IMHO (Vastman quote) he hasn't got a question (FWIW another Vastman quote) he jumps on other peoples quotes to try to make them look small. (FWIW) you've all cottoned on to him now as you can see in some of your replies (FWIW). Just write your own drivel Vastman & let people say what they want to say (IMHO) this would make the forum a lot better. I'm not saying don't put your point across but (IMHO) there's no need for the stuff you come out with (FWIW)

Quote: vastman "You'd think that was patently obvious and thus doesn't require a question. Still, it's a free country and if people wish to ask pointless questions then fine. FWIW I'll tell you what I think happened and I'm 99.9% sure I'm right. Saints were interested in Murphy from the moment he burst on the scene, and it was no secret that they wanted him. No surprise, he has Saints player written all over him. However, Murph decided that Easts was where he wanted to go. Unperturbed, Saints probably gave him the option that should it not work out in Oz they would take him in a heartbeat, and probably offered him a draft contract. Something I seriously doubt Carter was able to do, or does that need explaining as well. Move one year forward and it's not really worked out for Lewis, all the same he's not disgraced himself and he will have learned a lot, so his value has not diminished. So, why would his agent even bother shopping him around. He has a deal at Saints waiting and ready. Despite a bit of a lull over the last year or so, Saints remain along with Wigan the two premier clubs in SL, almost guaranteeing some medals. It's the perfect storm. Even if he had been put on the open market, why would he be interested in us? We may be on a bit of a roll right now but we ain't Saints, not even close. Likewise I suspect that Saints, who are a smart club, will have made it very clear that the offer was take it or leave it and that they wouldn't enter a bidding war. So I doubt Murphy was shopped around anyway, it was as they say, a done deal. If you need someone else to tell you all that, then you need to concentrate harder or be less naive. Sure I've just burst a dozen egos, but it just seems so obvious to me.'" If you listen to Craig Harrison on Matt Shaws House of League podcast 4th Sept, he explains, why saints.

I just presumed, with it being a subscription thing.

My Q
Is your system patented ?

My question and I understand that names can't be mentioned, but:

Are any of our signings super league dependent. Should we not be in the 12, even though we all suspect we will be. How many of the new players will not come and is there a plan to replace them as we may have some holes to fill. I understand this is quite a negative question, but it would be reassuring to know we have a plan b, players wise.
