Kyle Amor : Tue Sep 10, 2013 9:01 am  

As this is now official, I reckon it deserves its own thread rather than being left in the rumours sticky. http://www.saintsrlfc.com/news/page/3345 How significant a signing do we think this is? I think this turns us into a side that will compete for trophies. We're still a good stand off and possibly a strike centre short of being a complete side, but we won't be getting bullied up front next year.

I actually think in Turner and Percival we have a couple of good centres at the club, both with plenty of improvement in them.

Jones/Wheeler/Sia can all cover.

I'd Start the season with Wheeler at Centre and after the first game when Wheeler gets injured carry on with Percival for rest of season

Aye, centre is the position I'm least concerned about. Hopefully Percy will make that spot his own this year.

Absolutely great signing and shows the club are prepared to pay transfer fees when they are worth it!
Our pack looks very good for next year now!

A very good signing. I've been impressed with what I've seen of him and Trinity fans seem gutted to have lost him: Kyle Amor

Brilliant signing for you guys and a snip at 50K. He will be in the England squad next year.

Re: Kyle Amor : Tue Sep 10, 2013 9:30 am  

I think it's a very good signing. He's the type of prop I've been calling us out to sign. He's big, mobile, aggressive and can play good mins.

It makes the Beuamont signing more acceptable as he will most prob be back up.

I've been saints biggest critic when it comes to our signings but I've got to give them credit as Amor, Masoe and Walsh look to be quality signings and they are players in the positions we need.

I think it will spell the end of clough at saints now.

I've known Kyle for a few years now and I'm gutted for the club that he's gone but delighted for the player who deserves any and all the success coming his way.

IMO he's up there as one of the top 4 front rowers in the SL but beyond that he brings an attitude which you just can't put a price on.

Good luck at Sts Marra!
