| .. And if he were bought to supplement a quality team he would be an excellent purchase. We have much bigger problems than finding a winger to complement McGillvary. Sort the middle out first before you blow big money on a finisher or you will find he has nothing to finish!
I guess the point i'm trying to make is that i really wanted to see signings , especially big money signings, in areas we are more lacking (halfbacks, prop), than a winger. I will agree that if those areas are covered with players of equivalent quality that it will be a good signing, but if this is our 'marquee' player, it's a waste of cap if he gets the kind of service McGillvary is getting at the moment.

| You’re all forgetting we’ve been lacking in the scoring department this year and personally I think that it’s a great a big name player with a good track record and still got 4 or 5 years left in him

einstien said insanity is when a person does the same thing over and over again but expects a different result: |

| Judging by the quality of Aussie signings over the past few seasons this would be an excellent signing for you there isn't many Ben Barbas coming across and he's only here because of problems back home

he was a fans fave there and still a legend... but shipped out to manly?'" Personality clash, or clash of cultures maybe.
Uate is a very shy and introverted guy who needs a lot of encouragement from a coach. Nathan Brown hates that.

we dont know who is going to be signed yet, this is just one.. give the club a chance! this one is a huge signing and another statement from keb davy that he hasnt given up on the club.

| Really hope we get him, we would be very dangerous down both flanks, just get a half back and then Turner back to centre to feed him. Might be a sign that we are going to play a bit more expansive.
