Your comment doesn't make a lot of sense. Of all the ludicrous comments I've seen on this thread, your comment is right up there.

If Minichiello falls through another option for 2014 -- if he is available -- is Newcastle Knights utility back Kevin Naiqama. He can play full back, wing and centre, and is one of the fastest men in the NRL. Based on the Newcastle team that played Wests Tigers, right now he is behind Darius Boyd, Akuila Uate, Dane Gagai, Anthony Quinn and James McManus in Wayne Bennet's selection of outside backs. Personally I rate him much higher than Anthony Quinn, who played a few hours ago in the centres. Kevin, who is only 23, would be a sensation in Super League if Newcastle would release him.

The part which calls the thread ludicrous.

If the club continues to fail there will likely be a cleaning out of poor performers at year's end. That is why it is worthwhile to speculate which players are worth keeping (and which others may be worth hiring). Nothing ludicrous about such a discussion.

It is if you are not allowed to sign the suggested players because of the quota and no-federation trained rules.

I'm not prepared to entertain a thread any longer which suggests we're going to sign Tim Sheens and Anthony Minichello. Locked for reasons of blatant idiocy.
