Yes, no, maybe. I don't know, can you repeat the question?

He's going home, we offered him a 2 year deal before Minichello signed.

We shouldn't have let him go when we did (and I know the club tried very hard to keep him) but we shouldn't have him back now.

Terrific player for FC but one of the few we let go at the right time. Has done very little for Saints over the past 2 years - and yes I know he will be playing in the 2014 Grand Final.

Best wishes Willie for the future.

That was a stupid trick if true and whoever made that offer needs a slap. We shouldn't have even been considering it, let alone making an offer.

Have we learned nothing from the last few years?

Absolutely. We must not let our best players go at the peak of their career and then re-sign them when they are past it.

sorry, but how was he at "the peak" of his career, he did nothing at Saints, so we let him go at "the sunset" of his career, surely?

In answer to the original question, no.

Great player but we and he have moved on.

If we can get him on a cheap deal, why not? Bit more strength in depth, a good professional to be around the young players.

He's not at his peak anymore, but certainly has rugby left in him.

So the sock fest continues, so far this last week we've had:

Manu is ok for some, not too old, but too old for others
Pryce not too old
Tahu is not too old

Moi Moi IS too old for some


FFS why are we even considering anyone over 32.

We should have got out of this when Uncle Kath did one. The days of 2 year deals for 32 and 33 year old should be long dead.
