Quote PopTart="PopTart"I agree actually Musson.
I don't actually want to see an established NRL player. The "Established" that we can afford would really mean "has been" "free rider"
What we need in my opinion is someone who is young and keen, but has experience of running a team, just at the lower level from NRL.
Ironically Isaac John fitted the bill for me but it didn't quite work out
Captained the lower level NZ side and was successful but not yet established in the main team. So did Godinet, though neither quite hit the mark completely.
Both were nearly there and Godinet was a great player, but not quite the half back general we need.
Something like them at the next stage along would work for me. Maybe an NRL player blocked by a star wanting a shot.'"
I call that prime Wakey lol its really hard for us but some one wanting to prove a point often works for us and that exactly what we need
I really liked Godinet too, I was gutted he went, was good to see him in the Samoan team last week, I thought he was a better hooker though, although I've being nothing but pleased at how Moore has played for us (another player with point to prove)
Isaac John, i think reading about him after he left he was really unhappy over here, some OS players just can't adapt to being so far away from home and it shows on the pitch, clearly the guy has talent,
JK will be involved in the new player process which really excites me
I'm just glad we are playing so well TBH plus things FINALLY seem to have really settled down for us off the pitch too, its a great time to be a wakey fan
We just need the crowds up now, i was gutted more stay away fans didn't see they wire match!
