If I'd have included the full quote, The J Man was referring to a SO in that line. I just trimmed it down. But yes, I did mean a 6. And yes, I can see how it looked otherwise
I can see us not getting a half at all yet and perservering with either Kearney, Addy or Southernwood in the halves (or perhaps one of the hookers playing there). Perhaps the targeted half hasn't worked out and there's just no-one good enough available. Probably better to play with a makeshift rather than sign someone who's not good enough just for the sake of getting a specialisted half back. Better to leave the room on the cap and then if someone becomes available later, there's more opportunity to get him?
