Quote: Dave K. "Releasing Hoy and Brown with a replacement line up was madness, we would have been a lot better with those two player the last few weeks than what we have. This has happened a few times with Connor and Evans (and in some respect Sneyd).
As for our signings confirmed and rumored, all seem to be gambles, I'm not sure as a club right now we can afford gambles, we did that this year with Ock, Pele and Brown and it backfired massivley.
We have to make sure that the 3/4 overseas players we sign are of really good quality.
Said last night and I stick by it, we can't have the likes of Pele as a quota player playing 20 minutes or so. Would be happy to have 5 new quota players along with Asista and Ese Ese.'"
It's always hard though Dave signing players from the NRL, even the really good quality players you say you need aren't guaranteed to settle or be that good,
Look at us at Rovers when we signed Vete, Sims and Takairangi, they all should have been top quality players BUT.....
Asiata is a great signing as he's over here, he's settled in, and he's proven his quality and you know he's not going home after a few months because he's lonely.
