Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Our last 4 signings were Mago, Ellis, Thornley and Miski.

3 out of those 4 are in our 17 week in week out.

Prior to that we signed Field and Bibby who are in our 17 week in week out.

Whose progress are they halting?
Have any of those vastly improved the team?

Is Miski as good as Pat Richards?
Is Thornley as good as George Carmont?
Is Patrick Mago as good Craig Smith?
Is Thingy Ellis as good as Quentin Pongia?

Those are the type of standard of players we should be trying to sign
Pat Richards was nearly run out of town in his 1st season. I was at Hindley tesco day after a defeat and he was getting pelters. Turned out very well after that.
George Carmont was a very uninspiring signing that turned out well too

so just going off names that we sign, isnt the best judgement as they may not be a big name, but can turn out well
Very true re: Richards! Sign an NRL grand final winger and bang him in at centre! Remember his debut V Catalans (A), I thought this is a disaster of a signing......the rest is history! :D

Sounds like there's no still no ambition

Powell new contract = No ambition

Cue the fan boys with the usual

"He gives 100%"
"He tackles his heart out"
"He's a thoroughly lovely bloke"

Interesting this. Terms not offered to Bibby? The story I'm hearing is Huddersfield have upped his wages by a fair bit. Wonder if we have got someone lined up at left centre.

Reading the comments to the article terms not offered meaning the player is leaving so it includes players like bibby who have just been offered a better deal
