He probably turned out the worst. When he was announced it appeared to be a top drawer acquisition. As far as chocking up a quota spot goes, hohaia is an absolute disaster

We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.

Perry, contender for worst Super League signing, let alone Saints.

Perry was a great signing, it's just turned out terrible.
Lance was signed for no reason that I can see, we didn't need a full back and he's nothing but a stop gap in any other position

Pound for pound its close between Perry and Hohaia but I agree when we signed Perry I was pleased , its a shame that injuries seem to have ruined him, Lance as you say is an average utility player or decent fullback

You can only get what is available. Alas, Luke Walsh wasn't available two years ago. Had he been, we'd have no doubt snapped him up. This year who else has been available other than Luke Walsh? So much about signings is down to the luck of timing.

And besides, with a proper scrum half beside him, Hohaia may turn out to be a decent six.
