Quote: The Chair Maker "Talk of top line aussie half backs coming to SL is fantasy la la land stuff.
Discounting the 3 game European holiday of Andrew Johns, i can only think of Trent Barrett who came over in 2007 who was not of pensionable age.
Hence i think we would need to discount a signing of anyone under 30 years of age.
The main factor why they wont come over anymore is that there isnt the money in Britain compared to Australia.'"
I wouldn't rule out a top quality replacement coming here. Saints are a big attraction and if the alleged offer of £250,000 a year to Eastmond is true (as reported in one of the papers) then we certainly have some money to throw about.
