| I don't think he's as quick as Caro otherwise he'd have been under the post on his breakaway tries. Thought 2 or 3 of the other tries were good centre play. Bit under whelmed.

| Quote: Beverley red "Am I alone in being underwhelmed by this new addition?. Why are we running an academy if we don't promote our young players? Ulugia might well be a great prospect but if he turns out OK he will be back off to the NRL & we will be looking again. I would sooner go to the lower league & give a British lad a go. I wish the lad well but surely there must be a winger/centre good enough for our squad.'"
You seem to be suggesting that we should not sign anyone who might be any good in case they go on to attract the attention of other clubs. Goodness he might even be so good that NRL clubs want him wouldn't that be awful.
You must have been devastated when Sam Latus was released that lad would have hung around as long as we wanted. Could have built a team around him, a relegation team.
We don't know how this latest signing will work out but the coach wants him so that's good enough for now.

| Disappointing that SL is now only able to attract reserve grade or cast offs from the NRL who no one wants.

Also a stepping stone to get their careers back on track and in the shop window, a number of these cast offs have gone back and played nrl again.
Do you feel the same way about Rankin, Miller and Hereamia?

Not heremaia as the last game he played in the NRL was a grand final I think but certainly the other 2

| Richards was in that bracket and left to back to the NRL as one of the most influential players for Wigan. If they add to our team and make us perform better then I couldn't careless where they come from.

What I am suggesting is that we should ALWAYS look to our own first, they should be given the chance to fail before we go to Australia. Sam Latus was given his chance & found not to be good enough as in 90% of all young players. The only players I want to see is the odd star of the Jamie Lyons type. Sandercock should spend more time on the phone to British clubs & armature sides than his home country. I am not just a fan of Rovers I am a fan of the game from under 9's to international if we can't produce our own players & push the game forward we deserve to be relegated.

And when he loses game after game then give him the sack. This lad has been deemed good enough for an nrl starting berth, if cs thinks he can tame his off field antics then he'd be daft not to try with him. CS has no allegiance to British RL his remit is to make sure rovers win.

| The fact he was even in a night club should have alarm bells ringing.
