Hurrell won't be anywhere near as important as Lyon. I'm not sure he even knows how to pass. But if he's fit he'll add hugely to the entertainment in SL. Lolohea ditto. Austin at Wire will be like a breath of fresh air as well. Whilst we may never get as good as the NRL, bringing in players who have flair and are just fun to watch is a good way to go.

Yes and last time we finished 9th I bet you and others said we wouldn’t do anything in 2017

Qualifiers, Grand Final, Qualifiers, I don't think the sequence will carry on, more likely to be the qualifiers again than another GF appearance.

Oh dear

There are no more qualifiers so Leeds or any other team will not be in them.

Get it right it’s Grand Final WINNERS, Qualifiers, Grand Final WINNERS, Qualifiers

I’m not expecting us to win or reach the GF next year (have to wait to see the finalised squad for next year as plenty of rumours flying around, but it’s definitely more likely to be GF than Qualifiers

Hurrell exploded into the NRL a few years ago and was spectacular and exciting - no arguments with that; his star has since descended after injuries, suspensions and a significant dip in form. So whilst I'm sure he'll do some stuff that's worth watching, the OP's hyperbole is based on who he was 3 years ago - if he was still that player, he wouldn't be leaving the NRL.

Indeed but I’m glad we have his contemporary Bill the mini beast Tupou who’s career has gone in the other direction.
