| Quote GrahamBray="GrahamBray"Totally agree, the fact that we wasted Berrigan's talent, still rankles 10 years on. Daniel Holdsworth was supposed to be our answer, but that didn't work out too well, about the same time as we'd gone all in for Rangi Chase, if I remember correctly. Maybe they'll train with Pele at 7!!?. Maybe previously, but Smith will know we need a proper half and I am sure he can find one. If he cannot, then we have to accept that nobody could. We, obviously, aren't really in the box seat for attracting in demand players, Clune being the prime example, if Huddersfield are viewed as more attractive. With all respect to them, they aren't exactly Saints or Wigan, are they?'"
Wasn’t the main reason for Caine going to Huddersfield that he wanted to be based near Manchester? Not much the club could/can do about that.

Looks like we were/are in for Sailor'"
Walker
Sailor
Hoy
Certainly wouldn't be boring, think signing Walker has put paid to him coming, probably all changed with the Truman injury, would have been Salior, Hoy and Trueman.
Probably end up at Catalans to partner Fages.

| Maybe there was confusion when Clark allegedly stated we have signed a world class player.
Could he have meant the son of a world class player instead? It might have been Cooper Johns he was alluding to instead as well.
A misunderstanding after a few post match drinks. Easily done.

Subtle change to Dan's wording about our last overseas spot.
Before it was always implied it would be an overseas 7 coming in. Now it's a "spine player". Could still be a 7, I'm just fuelling the full back speculation

Looks like we're broadening our horizons and nit strictly after a 7.
A spine of Sailor, Hoy and Trueman. Strap yourself in for some chaos

| Just a shame with Walker now signing that we couldn't sign Connor Watson. He would have been ideal.

We’ve known for long enough that we’d possible need a 7 for next season, they was talk of it before the first away game of the season at Leeds.

How long does a Magic Scrumhalf Tree take to grow? Is five months long enough to sprout a fresh player that is good enough to satisfy fans, cheap enough for us to afford, and underrated enough to want to play for us?
I mean, it's all very well demanding that the club spontaneously create nonexistent players whenever they are needed but what if that process takes six months? Or even seven?

Would agree as there is no point signing a quota player just to fill it if it is not going to improve or benefit us, we've done that once too often.
The market has certainly changed in terms of recruiting players for the NRL as even fringe players particularly in terms of halves and hookers seem to be playing the waiting game to see if they'll get a deal in the NRL. Think this is further evident with the likes of Sezer getting a deal back in the NRL (even Reynolds got one before retiring). The financial gulf between NRL and SL is bigger than ever which also won't be helping either.
Maybe as has been mentioned previously October/November might be a better time which was around the time we managed to secure Clifford when NRL teams have pretty much finalised their squads for the coming year.

Don’t need to grow one, money talks. Something we should have plenty of given the players leaving. Seems like club are panicking after failing to get a 7 in, so far.

Seriously think the club are hoping Clifford comes back to the club in 2025 or earlier in 2024 if he cant force his way as first choice into the team in the NRL.
