Not really.... well in a way... I'm not sour about missing out on Cronk... never thought for a second we were really in the hunt to sign him.... but I don't like the fact the roosters can sign him on such a massive contract with the roster they already have and reporters aren't asking more questions.... that makes no sense and seems grossly unfair to me. It does piss me off that our club is so heavily scrutinised and these pricks can sign one of the best up and coming fullbacks and the Australian halfback ...and add them to an already very strong roster. I think the situation reeks tbh...
But having said all that, I do stand by my comment.... he's 33 years old and I'd rather we focus on the future ... that's one of the reasons I wasn't happy about Foran but he's on board now and by s accounts he's in a good head space... hopefully he can provide mentorship to our young players... but I don't think we need Cronk... and I don't know his signing will be a good thing for the roosters if it causes disharmony amidst the rest of the playing ranks...
So yeah, I'm pissed off they don't get scrutinised more, but it's the perceived double standard that pisses me off... not missing out on Cronk. As handy as he'd be, he really isn't a spring chicken and I never expected us to sign him anyway.
