Yeah I also think our expectations have been lowered over the years so a steady/solid performer is a world away from some of the dross. Let's not forget though that prior had a big chunk of time being ineffective.

I don’t expect us to sign Ali or Superman, but a Kylie, Frogger or Scotty Donald are all still very possible.

Perhaps I miss read it, thought the post said the only ‘Very effective SL player we’ve signed from overseas in years is Martin’

I think the issue is closer to the statement you’ve made, in the ones with brought in haven’t had that whole team impact, with the possible exception of Rob Lui, although granted he wasn’t directly from the NRL.

Most of the big signings haven’t worked out. Prior did for a while, same with Hurrell. Annoyingly Lolohea worked out but not for us. We’ve not really took a gamble on a ‘Kylie Type’ recently, with the possible exception of King, who annoyingly has proved to be someone else’s gain.

Our senior recruitment simply hasn’t been as good as the top sides for an eternity.

Our eggs are definitely in the youth basket but hopefully we can move forward now the nucleus of a decent side is there.

King vunywhatshisname didn’t get enough time ditto Jack Ormandroyd,Dupree, Trout,looking like Walters is going the same way.

Who's the next Gun from the academy? If there's some quality coming through you've got question the most recent signings.

While I can see your point on some of them, it’s worth pointing out the majority of those were under the old regime.

you cant win, i want results and i want them now. Why are we not letting the youth play and develop but throw teddies out with every loss. rinse and repeat.
Finding it very difficult to keep a straight face reading a lot of the BS on here these days

King and Oramdroyd were slated every week on here, for not been good enough for Leeds.
You cant keep hold of young players forever, Dupree had to go to the Championship to mature, Trout has done ok, nothing special.

They always have something to moan about.

Looks a decent championship pack that…..

None are in the championship though are they......
