| Quote: EXPRO "The reason thus far we have brought no one else in is very simple really
All the agents and clubs involved know we are a cash rich club and as such have all played the game with ridiculous figure being banded about , also two of the targets were happy to stay at their clubs and fight for a place in their own first team, unfoirtunately there simply isnt a whole glut of players available is there ....
AND should we discuss Obst I would be more than happy to have a player who has been ultra hardworking and a stand out player for a very average team so it makes you wonder what he could be like as the playmaker in a quality squad like ours???
Oh and dont forget whilst everyone has written us off for being light and so on... SL is fit you know and will be there in Cardiff!!! AND RH may be too so lets expend energy worrying if they get injured not before!!
whos to say they wont both play every match this year uninjured??
No one knows , and if they do get injured we already have decent cover so hence why the club isnt panicking because they dont have too'"
I totally disagree that is has any thing to do with us being a so called rich club....If this was the case every player would have their agents tapping FC and our squad would resemble Wigans! |

Correct ...What we think!..I bet if Rangi Chase was available last season the price would have been less than what we have paid for Longy..
This is my only qualm with our club we do not appear to get it right, some players (ideally younger ones) are worth paying the extra dosh for... |

| Quote: Wellsy13 "Exactly. Some people are under the impression that all players need is a bit of game time (these are the same people that say we should get rid of all the Aussies to make England a better team because we'll have more players getting SL games. Yes, they'll get more games, but they won't develop as well!).
Just a few more comparisons for our depth versus other teams
didn't o'carroll,mossop,farrell and tuson gain virtually all their experience last season and in doing so played a significant role in wigan,s best season for years,get yourself more positive and show some belief in our younger players

Rangi Chase and Aarron Murphy(fb/w) from wakey and i would be happy.we all know what chase can do,but the young lad from wakey plays both fullback and wing,and the times i saw him last season,looked a fine prospect.safe hands,pretty quick,young and British. |

O'Carroll and Mossop have been around for a while. Farrell debuted last year, and Tuson has been at the club since 2008, and played for them then and also on loan at Castleford.
I have faith in all our players, but not blind faith. Only a foolish person would put all their faith in players with the experience our back-up has. No other SL club with title aspirations has. |

westerman is a very good half when needed !!! and all part of the plan!!

Well Warrington, Wigan etc clearly pay players what they are realistically worth and we are clearly not prepared to as they would be here!!
Players like Sammut, Chase and do not have to fight for their places |
