What do you mean! We've just signed a championship player on loan for up to 4 months. Next you'll be expecting us to go out and sign fully fledged super league players, or maybe even an NRL player!
I agree, the lack of investment in appalling. Have we out all of our golden nuggets into the stadium? Be a shame to have a shiny new stadium and only 5000 people in it.

icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.:icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg |

Josh Drinkwater & Kenny Edwards have turned Catalans season around single handedly.
Joe Greenwood signed for Wigan and could be over here by next week apparently, that was a bitter blow to us.
Jackson Hastings about to sign for Huddersfield Giants for this season, yet another player that would have turned our game around.

Its not just about signing mid season, who did we sign in the close season that would have kept us at the level we were, let along help us to push on?

We signed Peteru wh has hardly played and Myler who up until getting injured has been excellent, the thing is if we had signed some NRL players there would have been calls of why aren't we giving the kids a chance wouldn't there.
Not replacing Galloway was a massive mistake by the club and should quite rightly be crtiticised - on the flip side would Oledski be getting the game time he is if we had signed an average NRL prop?

If he's close to coming back then releasing him would be madness, at the end of the season maybe.

Totally agree about myler, been impressed with him. Hard to judge peteru.
The kids aren't good enough but agree, some would call for that regardless.
But did we really think myler and a prop few had heard of was going to be enough to keep us standing still, let alone progressing? Recruitment has been naive at best.

You are being totally harsh on the Kids, I ask you what do you expect from them coming into a depleted team lacking confidence? we have lost by a point 4 times this season, they are doing well considering. Walker is in his first full year and the theres have hardly payed SL before.
I agree I dot think we recruited as well as we should have, we should have replaced Galloway but in a salary capped sport we can't just go out and sign a load of players just incase we get a big injury list.
As I say look at Wigan last year, challenge cup final loss and finishing 7th, that could very well the exact same as us this year. Pretty much the same wigan team this year without all the injuries and they in 2nd.
