I was hoping Horne would fill that role next year.

We've needed both halves and fb covering this season.

I wonder if the official press release will call him 1 of the best players from the NRL never the receive rep honours which seems to be the standard line.

Thought Martin was a poor signing but this guy has got to be the worst signing of recent memory.

I can't think of a worse one. It's not like he's an unknown quantity, we've been watching him play gash for years!

He's already been on to Mally Welburn to discuss the design for a new "nightclub"

Thats the misconception though he isnt gash at all but has been a cheap shot merchant in the past , but far from gash...and anyone who levels Maguire is good enough for me LOL. i am glad i am not the only one interested to see how this pans out though both on and off the field!!
I trust AH to know him better than we do ....

On the back of Sunday's inspiring RH interview, this signing is as baffling as it is appalling. Young quality British signings and top quality experienced players? WTF is going on?

He is one of the worst players in one of SL's worst teams.

This is more embarrassing than the domestic violence support followed by the Reardon signing.

Tony Martin was a very poor signing but THIS is incredible. I bet AP isn't aware of the fans obvious reaction to this and how it could easily hit his pocket.

Nothing like the reardon signing and not even in the same region so get a grip and as for Tony martin, what did he do wrong???
massive over reaction way OTT

You get a grip !

It is exactly like the reardon signing, a weekend statement of intent from the club followed by an utterly embarrassing contrary action.

By Martin I was meaning Tony Martin not Martin Aspinwall.

Has a great engine ? I have never heard anybody use that phrase to describe a fullback or 6.

I don't understand the logic given in the HDM about how losing Moa and Tickle has suddenly made him a signing which needs to happen.

Wrong, he's gash. Stop trying to defend the indefensible. If Cas had a fully fit squad, he wouldn't be in their side, how he's supposed to take you guys forward is beyond me. Gentle can have the Coach of the Year award now if he finds a player in that pile of turd.

All season long we've been hearing "in AP, SM and PG we trust". Now all of a sudden we don't. Lets not get too upset about this as I assume this was done with a real plan in mind. There's obviously more going on than any of us are aware of.
In AP, SM and PG I still trust.

so now goldie is a wife beater is he to boot.
get a grio mate, cant even liken it to that one....
anyway he is with us so thats how it is mate

But where can McGoldrick possibly fit into any "plan"?

However we dress it up or try to find positives, this is an appalling signing in every way.
