Have you seen him play? I agree with most of that but to say he's clever and has a kicking game is very wide of the mark. The biggest fauls we've had this year is a severe lack of brains and any form of kicking game. Our last play options have been almost comical. The key for you will be how he plays alongside Walsh who does have the kicking game and brain. I still think you'd have been better signing a running 6 who could play off the shoulder of walsh.

interesting, who is leaving Saints this season and coming in next season? must be at the cap now.

Laffranchi, Manu, Soliola and Clough for definite. I suspect Wheeler also. In short quite a few big hitters.

We aren't at the cap. We have space for another signing after Burns.

Laffracnhi, Manu, Soliola, Clough and Wheeler leaving.

Vea and Burns coming in so far.

A 6 and a 7 wonders will never cease.

When can we start the scapegoating

Having 2 proper half-backs just feels wrong.

We've only brought in Vea and Burns and have Sia, Manu, laffranchi, clough going. The first 3 are on good money as well.

Easy enough room for another player at least.

Wheeler as well, who was on a decent wedge according to rumour (though not the superstar money laffranchi and Manu supposedly pick up).

Always a good sign when opposition fans start calling for the cap limit!

I know what wheeler on and it's not fantastic

Fair play, I was led to believe he was on an "average sl salary" which is roughly 50k - I will bow to those with greater knowledge on the matter.

Between Clough and Wheeler there should be enough for all the upgrades, which leaves Sia's Manus and Laffranchis left to bring others in. Were shaping up well imo, just need another forward and well be set to go!

The average superleague salary is £62k

He'll be on something close to that next year but with nice appearance bonuses added on.

Any more news on the Turner to NRL rumour?

Good player, should excel in a side with a load of good players. I think our BOD have done the right thing if the 100k is true.
