Dean Hadley when he signs which i expect he will

Hope your right. Think he would do a good job there

I
I like Hadley but I just don't see him in a starting 13. Fantastic squad player but just don't feel he is good enough to be played in a starting 13. I do see what people are win him and as a local lad would love him to prove me wrong but I just can't see it.

Manu Ma’u listed as Parramatta's 13 this week, he could play there if he signs.

Had our best two seasons with a non ball playing in Ellis etc playing there. I expect we will go the same way next season looking at how we are recruiting.

Hopefully if we don't sign Mellor we will keep Hadley.

When is next signing day, been awesome so far.

Think we'll sign 2 more back rows and savelio will play 13

As much as I liked Fonau he served a purpose and did a job at the time that brought much longed for success. For me Faraimo is no less a player than Mahe and has proven to be an asset but for some reason doesn’t get the credit he deserves. Whilst he is not blessed with out and out pace neither was Mahe but Faraimo seems a much fitter and adaptable player. He also takes a lot of stopping.

Mellor to Rovers

I watched to replay of the match at Warrington
Hadley MOM for me

Ligi Sao has signed I've heard, but Samson prop currently at NZ Warriors.

26, but not played too many games, reckon Tony has some influence in this signing.

Good write up on Ligi Sao here.... https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/league/wa ... r-warriors

just fought his way into the Warriors 1st team - played really well against the Dragons at their Magic weekend

… apparently, he needs to play 19 NRL games this season to get a work permit in the UK.

Sounds a bit unlikely.

Can’t see NZW getting to the 2nd week of the finals.

I trust my source.usually spot on.

I'm not sure that's true either, both Leeds and Wakey recent signings only played around 11 games last season.

Even Hastings played about 12 games the season he signed before he signed for Salford

If that's the case what about Jackson Hastings last year and that chap Leeds have just signed.

… the ruling is (supposed to be) 50% of games over the last 2 seasons, and international matches also have a bearing on the outcome.

Hastings played 28 NRL games in 2016/17 and the start of 2018, but certainly didn't play 50% of games in the last 24 months of his contract (which was terminated in June 201icon_cool.gif. Maybe they use a Duckworth Lewis Method to overcome any shortfall in games.

He should have played most of their games the last 18 months but Kearney was too stubborn to pick him as he wasn't one of his favourites. He'd be a very good signing imo, has a massive engine

Hastings has an English parent I believe in which case he probably has access to a British passport

Another one for the list

Does this mean kane evans wont be signing?

Some quality names linked which is great.

Anyone else heard Jordan Thompson and Brad fash to rovers on loan?

Heard something about Thompson. Heard it was a permanent deal though.
Not sure why he was re-signed to be honest. We’ve only used him begrudgingly this year.

Reading the NRL forums he is highly rated and can play LF as well as prop Maybe a replacement for Westerman? Hope you are right Dave. Hopefully WiIdie is correct about Thompson as well. The only player we are linked with who is not rated is Evans.

I'll do a pie chart, that'll convince them.
