He makes Rich Whiting look like Jai Field!

You make him sound like a ball handling prop!

I’m sure every team is shaking in their boots at the thought of a Cust/abdull/sezer combination in the halves.

He's built like one, might as well play to his strengths

I'm desperately trying to add some levity!

That would be the seismic tremors as Abdull takes the line on

how to rip any signs of optimism away in 7 or 8 poor signings

Once Bonaire finds out he'll be like that football fan in Ripping Yarns.

Have faith the recruitment hasn't been finalised yet........

on paper, if everything clicks then I'd agree. In reality,

asiata getting more injuries and bans,
cust, always injured,
abdul unfit and gets injured a lot when he does play,
sezer - best form 4+ years ago. Will be 34 next year
hardaker - too slow for FB, average at best in the centre

Add in

Burough - promising youngster who can't get a game at salford, hasn't shone while out on loan in the championship
chamberlain - slow and average
Briscoe, old slow and past his best
holmes - not wanted at wire, can't get a game at leigh

It really is scraping the bottom of the barrel and if the club are expecting a crop of youngsters to come through and pick up the baton in 2 or 3 years time then experience shows it's unlikely to happen

you mean it could get worse?

Bang on the money.

Impossible.

If it’s a 2 or 3 year deal for Sezer it would also stifle our recruitment for the year after. Isn’t our only quota player on an 18 month Cartwright? He actually looks good so we’ll likely extend him at some point you’d imagine.

Really mixed thoughts on Sezer he was in the man of steel running at Huddersfield but then awful at Leeds...but then again we are desperate and a perfect choice not going to happen

Sezer is a starting NRL half (albeit in not a great team) but he's far and away better than anything we've been linked with aside from Lam, he's got a decent injury record, knows super league and the English lifestyle and I don't imagine he'd be on marquee money
