You sign championship players you get championship quality. Chris Hills are once in a blue moon.

We aren't going to spend any significant money - if at all - be realistic.

That's where you are isn't it?

So you get out of it by doing it different. Unlike the true bottom dwellers.

Not buying players whether they are available or not. Not really that hard to understand from first post.

Quite.

The below were all available and easily gettable if we weren't so tight:

Greenwood
Charnley
Austin
Murdoch-Masila
Clark
Walmsley
Bateman
Kenny Edwards


We have the Hardaker transfer fee and the saved wages from JP, Sinfield, Burrow, Galloway, Leuleui and Hardaker.

Greenwoo - wanted big wage demands average player
Charnley - really
Austin - good player wanted huge wages hardly better than the stand off we have singed and maybe we have the better player.
Murdoch-Masila - luxury signing, but were we ever in with a shout of signing him, hardly freely available Warrington paid a transfer fee.
Clark - ? if youi meen Daryl clark at any point has he been readily available again warrington spend big to get him, not sure Cas would have sold him to us.
Walmsley - never been available would require huge transfer fee and that still might be fancyfull.
Bateman - again when has he ever been available and when he originally went to wigan we had far better in the side
Kenny Edwards - well this yes a player we should have been looking for or trying to get.

Probably little chance of getting him but Martin Tapau is likely leaving Manly.

Re: Transfer Talk / Rumour Thread V2 : Mon Aug 06, 2018 5:54 pm  

Tapau would be an awesome signing, just what we need, a real pack leader. Absolutely loved playing a Headingley too from what I remember cpl years back. If he's available it would be criminal to to make an approach.

Re: Transfer Talk / Rumour Thread V2 : Mon Aug 06, 2018 6:56 pm  

Tapau would be great, but think he’ll be in demand in Sydney. He is the kind of signing we need in the forwards.
