Good point there Trinity1315 regarding crowds, especially with what I said the other day regarding average crowds being linked to spending the full cap.
I dont think I ever shared an observation my 15 year old son made at the CC semi final last year. He said he felt that Sandow, Gidley and Ratchford, their main pivots posed a threat inside their own 20 metres, and asked the question of our pivots and sid ours pose the same threat.
Maybe, just maybe, playing budgets aside, that he could have a point
Sandow yes, very talented on his day but the only reason he was over here, and is now also no longer here, is that his attitude stinks. So do you think it's a good idea for Wakefield to sign a player like that? I certainly don't.
Our half backs have been fine this year anyway, as reflected by the fact we're 4th after 22 rounds. Jacob Miller is a threat from anywhere when he's fit. The only glaring deficiency I can see in our half backs is that they all have fairly average kicking games.
Since we've yet to hear anything about Williams signing for next year I assume the chances are he will go back to Australia, although I think he's a good player and we haven't seen the best of him yet so I would rather he signed a new deal.
If he does go though and a half back with a top class kicking game becomes available within our budget then we should definitely go for them but I accept that a team on our budget unfortunately can't have everything and also that half backs are generally well in demand.
