Ins: D. Williams (Manly)

Costings on rugby league players is far from my best area of knowledge, but I'd presume Williams would come at a premium rate. Is the winger the best place to put it? A Furner type player would be far more needed IMO.

As for overseas signings, shame we haven't found the next mid-late 20's Kylie. To keep the wheels of evolution turning. When we signed Kylie he was far from a world beater in the NRL, played for a few clubs. His aggressive style and well known strength were qualities that we needed and need now. He didn't break the bank, just clever scouting. Maybe we need to work harder in this area.

I agree about signing a prop like Kylie from the NRL. I remember at the time some fans not been overwhelmed because he was not a "big name" He's proved them wrong and has been a good signing. If we see the neeed surely Gary H also does and hopefully has something lined up. Posssiblly Moa?

Well what you see is what you get. Man mountain.

Gets up to speed for a big man quite quickly, his lines of runs are quite clever, likes getting to the side of the line of defence.

Having said that, soft-cock, gets banged far too easily.

Oh and nice to see a post from you that wasn't declaring all your juice to Keith Senior.

That's in the NRL though. Not as intense over here.....Right?

Only because Big Keith isn't a Prop

Should bear in mind that in some respects Ben Cross was similar to Leuluai.....

Chances are if someone is available relatively cheap nowadays, there's a reason for it.
