To be fair, it's pretty rare to see a winger run around his opposite number on the outside in the modern game.

I didn’t know anything about George Carmont but assumed because he was an NRL first grader he’d probably go OK.

Common sense wouldn’t you agree?

So what’s wrong with assuming a player who is 26, which is I think how old Carmont was when he came, who hasn’t made it in the NRL and ended up in a championship side is of championship level?

If he was any good why wasn’t he picked up by another NRL side when let go by Manly?

With French, Field & Marshall we'll have plenty pace.
The big job is to get them into positions where they can use their pace.

What do you know about Miski and why do you think he’s going to be any good? How often have you seen him play? The only thing i have heard about him is he was supposedly useless v Toulouse and I know he’s been playing in the championship so I assume that’s his level.
Would that logic apply to Alex Walmsley, for example?

Miski can leg it Hanks as his centre .
A bit more optimistic about Miski, he has heft and balance on that viewing. Just need about 7 more signings of that and better quality :(

Yeah, but by Dave's thinking he's shit because he was dropped by the NRL.
