If we didn't make a marquee signing in Super League, what makes you think they'll be one now?

My neighbour has a big marquee & a little marquee in his back yard. I wouldnt expect a Sonny Boy signing but would like someone who would get you out of your seat. Whether it is someone huge like Dave King or tackle machine like Craig Taylor.

With regard to last year, have we lost more money by being relegated than we might have had to invest in a top player or 2, given the leveling down in quality of the bottom third of Super League?

Sad losing another talented youngster in Kai today to Wigan, which has been on the cards for a while! i wonder if we got any fee, is it not time that Any Super League Club player that sign a player from The Championship, be they out of contract or not should have to pay a set reasonable fee to truly compensate for the development of that player? How many youngsters must Wigan produce?

Now that's something that's bugged me for years, the club just doesn't communicate well at all. Right now we don't know about the squad, during the season we never know about injuries - players just disappear without a word until we spot them on crutches or whatever. It's no way to run a club.

Spot on

It's Big Dave's way to run a club.

Unless we pick up a few loanees we'll probably have to blood a few of our young 'uns. They've certainly got the skill.
With the number of players gone I'm not optimistic about promotion next year so let them have a learning opportunity which could stand them in good stead for a push for SL in two years time.

Im hoping we might pick up 1 or 2 queensland/nsw cup rough diamonds to polish

I do hope you are right.

We need something, a couple more experienced heads would help.
