A young Wigan fullback, Matty Russell, has just signed with the Tits. He has Sam Tompkins ahead of him at Wigan. He's also played centre/wing.

Might of been him?

Mmmmmmm and here I was thinking they were in financial trouble. Must be false reporting.

Didn't Wright play just about every game for us this year?

I'd be surprised if he was left out in the cold.

I reckon he will be, we have signed, J Wright, Gordon and Ryan to play in the outside backs, doesnt leave much room for him IMO.

f**k that is depressing, cant believe we were so desperate that we signed some of those blokes, a bunch of nuffies, Cuthbertson, T Smith, Tautai.

Times have changed.

They can still spend their cap though. The kid they have signed is basically on spec. 20 years old. Only 2 SL games this year. Wouldn't of cost much. Had a year to go on his Wigan contract but had a get out clause - so no transfer fee.

That's not to say this kid is who fizman was referring to. I have no idea who that is

I'll predict that he will play 5/8 in reggies to get up to speed. Just like this year when he was dropped and spent the whole time in reggies at fullback before taking over when Garz got busted.

Need a backup 6 in case Carney gets hurt, doesn't start the year, makes rep teams etc. I suppose Graham is the logical choice there but he will be a big chance at SOO as well next year, notwithstanding the idiot coaching NSW

Matt Wright has played 6 before... that makes sense.

I think the big loser out of this is Ricky. He was coming along really well and looked like a genuine centre prospect. Will be a shame if he isnt given a chance.

I think Lootelly will get his chances. I can see Pom spending some time as a wide running 2RF.
