I was also using King and Long to show that the superstars do earn big money, not claiming any of ours are that, trying to show a benchmark that some are on more than the SL average but none are minted. People like Wirequin think I am making up the numbers, but it is what I've been told and the numbers look plausible to me, nothing ridiculous.



I get to hear a lot of info, not all of it can be 100% but I do my best to share what I hear for all supporters. The problem I have is that I do not publish my sources any more or state too much as being absolute fact as I was sent a solicitors letter last season from one former player's adviser. I've been more careful since then. What a world we live in eh?

Regarding your alleged signing of Colbon and Cook-



Colbon is a decent winger, not the quickest but he can finish and makes good yards away from his own line. Only small criticism would be that he hasnt quite been back to his best since returning from a jaw injury but i think he'd be a good signing for you in all honesty.



As for Matt Cook, you may or may not know that its somewhat of a joke between rovers fans as to how he never gets picked regardless of how well he plays on rare occasions when selected. He is a good player, but i think some of our fans are a bit OTT with how good he is/how much they think he should play week in week out. I was hoping with a new coach incoming he might stay, but if he does go to you guys i think you will be impressed with his signing

In reply to the OP's question, what if he flashed at a female journo, got soused at a charity event and groped the teenage daughter of an ex-player, chased someone with a bottle before vomiting over them, stole and wrecked a golf cart, held a butter knife to someone's throat and got involved in a mass brawl ending in him being detained by the police?



Mind you, what's not to like about someone nicking a golf cart

I love it when someone claims to have insider sources etc, without naming them, to try and basically over-ride anyone elses opinions. Happening far too much on these forums as of late.

Listy-Its his fertile imagination the absolute bile he spouts that overrides anyone's opinion as you just sit there scratching your head thinking what is he on about.



His second explanations are more confusing than his first offerings. Bemusing

Is that having different opinions, so they must be wrong?



I thought a forum was about different opinions and discussion, what does happen here far too much and not just of late is a few if they disagree, they then feel the need to either personally attack or belittle the person! just accept it would be boring if we all though the same, but remember civility costs nothing.

No, read the post again.

Dave, I have worked in commercial radio all my career and often quoted items of news I had been tipped off about, but I never revealed my sources, except here on Our Club forum when I quote either League Express or League Weekly?



On the West Ham forum it is funny a guy who does come on over again with inside info, but then you find out it was Talk Sport that said it minutes before, but it keeps him off the streets LOL

I am deeply disappointed that we have both a very old decaying team and a novice manager who clearly has no understanding or experience of how to rebuild the club with decent players at the right price.



Many think we are spending nowhere near the salary cap, but actually the truth is we are spending a lot closer to it than people think, we just get very bad value indeed, many regular players playing only two thirds or less of games and then to an ordinary standard.



My sources include very well known supporter close to David Hughes and the family of a current first team member on the signings, which I can PM to anyone whom is trustable enough not to paste them on the boards.



I will speak to the supporter this weekend and ask if he is ok for me to give his name



As for Wire Quin, he is just a guy whom thinks he is funny, and whom isn't a bad bloke in person, but he's one of these people who can't help a sly dig on every posting to the point of obnoxiousness, he doesn't matter to me, but I wish he had a view. It as if 160 characters is his limit. I have grown tired of his infantile jibes and personal comments but funnily enough he doesn't say them, only type them.

Time to lock it Mod..........All getting a bit personal. There are few enough Quins fans as it is without arguing amongst ourselves.



We all want the same, a better team and a bit of success.

Christ, that is disappointing reading, Rinaldi is step backwards, Korkidas and Colborn even more so, average players who won't improve our squad. If they were coming in on top of what we currently have they would add depth, but they won't be, they will be replacements. Matt Cook is a journeyman, a great future behind him, again nothing better than we already have. Don't know much about Chris Armit, solid NRL prop from what I can see, but nothing of any note.

I couldn't agree more.
