IF Abdul is going to be a marquee player on a minimum 2 year deal then god help us !!!
Notorious for his poor training attitude & inability to keep himself in good shape.
We had the best of him ( except for when his kicking game for KR destroyed us at MKM ) why did we let him go ? 'He likes his kebabs...... Jordan Abdul he likes his kebabs'. His best days are behind him - KR & Catalans are testimony to that - why do people think we can wave a majic wand, and transform him, all the evidence is we take average players & make them worse.
Mentoring ?? Come on - which of our truly promising youngsters have we signed up long term, Davy Litten & Denive Balmforth were the big hopes for this year, neither can break into the team which is about to set new records for losing.
Could accept JA as a squad player who can play 13 but really ? He will be nowhere near marquee money now & he has NOT pushed on, if AP still signing the cheques he hasn't learned the errors of the last two seasons.
