When the origin of these players is downgrading then what do you expect to happen with the cast offs?

rl"Stand by your man... doo doo doo... and tell the world you love him..."rl

I forgot about cross. Is he still over here?

How old was he when you signed him?

Sarcasm noted.



Marginally older than the topping-up pensioner from the NRL your mob have signed today for next season and beyond.

Well done.

It's just I've not noticed him when I've seen Leeds play.

That peacock must be knocking on a little now and not to mention the oldest man in super league that's trying to still play centre for you men.

What has Steve Menzies got to do with this?

Ok the 2nd oldest

How come you haven't noticed? I've noticed his over-active forearm if not much else.



I appreciate you're in desperate need for someone on this forum to say [i"Hey, well done Saints, great player, great signing"[/i but I can't. I'm as underwhelmed as I was when Leeds announced the signings of Weller Hauraki and Ben Cross. I'm just thankful that GH didn't underwhelm me three times on the trot, so your mob are welcome to him.

Saints and Leeds have a lot in common... two clubs on the gradual slide over the past few seasons with little sign from either of arresting that gradual slide. Signings like Cross and Laffranchi merely emphasise the point.

I'm afraid we're both gonna have to get used to Wigan copping for the important silverware for a while yet.

That's one thing Leeds and Saints don't have in common. Leeds may be on the slide but Saints most definitely aren't.

Ahh the deluded one is here.

Hi SaintsFan.

Why is it every time Saints sign a player there is a thread on here about it? And its always the same...why didn't we go for him

I agree with you. If either team is on the slide it aint Saints. Lomax and Wheeler look to be halting that slide with a few other playing in recent weeks that are ones for the future. Your recruitment has been very impressive...hence the reason why the Leeds fans make there own threads about them.

Ask her again now that he's signed for Saints and she has to live near St. Helens!

No Graham, no Puletua, no Flannery. Wellens a year older and slower.

They may have kids coming through, but none of them are in the positions they are going to be weakened in for 2012.

Unless they sign another couple of quality forwards from somewhere those talented young outside backs are going to be operating on the back foot for most of next year at least.

Saints have said they are in talks with 2/3 players they want to bring in for 2012.

To be honest I don't think saints will be on the slide like some people suggest. We've got some very good young lads coming thru and looking to bring in some experience to get the balance of youth and old correct.
