| Quote Saint Simon="Saint Simon"But some are worth the coin'" 
Id rather lose the odd game in the short term to allow genuine young talent that we have at the club to flourish especially so in the current financial climate and the reduction in salary cap rewards.
A signing of this nature would be a slap in the face for all the hard work and money we invest in our heralded junior development.
If we were reliant on Matty Smith maybe but we have Wheeler and Eastmond kids with pace, vision and footwork - real potential which needs experience to flourish.
Given no-one in Britain can produce a decent three quarter I dont mind the likes of Gids and Soliola being purchased, but when we have genuine potential in specific positions id like to see it given a chance to develop.
This is the St Helens way, fore runners in youth development for which we should be immensly proud and appreciative. |

Whilst agreeing with most of what you say I think you should look here.

| Quote Saddened!="Saddened!"If we let Longy go and sign Thurston, or even attempt to, I'll be livid. We should stay well, well clear of Thurston.
If these kids we have are anywhere near their hyped up level they will be able to do the job. I have a nagging doubt that they are all frauds, given how little any of them are trusted, when the club was perfectly happy for Smith to play week in week out for a while.'"
This is the best
Do give me reasons as to why we should turn down the Queensland and Australia scrum half?

Agreed. That was sad.

Assuming he stays fit enough to make the team. |

James Roby played in the halves. It didn't stop him working out at hooker. Academy positions mean very little when kids move up to the first team. |
