Quote: alegend "Not a case of i would have signed, we have the so called best set of Coaches to do that , Some of the signings seem to be players who can play in so called different position not a master of one position . When I read, can play centre or 2nd row to me it means lacks speed to hold a back position down .We have brought in some players in who have moved a round from club to club ,that means not good enough to hold a position down at a club Think 5 players have come to the club injured..Just got to laugh when I read we will finish in top 6 top 8 .Remember we have 3 marque players in the squad .Just think by the look of the squad fans are expecting to much for the first season back in S L when we have just come up from the Championship As said will be happy if we are out of bottom 2 Next season is when we have got to get it right'"
I don't see that at all, everyone has their preferred position but a number can play another and for one reason or another, they end up there. Most of the games great SL players have been able to play numerous positions, like Big Sam, to Sinfield, Sculthorpe, McGuire etc, to guys like Peacock and Morley, moving from 2nd row to prop. Just because teams have moved players around, that's mostly been down to injuries and squad sizes, nothing about their disadvantages as a player,. If anything it makes them more valuable.
So we've brought in TJ, McMeekan, Russell, Stourton, Trueman, Seth Nikotemo, Rourke. M Russell, Hall .
Out of those who has moved around from club to club? Most have made just one or two moves in their careers, Cam Scott has spent his whole career at Hull and is 25, Olly Russell has also spent his whole career at the Giants and is 26, Trueman has been at 2 clubs and is 26, Rourke has been at 2 clubs and is 25, Matty Stourton has been at 2 clubs but mainly at Hull KR and is 25, Seth Nikotemo is 20 and came from the Gold Coast Titans. Mike McMeekan has played at 3 teams and is 30, Tom Johnstone if you need telling has played for us and Catalans. Corey Hall, you could say has had a few teams for being 22, but he was good with us as a 19/20 year old and got behind a better player at Hull KR when he moved and now he's back. The only guy who's had plenty of teams is Matty Russell but he is 31 and coming to play backup winger, but he's got over 200 first-class games, including a stint in the NRL.
Seriously, I don't understand your point of view most of the time, even leaving opinions to one side.
Also, name the 3 Marque players please.
