Quote Mrs Barista="Mrs Barista"It's easy to criticise, less so to come up with a credible list. TBF to Jake, he did (eventually) provide a list of signings we might have made in the offseason to mitigate the halfback problem we have, but this is a tough question.
Who would we be happy with as a non-crocked scrum half next season? Can be quota, as we'll have space I'd imagine. Should we go for a marquee signing?'"
It's a stupid question to ask though isn't it? It's like me ringing agar up and asking him a complex question about my tax return and then claiming he's somehow deficient because he doesn't know the answer. People always come up with that question in the belief that it somehow proves that the club can do no more in their player search. If I were in the situation where I was signing players on behalf of a SL club then I'd be able to answer it but as I'm not, I can't
What I would be doing is looking for 2 half backs in their early 20's who show some promise, who have a low propensity to injuries to date, and who will sign for the club for 3 years. People make this big thing about how hard it is to sign half backs yet pretty much every other club in SL sign them. crusaders even managed to find 3 in a few months with no cash.
The real issue here is that we have a chief exec who has no real knowledge of the game or contacts in the world of RL, and a coach who seems to have no contacts either.
Don't even consider joking about such things.
