Didn't last long in union,but i don't think Kath will slacken the purse strings to buy somebody on his wages.These are the top class type of players we could do with

Parramatta may be having a clean out, and Ben Smith could be released after speaking out about Finch leaving the club. He is a powerful 25 year old 6' 3" centre. He had an bad injury, but fully recovered. Due to his size and strength, he has been playing in the second row, to cover for a shortage of experienced players in the forwards.

I like it I don't know if he is exactly what we need... i'd rather have a centre who could cover the wing, not the other way. But beggers can't be choosers! I'd have him anyday

Seems like one or two of the Parramatta players are not seeing eye to eye with Mr Anderson

Was already losing it when he went to yawnion and that move is only going to make him worse. He's injury prone (haven't we had that situation before?) and would be a very risky signing as a player. That is without the financial implications as he wouldn't be cheap with another year on his yawnion contract to pay out.

I think the pace that SL is played does have a lot to do with,it, in Aus the halfback is on the ball at first reciever a lot more often then in SL becuase we tend to go for 5 quick plays.

thats why some peeps call it super scoot league
