Quote: rubber duckie "We should put our threshold at 31 years max at time of first season.
Haven't the club learnt ewt?
Haven't we as fans learnt ewt?
No disrespect to Gallen or Asotasi excellent NRL history and ability...
But we've seen with Big Roy his late hemisphere development issues, fitness problems and the cost to settle him and his family here, plus saturating his bank account.
IMO Gallen, absolutely not. Trust in our development of youth or if we have to buy, then get an asset not an ageing gamble.'"
That's against the law but I take your point.
Quite apart from the fact that your plan is unlawful, have an arbitrary age cut off would prevent us from signing the likes of Andrew Johns or, say, an Allan Langer or a Cooper Cronk. You can't judge all 31 plus year olds because Roy Asotasi hasn't lived up to expectations. Well, you can, but it's a bad idea.
