I feel like he's a signing made 2 seasons too late. Or even if we had got him before Hoppa.

Lol fuck off. Can't believe we are signing Mead. Our recruitment is fucking trash.

Imo hes been playing well in Titans. Much more pace than floppa. He can actually be good last man-defence

Mead wouldn't be a bargain though, we'll pay another 400k for a winger who can play fullback every now and then

From what I'm hearing Perrett will be around next year and Rona wants to stay but doesn't mean he's wanted.

Lmao really?

So Rona could not be wanted but Perrett is, does our club know you need the best player you can get to have a chance not club favourites ready too retire... If thats true our club needs to realise winning a comp makes them money not mediocre crap

Apparently Ch 7 in QLD was reporting that David Mead is most likely going to end up signing with us.

Good player but not really a move forward imo.
Under Des...
Behind our pack....
Blah blah blah

Another Meh signing.

I can't believe we'd be seriously considering Mead. Another old back who we'd probably sign on a 4 year contract knowing Des.

Des signing mead is interesting

Is he playing full back? Then our game plan will not change and expect forward domination. Des has been trying to look for a speedster to sniff for offloads. Mead will do this.

I really don't believe that we'd have the current structure if we get Foran. This mead move may mean that Foran may not be coming after all.

Great!!! Mead is virtually a slightly faster version of Perrett .. If I could pick one player that reminded me of Perret in the comp it would be Mead .. Des needs a SCAT test seriously .......

I can't believe someone just said Mead is a slightly faster version then Perrett? IN WHAT WORLD...

I agree he is not as good as he was 2-3 years ago. That said he would still walk into our backline.

I'd love the idea of having Mead on board PROVIDED it is not at the expense of Rona and is not big bucks.

A back 5 out of B Moz, Rona, Hoppa, J Moz and Mead is a very very good back 5. It's up to Des who fits where though any of Mead, Hoppa, B Moz can play fullback and then work out the rest from there.

The most important piece in my opinion is still Foran by far and I can't see how Mead signing (if true) effects that at all especially considering Perrett is surely on his last legs if he sticks around it's depth SURELY and Rona speculation to union (which I hope is BS) and would keep him over Mead every day of the week. Besides B Moz I think Rona is our best back by far.
