Quote: John Gilbert Reds "Still unsure on Moi Moi. It all depends on whether Mozza does another year, we cant have two 35+ year old props.'"
Very unsure about Moi Moi. For me, one of the problems with signing players at the end of their career - no matter how good they are - is that you're forced back on to the market a year or two later to look for replacements. One of the reasons I couldn't see much sense in the Morley signing is that it was always likely that we'd lose Shannan McP this year when he comes to the end of his non-fed exemption period. So, if Morley just does his one year, we end up on the market for two props. If Morley stays on, it just defers the problem until next year as I suspect Tony Puletua will retire then. If Morley retires and we replace him with Moi Moi, we'll likely have the same problem.
I think we need to be looking at younger players. But not in a Jimmy Savile way.
