You are not seriously suggesting Pryce and Mathers were on a par with them they signed? Deacon and Carmont were seasoned pros who had proved themselves in SL and the NRL. Mathers and Pryce were far more risky signings given they had not ( proved themselves) and both had question marks over injuries.
That said I don't blame IL for going after those two given the circumstances of the club at the time v the salary cap. They could have worked out. Things have moved on since then and we ought not to be in the risky signings zone.
I don't see much risk with the NZ player provided we don't offer him a daft contract. Based on past form at Hull we have already offered a daft contract for our player from Hull (whose name I can't spell
) as we have given him a three year deal minimum.
YOUR words were:
Maybe they will both work out but I have to say whenever we have gone the cheap route since IL took over (Mathers, Pryce) it never has so far.
I simply pointed out two times that it HAS worked as opposed to NEVER (again, YOUR word).
