This might be a long shot, but how about having a go at Albert Kelly?

It would be highly unlikely that Kelly would qualify for a work permit.

Hmm didn't think of that. I don't think we should be looking to sign Finch though, as people have said it is not a long enough term solution.

Why at 29 he could easily be here for 3 or 4 years.

Yes, but would we want him when hes 31/2/3 ?? Or would we be complaining of the same things we are with Deacon currently?

I doub't we'd be complaining about the same things as Deacon, Finch is actually good.

And there was a time at which Deacon was one of the best in the league, running amok behind the best pack in the league.

The difference is he's better than Deacons ever been.

Raynor offers more than Sherrife and Halley IMO

Finch would add some much needed class and spark to the HB's

Brough would also give us much more at HB than we have.

All 3 I would be happy giving 2-3 year deals, so hardly that short term.

Deacon has only ever been a decent player in a good team.

Fair comment I suppose. I would like to see Brett Finch here but I would still rather have a longer term solution.
