If he can lose some Kgs he would be the signing of the year in FB.

He mustn't have carried them very far though. Didn't he play for the Eels and Titans.......
Those teams wouldn't get far with Cronk and Smith in the side... But he is a genuine gun, as good as Barba if not better. The only issue was that foot injury that was going to kill his career which is why he is in England for some quick dough before retirement. His an NRL player otherwise.

That wasn't his only issue. He was sacked by Cronulla and the Titans and suspended by Hull for disciplinary reasons. He can score a try but is a turnstile in defence and goes missing in half his games. He is smaller than Mbye and older. Scoring tries in ESL is like scoring them in the reggies here. He's another Sandow.

Isnt this the guy who was supposed to be "the next big thing" simply due to the fact that he was Grog Inglis's cousin ?

Turned out he was just another petrol sniffer.

That was before he had a kid and settled down... His pretty grown up these days, good on him and hopefully he stays right.

His an NRL player and can score the same tries in the NRL as he does in the ESL. His been a point scoring machine his whole career and if there is something we need its definitely points.

He nearly got sacked at the beginning of this season for not coming back from Australia......He's only scored roughly what most centres score during his NRL career >50%. Even playing touch footy in the ESL he is around 65%. Not even close to his cousins... Anyway it is a moot point as he has only just re-signed for another year at Hull.

Whats with the number if sign ppl threads we have started the last day or so. Ppl forgotten already we need to shed players at a loss already to get under the cap. How can we afford MORE players?

Coz of backending we will need to pay half the salary of anyone we shed next year that's worth shedding $$ wise. Tbh anyone we shed can be replaced by our nsw cup players if needed. They go well.

Coaching is where our biggest improvement needs to come.
Yeah... its strange how a very hurtful truth can be so easily forgotten.

Personally I think If we do end up with Woods and Foran the NSW Cup is the only "club" we can go shopping from to get new first graders.

It looks as though they're pretty well clued up on that too as they seem to be going well at the back end of this season.
