Ah Meli, those were the days of roll a dice catches.
Our current crop can catch a ball but apart from swift we don't seem to cover the distance we should even with vast quantities of space infront of them.

Super league is inferior than the NRL so I think he would do a good job at centre with another signed big winger along side him. We need some very big quality players for centre, wing and prop position.

I'm not disagreeing for the sake of it but if we need a centre, let's sign a centre, not some guy who's played 215 games over 10/11 years in the NRL on the wing. He clearly doesn't have the handling skills or evasiveness, let alone the lateral movement in defence to play centre, exactly the same problem as we saw with Soliola and now Peyroux.

The only way I would be an advocate of this signing is if it meant one of Swift or Makinson to fullback and we were going to use the unreliable Lomax as a utility player. Otherwise it seems an incredibly short term thinking panic buy. I remember at the start of 2014 when Lomax, Makinson and Swift were all fit and were getting praise at how good they were as a back 3. I'm not suggesting any are Ryan Hall types, but I feel this amount of money should be spent on a proper centre, a prop or a hooker.

For some reason Saints seem to be missing out on players like Denny Solomona, again on fire last night.
