where did I ever say it was fact? everything anyone posts on these boards is guesses and opinion at the end of the day. do I have to add IMO to the end of every post to satisfy you?.

Unless I post of course, then it's fact

Stop getting on your high horse you know full well what you were implying so stop trying to twist it around now.

Well, let's look at it from another angle. We have Briggs and Herbert, but the only reason they're not playing is due to short term injury. So REALLY we only need someone to join us for say 6-8 weeks.

What about looking for a loan signing for that period?

yes I know what I was implying and Its still my MY OPINION that its the situation we are in. If you choose to believe otherwise thats your perogative.

At the end of the day none of us KNOW whats going on behind the scenes.

Looking at South Sydney's squad, given what I'm sure is a close relationship given the two players they signed from us

dylan will be the starting along side inglis.....he is actually bigger than i thought at 100kg

Rather than this "right player" crap why can't we just splurge on a big name?

That's what I want to see now thoughtless spending the worst it will ever cost us is four competition points!

Six.

The RFL hate us, remember?

Yep hadn't thought of that.

TBH, if we're going to have Herbert and Briggs back by the end of next month, there's not a huge point in going for a new player. Any new player that comes in now, will take longer to settle into the side as just about everyone else has been with the squad for the last 3/4 months. If it was a prop, or maybe a centre/wing then yeah, you could pretty much drop them into the side. But bringing in someone who's in charge of organising the side and leading them round the park? That's a tough ask as they won't really know their team mates, they won't know the calls, so it'll take them maybe a month to get up to speed. By which time we should have Herbert and Briggs fit and ready

Untill there injured again

I don't think one being injured is an issue. When Kearney plays alongside a proper half, he does a good job there. It's just when he's playing alongside another "makeshift" half that he struggles a little as he appears to have too much to do.

If one of Herbert or Briggs could play at 7 with Kearney at 6, I think that would be fine. The real problems arise when both Herb and Briggs are out, which is just bad luck and what we have now.
