I can see young Brandon Douglas playing a part in the forwards next season, he is very highly rated,

Burgess been rumoured to be coming here before the Walmsley one reared its head

How would we all feel if it was tom burgess.
He's probably the 3rd best Burgess but still solid. Some good NRL experience and would be an upgrade from a tired Lynch for sure.

Him or Wardle I think and will be happy with either.

Steve gill says that when it's announced people will say 'wow, that's one hell of a signing'. I don't think that would apply to Joe Wardle which to me would be a 'good' signing.
Conundrums like these are what helps the days tick over.
Which English forward would be a hell of a signing ? Walmsley ? Burgess? Graham ? Liam Watts ?.

I'm confident Wardle is one so unless the club has another up their sleeve, I'm going with that.

Wardle and Burgess would do for next season.

Replace lynch with this wow signing. And a other and were good to go in 2018

Remember rhinos in the hayday only brought in 1 new face each year.

I'll put another name out there that might fit the description - Joe Westerman.

Wardle, Westerman or Watts are nowhere close to wow factor.

Wardle & Westerman would be good signings, Watts would be a bit of a disappointment - far too many brain farts in his game.

I seam to remember us being in for Gareth Hock few years ago.
That would be a big wow for all the wrong reasons.

I would take all 3 of them above burgess. He's alright but he seems to either go for one out rugby or have a brain explosion and do the wrong pass. He's the best of the twins if it's George we have signed we have better already.

Aren't opinions funny because I would take Burgess above all 3 of them. Burgess has been a stand out at International level, none of the above 3 have. Burgess got unsettled when there was talk about a move to the NFL. Get him darnt' lane with DP and he will soon be hitting top form again.
