| Personally I think his experience will be invaluable to the likes of Shackleton and Green

| Quote Nothus="Nothus"Depends what the clubs aspirations are. If we're aiming for mid table then why sign him at all? He won't be cheap.
If we're genuinely aiming for top 4 or promotion them I'm afraid to say I don't think he's good enough.'"
I think even at this stage of his career he's good enough for top 4 of championship. My worry would be injuries given his age. Could see him missing big chunks of season out injured. If he's coming for a reduced wage as mentioned in article then could be a good signing and pass a lot on to Lilley in terms of guile and game management. Article talks about 2 or 3 extra signings for next year on top of retaining this years squad. Given this years squad was already threadbare due to budget RFL agreed to surely they'll allow us a bigger budget next year?. Personally think we're 5 or 6 players off top four quality.

| Either way it’s a strong pointer that somebody is at least planning for the next two years with both Kear and Brough signing two year deals. That alone is a good sign when plenty will be worried given the current crisis

| Happy with this signing. Only downside is how he copes with injuries at 37. But in our position its a good signing and a risk worth taking imho to go along with the kear extension.
As has been said, at least it shows planing and realistic amibition from the club, which is all i can hope for really at the moment.
Plus, we should get plenty of field advantage with the size of the dews pitch and brough's kicking game!

| He apparently has taken a big cut and comes within budget. I don't think Sawyer is a man to throw silly money about. It is probably a good move for both sides as someone else said it may lead to an assistants job for him to be with Kear. The young halves can learn a lot from him and they will still get games when he is rested or injured.
He is getting on but all of our other halves are young so we can carry him. Foxy would had said he is just coming into his prime.

| He reminds me of that Les Dawson joke!
"I'm not saying he's ugly but when he was born instead of slapping him the Midwife slapped his Mother!"

| You don’t think we will see hordes of females with the wobbie style banners return?
Lucky he’s a rugby player and not here for a beauty contest

| His age doesn't worry me. We don't need him doing full length trys. We've been crying out for an old head for years. Look at Scott Murrell at Fax. How many times have we been "old manned" over the years in this league?

I had exactly the same thoughts about him when the signing was announced.

Yeah, agree mate - that's exactly the way to think of it.
