We sign 1 truly marquee player. Half back would be my preference. But who and where from??? Ah well back to reality.

Todd Carney. Flanders to return to Aus to make way on the quota.

Flanders has been here long enough not to count as quota and Carney can't get a visa, but hey......

Flanders can go and let Rolf Harris or dame Edna take his non fed spot ...... They would offer more pace and threat in attack!!

An exellent argument with just the minor flaw of Flanno not taking up a spot on the non fed list due to signing before the 2008 deadline ( same for Meli to )

Haven't we got plenty of halfbacks?

We have already signed one 'truly marquee' player. Or do you not consider a current World Cup winning international to be marquee? I can't think of any player more marquee than that myself.

Looking forward to seeing Lance play for us next season. AND to seeing more potential future great halfbacks play their debuts for us in the seasons to come. We certainly produce halfbacks.

Hohaia isn't marquee. He's more one man tent.
