| Quote: the flying biscuit "The same Jason Clark who Greg Inglis phoned first in sounding out playing for the Wire because they are good friends.....
Yeah that would be a proper thank you For Clark....
Plus given Inglis's mental issues it would make absolute sense for Inglis to have a close friend in the squad.....
I would be astonished if we off loaded Clark now....'"
Just because he's friends with Inglis and phoned him doesn't mean he deserves a contract, apart from 3 maybe 4 games where he's played really well he's brought nothing more to the table than Matt Davis has. Yet he'll be on a bigger wage and takes up a Quota spot.
Saying you'd be astonished if we let him go now is a bit over the top, he's not exactly the cornerstone of the team and absolutely vital to the squad because in all honesty he isn't.
If he plays really well for the rest of the season then fair enough offer him a new contract but you can't say he's shown anything amazing.
Same with Mamo, he's a good back up option but do we REALLY need him.....no.

The fact that G I is coming says to me Jace future 1 year extension he wanted is already approved.
Most players have an opinion of a years extension within their contract.

| Think you will find that Inglis will be on considerably less than BMM, and isn’t marquee player.

I'm with you on this.
If (and it is an if) this is true, then I'll be appalled. It'll be no more than a babysitting exercise. Clark is another "nothing out of the ordinary" Aussie, to hit these shores.

| We have ages before he gets here, can’t we just enjoy the prospect for as long as possible?

Can you cryptically enlighten us? Sounds interesting!

| Interesting signing.
Will we get a current SOO standard player - no
Will we get a players that is SL standard - yes (most likely)
Will we pay SOO standard money for a one year deal - no
Will we have a player with a big question mark over his fitness - yes
Will we have a player that will help with selling season tickets and sponsorship - yes
Will we have a player that will fill a position that were in need of - no (unless someone is leaving that causes a deficiency somewhere).
Then there's the $64k question of can we get the best out of him, and can he help to get the best out of us?
This is the biggest concern given SP's boring brand of rugby on the whole, and comes down to whether SP is able to make us a more free flowing, ball promoting and expansive rugby team.

| We are in need of centres - the current centre roster is the weakest its been since about 2002.
If we go from:
King
Gelling
Brand
to
Inglis
King
(maybe Gelling)
Brand
it is a major upgrade

If that's the case, I'm surprised that I haven't seen Karl Fitzpatrick on my doorstep with a contract in his hand.

| If a backs roster containing Ratchford, Charnley, Lineham, Austin and Widdop can’t play an entertaining brand under Steve Price, Greg Inglis won’t make a jot of difference.
However, UK rugby league is on its knees right now and I’ll live in hope that we get to see at least a few glimpses of the talent that GI is.

Is this really the only thing you, as a Wire fan, could find to say about this signing?
