Probably not the most reputable source but RLW's The Mole is reporting that we're close to signing Wigan prop, Gil Dudson.
EXCLUSIVE In THE MOLE in @LeagueWeek today Some GOOD news for poor @TheParraEels fans: club looking to sign @WiganWarriorsRL prop Gil Dudson
Handy player from what I've seen of him.

Haven't we already got a Wigan Prop sitting on the sidelines?
One Lee Mossop, yes.
Dudson is better, IMO, and is in better shape and nick than Mossop.
He got a crook shoulder too?
Not sure if it's the shoulder but he certainly won't be coming to us - if he does - injured, like Mossop did.
More than likely, the club is in damage control so expect a few knee jerk signings
His overall 2014 stats: 2 tries, 232 tackles, 9 missed tackles, 11 tackle breaks, 110 carries, 760m, 6.91m per run, 1 line-break, 4 errors, 1 offload & 9 penalties conceded.
Decent forward and will offer some muscle and power to our pack, IMO. Think he was hit a bit by injury throughout the year but nothing major.
Those figures are terrible for a front row forward, maybe the club are signing him as a translator for Mossop???
If so, we’d have 1 Pom crook by name, and 2 crook by nature.
Thankfully Wiz, it was his father who was the Dud - he’s the son of Dud, so all’s ok.
