It's a shame we didn't wait a bit longer and snapped up Moon actually, but hindsight is great. I still don't get the fuss with Turner though, I'm afraid.

We was in for moon last year. I posted it on here. We didnt have the quota spot becsuse a certain overseas wouldn't go home.

They should sacked him to get Moon in! He's a quality centre, scores and sets up plenty, as proven last night.

If he knows you want him out, will you ever see him at his best?

He is very poor

It's early days yet to get the guillotine out for him yet, but we can't say we weren't warned.

I was gutted when leeds signed Moon.

Soliola stands out because of his big hair style, and occasional big run and big hit.

However defensively he is a liability having a tackle completion rate of just 88% missing 13 tackles upto the Leeds game.

Soliola moved into Centre in the grand final against Leeds when Shenton got injured and Leeds ripped us to shreds down that flank
He went Centre when Wello got injured against Hull. Guess were Hull tore us a new one.
Then when Wheeler was injured Soliola came on and filled in were Wheeler was defending. Guess were Leeds started attacking.

Turner looks like a good winger prospect. Is centre his best position?

He has pace which Shenton didn't have and you cannot teach that.

Let's at least gived the lad more time to see what he can do. He needs to play behind at least a pack on par to be judged first.

Why's he not kciking goals as per pre season? Would help boost his confidence.

There is nothing occasional about Soliola's workrate. He never stopped on Friday night. And then there is that quality that cannot be coached into a player - the ability to get the team (and crowd) going. Soliola always seems to do that. It's a valuable quality to have, especially in a team like Saints where there seems to be mostly mice.

That's why a coach with any sense won't play him twice at centre.

Maybe Nathan Brown needs a bit more sense ...?
