Certainly not a 35 year old playing for an underperforming club.

Every NRL player who we sign I always check out the clubs fans forum. I have never seen such an outpouring of disappointment over a player is leaving.

After reading all these comments it's obvious that despite his age he is a high quality player and should excel in Super League. Having said that is it really the best use of the final quota place?

Time will tell.

Cust is the random use of a quota spot, don't sign him and sign a decent NRL centre and we are looking in a much better position.

It's vital we sign a quality centre. You can't expect Rapana to transfer there at this stage of his career.

Going with Hardaker and Chamberlain just isn't good enough. But like you state who?

I'd only let Sao go if we can replace like for like otherwise our pack will be weakened.

Recruitment wise I feel slightly more optimistic than yesterday but we definitely have to find another centre and probably another forward.

I'm bewildered by his signing. A utility is not the best use of a quota spot although he's not really a hooker. A utility could have easily been filled domestically.

The ideal scenario would have been keeping Reynolds as a back up half and as you say sign an NRL centre.

We are joint bottom and recruitment is poor again after several seasons of misery, sorry for not licking the clubs backside. I see no improvement next year.

If we really have sone cash, I'd like to see us go and out try tempt a young centre from another club with a big wage increase. Other than that, maybe someone like Connor Wrench.

Or bring the snake back.

if its true about rapana,its one hell of a signing.im not surprised canberra fans are upset.he ll certainly rally the troops.excellant signing.

It's just a case of steadying the ship next season . I don't think we will be as bad as this sh17show of a season either .

We will see……we aren’t a good sell and we have to get what we can….every club goes through it…..Warrington was nearly relegated and look at them and you could argue there recruitment wasn’t massively impressive barring dufty.

I hope we do improve, it’s what we all want but after years of abject failure and just constantly getting decision after decision wrong, I just can’t bring myself to being optimistic

Best post of the last couple of days

Wasn’t our very first target under Myler to bring in a centre? Perham I think was in talks. Since then we’ve probably had about 6 months of non stop searching and about 4 quota spots open at one stage and we’ve not managed to bring in a specialist centre. I’m pretty sure that says there’s nobody in our price range available so I doubt we’ll be suddenly paying off Sao or anyone else to create a quota spot to bring in a centre.

I get the impression he’ll be going but I really hope we keep Walker. Even if the plan is for Rapana at fullback I think Walker has the skills to be a decent centre.

Davidson linking us with a super league half back, but don’t know if it’s just Cust but it’s behind a pay wall.

Fages was rumoured earlier this week
