Wolves old boys not on way back

FORMER players are unlikely to be on Paul Cullen's radar should he attempt to bring in a short-term signing before the end of the season.

Cullen revealed last week that Wolves, who have lost five players to long-term injuries, have looked into the possibility of making a temporary signing if they lose more three-quarters, although no moves are imminent.

That led to speculation that the likes of Brent Grose and Henry Fa'afili - both released at the end of last season for salary cap reasons - could be lured back.

But Grose made a try-scoring return to the Sydney Roosters first team in the NRL at the weekend.

And Fa'afili, who is now plying his trade with French rugby union club Biarritz, is also not on the agenda.

At Tuesday's weekly Press conference, Paul Cullen said: "The cap's the cap and the reason why Henry left in the first place was because he was getting a king's ransom - and good luck to him - playing in French rugby union."
