a 1 year deal gives him the chance to put him self in the shop window too like Shannon McDonnell did with Rovers.

Another good signing our recruitment of Sneyd, Pryce, minichello & Michaels certainly is a step up from when we were signing the likes of Paul Johnson, Pitts, Arundel & Crookes. There's a lot of average players in SL nowadays & I'm pleased to see we are now trying to sign quality & fill the squad out with our own youngsters.
We've signed 2 NRL players with plenty of experience not potential so got to be pleased. Anyone know why he only played one game this year?

Because he is 4th or 5th choice at Titans
hardly a star but always gives it all according to Titans fans.
Wonder if he will be asked to bulk up as he is similar weight to Ben Crooks. |

One article mentioned that he had missed games because of being on compassionate leave.

He's a couple of lbs heavier and 4 inches smaller, not sure he'll need to bulk up. 
He played 2nd row on Sunday against the Warriors.
Very fast, but hasn't kicked on after a promising start to his career.
1 year deal with a 2nd in our favour sounds like a decent enough deal for me, gives him chance to prove his worth. |

Correct, 14% differential in BMI.
Not a standout signing by any means, but solid experienced outside back to complement Shaul, Lineham, Sa, Talanoa, Yeaman, Lancaster, Rankin and co. Could be a debut year for Logan next year, or a season too early? Logan is the same height and weight as Michaels, so doesn't need to bulk up either.

How can you say it's a decent deal when you've already described Michaels as "NOT VERY GOOD AT ALL"?

Wow. Still bitter? Burns has done it, Taylor, Paea and Mason did it too. You clearly have problems down there. |

Well it's quite easy, he's not very good at all. However a one year deal is decent in terms of proving himself in a different league, and much preferred to the 3/4 year deals sometimes handed out to these type of players. |

YouTube highlight videos are never really a good indicator of a players ability, but that video does show that he has plenty of pace.
So now our back options look like this:
FB: Shaul, Naughton (?)
W: Lineham, Talanoa, Lancaster
C: Sa, Michaels, Yeaman, Logan (who knows what will happen with Crooks and Arundle).
SO: Pryce, Rankin, Abdull
SH: Sneyd, HTW
A lot of those guys play more than one position aswell. I'm quite happy with that really.

Thought you'd be shooting your load with all these GCT signings?  |

You watch as much NRL as I do, there's not many GCT players to shoot your load about this year!
