I don’t mind the Asiata signing as I think he brings something different but Burns is shooting a blank for mine. Katoa, Okonbur, Alamoti and Allan are the depth players and I think bringing in another in unnecessary. That’s assuming all those players will actually be here next year which the Burns signing could indicate they might not be.It's just people trying to put a positive spin on these signings. Asiata and Burns both have huge injury issues but they wouldn't be on not much more than the minimum, they're on short term deals and I doubt they're being expected to play much FG.
Players that are 26-30 in your squad are often career Reserve Graders who don't have much upside and often do nothing in FG when called upon. At least both Burns and Asiata are experienced FGers who are not going to look out of place if and when they're called up to FG.
