Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

To fit the narrative you people are now comparing Montoya with the likes of Grothe Snr - Vatuvei or Tuiaki!

He ain't that special folks - but steamrolled Staines who at least got his body in front!
Petty, - they were some of the best agreed, but any big fast body at 6ft 2in is going to stretch out 2m and score most times. It was a cheap shot that is common to some.
 
I think the Momorovski chapter is closed.

Seems like an alright guy and did alright for us, had a decent career... but we're onto bigger things.
Sure but our centre options are the aren't the best and depth there is very shallow at best. Paul is proven and would be a good buy to strengthen that area
 
He then went to Wigan and won a ton of trophies. They were easily the best team on the planet at the time largely because they were the only full time team on the planet. After that he went to Auckland - disaster. Returned to Wigan - bigger disaster. Coaches have a shelf-life - whether it be rugby, football, gridiron, whatever. When it's hot it's hot. And when it goes sideways you very rarely come back. In his final two stints in England Sheens took Hull KR up from the second division, won some games, lost even more games, made a ton of very dubious signings (Adam Quinlan was his playmaking fullback ... Adam Quinlan!), the team's form collapsed, he lost the dressing room and they ran him out the door. He then went to Widnes and was kicked out before he'd even taken off his coat. If Sheens had been all that he would have been snapped up by one of the bigger teams (like a Tony Smith or an Ian Watson). No one was interested in hiring him - beyond Widnes. No one.

I’d be willing to bet every fullback in the comp has had the same thing happen to them at some stage. Remember Sivo almost killing Tedesco? As a fullback you’d be lucky to stop 1/5 in that situation.
