| Quote Exeter Rhino="Exeter Rhino"I thought 'project signings' were a red line for some posters in judging the quality of our recruitment?
It's okay though, we're getting into the 'optimistic' stage of the annual Leed Rhinos cycle. Most new signings are assumed to be significant upgrades at this point in the year (Frawley aside).
Expectation is gradually rebuilding itself, but is there really more of a sound basis than in the past? If you are a glass half full person these look like promising signings (as we were assured Momirovski was by the NRL experts last year). But there is an obvious element of risk if deficiencies like form, past injuries and level of experience are not adequately addressed. Maybe we are expecting Arthur to do more with 'projects' than Smith, which may be fair, but ultimately this could still be Achurch & Vuniyayawa Mk2. Same goes for 'Jake the Snake' if he signs.'"
Totally agree.
All signings from down under are a risk.
Momirovski and Tetevano were both high quality, high pedigree signings on paper.
Doesn't always work out.
And then some people call it awful recruitment.

They are two big bodies, thats already an upgeade from last season.
I wouldn’t class palasia as a project signing either

Vuniyayawa did well for Salford after he left us.

Sangare is a big body but that's all I can say in his favour.

And there’s gonna be a good few Rhinos “rejects” picking up either winners or losers rings at Old Trafford on Saturday.

| I was told last night that Holroyd could be done and may not play again.
Not definitive yet but on the cards

Interesting, Blease did say last night that having Gannon and Holroyd back will be like two new signings, ad that he tried to sign Holroyd at Salford a couple of times!
