That makes interesting reading and our recruitment has not been great. It made me wonder how we made two finals last year, and have an opportunity do so again this year. The answer being - the quality of SL is very very poor.

Me too, seems like J Clark and Davis are very similar players, but don't cost similar money (not to mention the waste of a quota spot).

I’d mentioned this before, similar performance level and impact but for 3-4 times the cost. Just not good value.

Maybe J Clarke will get homesick

I was hoping Clark would be a Ben Harrison style player. Busy, lots of tough early set carries and strong in defence. But, its just not worked out that way.

I think he started off Ok and thought he was building himself a part but tbh he's not kicked on and become ineffective mirroring the team as a whole. So on the face of it not VFM at the moment as presumably he's on a decent contract

Wigan have just announced Burgess, we desperately need a big signing!

Apparently not a marquee player. That's a 3rd good signing in 2 weeks.
