the world over there, be great for him to come back in 3 years, but im sure he will stay for longer.
good luck to him. absolutely top player

Well said Blobs. Disappointed to see him go but he's done everything over here so I can't blame him for wanting to try his hand in the best competition in the world. I wish The Big Red Machine every success.

The ozzie press will have a nightmare, how can they put down all british players when Jammer will be ripping them to pieces every week, they'll probably discover he has a long lost ozzie ancestor

British Bulldog

Well we all knew it was coming but does not soften the impact especially after that awesome performance at Wigan.

Good luck to the lad, lets hope the McMannus has a few irons in the fire. Probably will not be a like for like replacement, but so long as they can opperate at half jammers capacity we will continue to be a force.

I still hold out hope for TP resigning.

Nice to see the support



Justin Poore from Parra looks a good option.

Your thoughts.

How are you going to replace that guy, he is one hell of a player....

Wonder if his hairdresser knows she won't need to do his highlights for 3 years.

Good luck to him, has been an excellent servant to the club and I ope we do all we can to get him back at the end of his 3 years

It sounds as though he was determined to go and try his hand in the NRL, so there's little you could do to stop his departure. What intrigues me is how you'll replace him or, probably won't. With the ever increasing NRL salary cap, plus the strong dollar to pound exchange rate tempting the very best NRL players to SL is getting increasingly difficult. Particularly when they'll also have to give up their representative career and SOO football to come over here.

As for Graham it will make him a better player IMO. Playing in competitive games week in week out won't do anything other than. I know Sam Tomkins only just signed a new 5 year deal last year, but come the end of that when he will be truly in his prime. I'd fully support him if it was his wish to play in the NRL. By then he'll have given Wigan many good years of service, just like Graham has for you guy's.
