You are so quick to hide behind quotas and your mantra of 'there's no one available, wah, wah, wah', when the truth is that players of great quality change clubs every year. Players can also leave, if you put a man in a position where you tell him he's not wanted, he'll more often than not choose to fly home.

The likes of Hardaker, Eden, Broughton, Dixon, Moon, Dureau, Hill, Ratchford and Taylor could all be playing for Saints. It's the club's fault it's recruitment has been so awful.

Imagine:

1 - Hardaker
2 - Broughton
3 - Moon
4 - Ratchford
5 - Dixon
6 - Gaskell
7 - Dureau
8 - Hill
9 - Roby
10 - Puletua
11 - Manu
12 - Soliola
13 - Laffranchi

Pace and individual threat in the backs, creativity and a superb kicking game in the halves, and Hill added to our pack. We'd clean up. None of the above names were out of our reach in terms of signings either, it's just our squad development is done by an investment banker who doesn't have the faintest idea of how to run the on field side of a professional rugby league team.

Although Eamon has worked wonders to stabilise the club's finances and build the stadium, he's also destroyed any chance we had of winning a trophy. It's time for him to step back from the coal face and let someone else have a go, give them the purse strings to make the side successful again and show some ambition again.

Most teams would struggle so badly for field position against that pack and those halves that they wouldn't get chance to even test the defensive line out and even then I don't see any major defensive liabilities in that lineup.

I doubt it. No matter how light on her cloven hooves she was, she wouldn't have won because I'd have dashed out of the crowd and clotheslined the evil, vindictive cow.

You sound like Ed Milliband, ignoring the fact McManus is the most successful chairmen in the superleague era for winning trophies and has made the greatest achievement of securing the future of rugby league in the town.
Unless you have only supported Saints since 2009 then you are totally correct.

It's called bi-polar RLitis bud. Everything it either brilliant or . There is no inbetween. The doctor prescribes reality as its treatment.

There's four or five on the 1 - 7 positions.

Nonsense.

Saddened is on my new Troll Listing, He doesn,t even know that he has selected Dureau who has one of the worse defensive records in superleague around top 5 for missed tackles.

Missed tackles for a scrum half? Who cares? He could do a Longy and defend on the wing.

Dureau isn't as good as you make him out to be, albeit he's an improvement on what we've got (no half backs).

One thing is for sure, Leed's 1-5 are vastly superior to any other in the league.

Potentially, but I think there are a few if's and buts in there.
Hardacre - wait and see
BJB - not sure personally
Moon - could be a top signing
Watkins - good strike centre but not a wingers centre for me and still questions about his defense.
Hall - top class finisher.

One thing they do have there is loads of pace.

I, too, don't see the 'love in' for BJB.

Got bags of pace, but from when I've seen him play he is seems a bit average; albeit bags of pace, but he doesn't strike me as someone who will be a top draw player. I remember him in the GF against us in 2011 and he had a nightmare.

Hardaker and Watkins are the ones that stand out for me (obv Hall does too...) as they have massive potential to be top internationals.

Moon is one that I'm unsure about, not reshould [/ibe playing in the NRL.
