If I had a choice, I'd like us to get Herbie Farnworth from the Dolphins.
Wouldn't be classed as a quota spot and is a quality centre. Tackle breaker and try scorer, as well as being able to supply his winger
Absolutely no chance of that happening. Interesting point is this. I agree there's zero chance of it happening, but is that because we don't have the cash to tempt him or because, even if we did, regardless of what we paid him, he wouldn't leave the NRL at this stage of his career. He’s on $850,000 dollars a year. Whilst we could put him as Marquee that would mean dropping a current marquee salary and we would have to be paying him quite a bit more than he’s in to tempt him away from the NRL. He’s lived there since a teenager, in his prime and considered one of the best in the NRL. Those types of players coming to the SL are long gone. Yep.If he qualified he would be playing Origin. I don't disagree. My question was one of principle. If enough money was offered, and assuming the marquee rule was adhered to, could any SL club attract an individual of Farnworth's quality, in their pomp, or is the quality of the NRL too much of a draw for them. No team in SL can afford or attract anyone of his quality in the NRL, maybe when he’s 32/33 and ending his career. As I say the days of attracting those sorts of players are long gone. |

I seem to be in the minority but I thought Croft was class last weekend, possibly contender for MoM. He seems to be growing in his partnership with Connor and I can only see him getting better. At last he is playing in a team with a partner and structure that suits him, still not the player we thought we were getting but getting closer week by week.
Not at all, i rate him highly and i think he's copped unfair criticism at times. He's a very good player. Things have been a mess around him since he signed until Arthur and Blease came in and sorted it all out, he's now playing much better. |

Things have been a mess around him since he signed until Arthur and Blease came in and sorted it all out, he's now playing much better. I really like Croft. I thought he was our best player last year and indeed still one of the best in the league playing behind a pack that got demolished every week. Now, with Connor playing as proper seven, and a much more polished version of Miller to play off, I think he's quite capable of lighting up the comp. He does the tough stuff too, off hand I'd say is one on one defence is the best (for a half) I've seen at the club since Cliff Lyons. The priority for Blease should be keeping the current spine together for the next two to three years. |

The Wallis one is really odd, it's hard to see how/where he would fit in. I do think it's a pretty strong indication that we are serious about winning the reserve comp though. |
