I dont have a problem with it. After a month both parties can walk away if it doesnt work out and nobody is out of pocket.
I will be going to watch Workington at Rochdale next month. If they have a decent winger ill give him a lift to Craven Park.

Who would you suggest they look at instead?

At this moment in time nobody.
Fox is just out of form, but in fairness he has receives very little decent ball and defensively has had to endure a poorly structured set up and dreadful defending inside him. On top of this he should be playing on the left side. Colbon is now back to full fitness and it was noticeable how natural playing on the right was to him on Sunday and for me is a must signing for next season providing he stays injury free for the rest of this one. Cockayne and Latus are currently providing cover.
There will be need for cover next season as Cockayne will be getting the No.1 shirt, so as wing cover i would go for someone like Luke George or Aaron Murphy at Wakey, should they get relegated, who both have their best years ahead of them.
Whoi knows they may even bring their current coach with them

Heard you the first time, but decent call though might be a bit pricey. Money is tight at CP these days

There'll be a few clubs in for Murphy and George - and I can see them wanting to be more than cover. You clearly think I'm harping on it, but the pool is shrinking at the moment, so looking at Williams is surely harmless at worst.
Smokey will be pleased, if no-one else. Not the best recommendation - sorry Danny.

Yep. With King rumoured to be going back to the NRL, Wire might want to keep him though. Is he ooc?
My question was stupid though - it isn't an either-or. We can take a look at Williams and keep tabs on other players too.

Today's rumours are KR have sacked Morgan for talking to Wigan...pants I reckon, though I believe that is where he will end up next season.

Worst case scenario we let him go after taking a look. Best case scenario he impresses everybody and earns a deal. He obviously doesnt have a load of clubs after him so he should be hungry.
One thing is for certain, it will put our current wingers on their toes because it clearly shows that Justin is looking for a winger.'"

Rovers wont sack Morgan now. I do expect both parties to reach an amicable agreement regards his departure at the end of the season though with John Kear taking over.
It does make me wonder who is in charge of recruitment for next season though in that scenario. Perhaps if we sign a couple of Wakey players it may give us a clue.

John Kear is one of the nicest men I have encountered in RL.., I also rate him as a coach and I was gutted we sacked him...Top Bloke, I am envious.

Goodness, didn't see that one coming. Not sure about that, quite like him as a bloke, not sure he's the right person to take us forward if this scenario plays out.

According to Wakefield posters that I read a while ago, they reckon he coaches stifingly boring game plans and they have been disgruntled with him. I thought it was surprising, but I'd rather have Morgan than Kear, definately.

TBF though Kear's record of achievements are a lot better than Morgans..Plus I would not take too much about those comments, when we had him we played some fantastic expansive rugby, you have to remember Kear lost Broughy the main game player. With Dobbo & Green I expect Kear will encourage champagne rugby..Plus he is the master at knock out rugby who knows you may get some sliverware in that trophy cabinet

I will 2nd and 3rd these comments BB
He used to give me and my old fella free tickets when he was at Bramley, at the time he lived a few doors from us in Wetherby, top bloke indeed!!
So IF these rumours turned out correct I would be more than happy for him to come in, wonder if I could get some more freebies lol

When we went to Donny for our semi-final C/Cup match my young one and his mates wanted their photos with the coaches etc...We approached and a steward ushered us away, Kear said shut up daft lad and posed with the lads for their photo even though we was then the opposition.

| I like John kear a lot but what I can't get my head around is why would Wigan take on a coach whose team is playing cr@p at the minute, it just doesn't make sense.

Maybe they have taken into account other factors...One thing is for sure Morgan certainly knows how to talk the talk so should have had a cracking interview

| Wouldn't bother me too much TBH, so long as he is replaced with a decent coach. He has been here a long time in coaching terms and perhaps a new challenge would benefit him and Rovers. My only concern is if he came and poached our better players like Newton, Green, Dobbo and the young kids.
