Thought we were a young progressive side. Signing 34 year old Australian's isn't my idea of progress

(Where is Jamie Lyon going to be playing next year? If he signs for Leeds/Wigan/Wire I'll be furious!)

St George didn't seem to mind giving Sailor a deal and he'd been serving a ban for being a Hock.

DOB 1st july 1977, will make him 32 in a week, and he will play most of next year as a 32 year old. A bit picky i know, but basically 2 years younger than you make out.

Course they would. They resigned the likes of Darren Smith, who must have been nearing 40 by the time he last played NRL.
