Quote: Masked Magician "What stars do they have ?
We have much better stars at Saints, albeit we have nutured our own.
We have the best Scrum Half, Prop and hooker in Super League, jeez we're even playing a full season without a world class New Zealand international. Somebody that will light up Super League next season. Added to Soliola we have also signed Josh Perry and Michael Shenton, Australia and England Internationals.
Just because warington pay silly fees for decent players because they cannot produce their own does not make them super stars.'"
The thing is normally players who come through the system at a club and have affinity for a club are easier and probably cheaper to keep - you can see this at Leeds (Players have been quoted saying they could have elsewhere for more money). Being a club in the mix for honours also help - until the CC last year Dire have stuggled to make an impact for years. As for stars , you maybe dont get what I mean , I dont mean they have all played like stars but have big reps
