Do you understand the meaning of the word "meaningless?"

David Mead is not meaningless. He is an excellent rugby league player with blinding speed. He will cause damage to opposing defences, including your club's if it is even in Super League.

I voted for Rockford Hampshire but it's not registered.

A good player he may be and if he signed for a good team he could be in the running for best signing. But he hasn't, he's signed for Catalans so it's meaningless.

And yet we need them?

POLL not working....

Neither does Cappy's brain........Oops sorry,what brain?

Isn't for me either.

But he's right, there is something wrong with this signing - there is no reason for a player of his standing to leave the NRL for SL unless he's crocked/has issues/or wants to retire.

It's two early to tell.

But in terms of potential few can seriously argue against Pauli Pauli. It's a big gamble but boy if it pays off he will tear SL apart.

6'5" 20 stone but fast and athletic with a good off loading game - if Saints had signed him certain VT regulars and Jurnoes would be wetting themselves.

He's a gamble but then arn't they all.

Dan Sarginson's still showing zero votes but i'm not sure if the poll isn't working or just that he's cr4p

Leeds have signed themselves a similar massive prop from the NRL who is a gamble but has potential in Peteru and people haven't been "wetting themselves" so don't always play the chip on the shoulder routine.

Unless time travel has become available I couldn't possibly say.

Anyhow who's going to start my favorite thread, the league position conundrum.

I'll go first - Wakefield to finish bottom, again & again &.......

POLL isn 't working for me either.

It seems to be working for some but not for others.

[sizeMODERATORS please fix the poll so we can all vote.[/size

There are probably four good reasons why David Mead has signed with Catalans:

1. He wants to play full back, and he has not had a lock on that position in his former clubs, who played him mostly on the wing (he is very fast) ;
2. He wants to play for a club which has a future in Super League;
3. Catalans probably offered him more money than star studded Brisbane was able to pay him;
4. He wants to learn about French culture.
