| He probably turned out the worst. When he was announced it appeared to be a top drawer acquisition. As far as chocking up a quota spot goes, hohaia is an absolute disaster

| Perry, contender for worst Super League signing, let alone Saints.

| Perry was a great signing, it's just turned out terrible.
Lance was signed for no reason that I can see, we didn't need a full back and he's nothing but a stop gap in any other position

Pound for pound its close between Perry and Hohaia but I agree when we signed Perry I was pleased , its a shame that injuries seem to have ruined him, Lance as you say is an average utility player or decent fullback

You can only get what is available. Alas, Luke Walsh wasn't available two years ago. Had he been, we'd have no doubt snapped him up. This year who else has been available other than Luke Walsh? So much about signings is down to the luck of timing.
And besides, with a proper scrum half beside him, Hohaia may turn out to be a decent six.

He didn't with GOB , he's a good player, just not in the position we need him for, like signing thurston as a prop!

GOB is a third choice halfback at Wire with hardly any first team experience and largely unknown ability. How you can compare him with Luke Walsh is beyond me!

| Perry showed some good form in the middle of last season and has simply had his spell with us mostly ruined by fitness/injury otherwise. Hohaia has been mostly fit as a fiddle and been completely terrible regardless. Perry was a great signing when we made him but just hasn't worked out. Hohaia's signing was a head-scratcher right from the very start. It's a no-brainer who the worst signing has been...

You said with a proper scrum half beside him, most saints fans, yourself included said GOB did a good job at 7 for us.
I never said he was as good as Luke Walsh .
Are you saying lance needs an absolute top class 7 before he shows some skills at 6? A good 6 doesn't, rangi chase certainly didn't have a top 7 next to him at cas

Lance needs a top class 7 next to him so he can ride on his coat tails and manage to not look utterly terrible.
