Laughable really, signings like this are what hold you back cap wise, he won't be on a pittance. Do you think Wigan or Leeds would make this kind of signing?

You mean a player like Anthony Gelling, at the time a 21 year old with roughly 0 first grade games?

Sarginson & gelling no Wigan only sign proven players.

What have the U19's position got to do with ours?! You do realise there's a big gulf in class and ability, right?

You probably moaned when we signed Moa without giving him a chance. Probably moaned that signing Prescott for the second time was keeping some 17 year old away from his rightful shirt.

Just to be clear, I'd actually prefer to see Abbo given the 13 shirt and Westerman try and earn it back because Abdull already looks like a SL player with confidence and lack of fear.

As with ALL SL teams, they will only blood youngsters when their most experienced and valuable players are out. That is how you see if they can truly make the grade. It happens in ALL sports.

Yet more superfluous BS.

Think people need to understand what it is i'm saying. I'm saying that, in this instance, i'd rather we gave Logan the chance than a reject NRL. Yes i'm quite aware that the odd NRL 'reject' has turned out to be decent. But for every Sam Moa, there's 4 or 5 Brett Seymour's.

Some people (luckily nobody at the club) also seem to be talking about him moving to 6 when Pryce retires! Well, again i'd rather HTW be given that chance alongside Sneyd, who by then will have had 2 years at the club and will be in a position of experience to help someone like HTW settle in.

We also have Abdull, who at the moment should be kept mainly in the halves with the odd bit of game time at LF. Giving him the 13 shirt would be silly, the pack is far more demanding and he doesn't possess great fitness & stamina, yet!

Sarginson had played 50 SL games!

Gelling is fair enough, of course there's instances of it working out. But like i've just said - for every Sam Moa there's 4 or 5 Seymour's or Hutch Maiava's.

Chuck all the youngsters in and dont bother signing any1. Their from hull. It'll be fine.
What utter crap. We'd get beasted. Hes playing at a level thats only just below SL and standing out. Our 19s are playing about 4levels below and physically are4 yrs behind him. At least 1 n some cases 2 yrs away from week in week out standard physically and mentally.

Well that's not what I said at all, is it?

He's always right mate because he watches the u19s, although ears only plays his mates, he's gone out & signed a kid who is going to play in kirks position, but it's ok he can break it to him next time theyre in big fun!

You mean the young lad who's Motu's mate?

Can't call playing for London a game, my nanna would have got a game for them but she goes to bingo on a Sunday, Seymour wrecked himself. He played a good level before coming here.

Your making yourself look daft pal. The 19s & SL are a different level.

But a lot of players got played in that London team what shouldn't have been played but they had no choice yet to sling their youth in & look how that ended.
