I rate Merrin but I may sound controversial here, I genuinely dont think hes the Marquee player we needed. I think we could get more for our money hes not a game winning xfactor player and that's what a marquee player should be imo

I full understand you trebor.

What about some one like Jake friend as a marquee player

Sadly we have no chance of signing someone like Tetevano, and would have to overpay someone like Prior.
I would be looking at Robbie Mulhern from KR.
Still can’t believe we ditched Garbutt. Terrible decision .....,

He is always injured

Mitch Garbutt played in 20 games for KR last season.
How many games did
Crosby
Albert
Ward
JJB
Play in COMBINED?
Pray tell me how does that constitute to ‘always injured’?

without merrin last year we went down. he is a leader. would sinfield have been a marquee in his prime? yes he would.
did he have the x factor? no he didnt. but he was a hell of a leader, merrin is in the same mould

Fair point Tad. I'd say Sinfield was a superior player to Merrin imo. Kicking game, goal kicking on top of everything else was world class.
