If there is spare money available it would be better used bringing homegrown players through. Building younger players and helping them progress to the top flight. Giving one "Super Star" a greatly inflated salary is not going to make the rest of the team also Super stars. Todd Carney being a case in point. Certainly a star player when fit but Catalans also have some very talented players to back him up would he have been a marquee player if he'd waited a couple of years before signing for Dragons? As for signing big names from NRL increasing interest from the general public IMO the general public who aren't interested in RL now will not give flying damn about a big name signing from Aus.
