Quote: Captain Hook "Seems that we were one of 2 teams making serious play for Barba. So Saints had something more to offer, whether it was more money or a connection with their new coach and therefore won out.
I suspect Saints were more desperate than we were. Their support has been extremely disappointed in the team, their style and (up until recently) their coach for much longer than the Wire support. The Boards concern was undoubtedly that gates were suffering and therefore were prepared to offer more than us on what is basically a throw of the dice.
What are the odds on a player who has left in disgrace settling in? The only one I can think of was Joel Monaghan and he had the support of his brother AND his problem was not drug related. Look how long it often takes players who chose to leave the NRL to settle in.
Don't get me wrong I would have enjoyed the excitement of seeing Barba in the P n B but I won't be losing sleep over his non signing (just yet).'"
What about Jamie Lyon ? I think looking your only looking at Wire signings
