Zero tackle named top 10worst signings for 2018\. And we made 30% of the field…. Josh Reynolds, Tanne Milne, McQueen...no wonder IC is gun shy signing new players for 2019..his 2018 record is nothing to write home about....

Im not a IC fan boy like many others on here. However, he can't be blamed for McQueen. Chris was signed before IC became coach.

Reynolds is a silly criticism. He has been good when on the field. Injuries happen.

Given we terminated Milne for taking drugs and therefore he was gone from our cap for most of the year, Im nonplussed by that one.

Cleary had me at hello until he did the dirty with his ex .

Taking into consideration all the players we let go to get him, Adam Blair is the worst signing we’ve ever made in my opinion.

Heighno left and more importantly, Fifita left.

Great job Sheensy, way to think it through.

I’ll go you one better. We chose Matt Groat over Andrew Fifita.

Rankin / ado car?

McQueen yep fair enough

Reynolds has been smashed with injuries but has lifted the team on the field and done great things off it.

Milne - did he even stay at the club for round 1? How can he be considered a bad signing.

Did Suli to the bulldogs make their list?

Wasn't aware that Cleary even had an ex. Could you please tell us what your post means?

Not exactly. Fifita was released as part of the deal where Cronulla agreed to take Bryce Gibbs. So Fifita was the casualty of our desperation to offload Gibbs.

Zero Tackle didn't even include Bryce Cartwright in the top 10 worst signings…

They had him in the honourable mentions section, along with Ben Hunt, which I think is ridiculous considering Hunt had a lot to do with St George's rise to the top of the ladder for much of the season. One month of recent bad form should not put him in the worst buys list. I noticed Leilani Latu was on the list also - weren't we supposed to be after him at some stage? Chasing another nuffy :brick:

Pretty sure that I saw McQueen quoted as having held discussions with Cleary and getting assurances before signing a week or so after his appointment. The announcement timeline also seemed to match that.

He's talking about the Ivan -> panthers.
 
Thompson had got to be one of the best buys, I think mybe will turn out ok too. Reynolds will be ok next season…..as long as we don’t keep the duds it’s ok to bring in fresh blood. We just need a few more jewels. If you are judging ckeary’s coaching ability look at the players he has improved; brooks, Lawrence, Kev, Mck, marsters

Panthers. He broke my heart he did.
 
So if McQueen is wanted by the Cowbos, they must think they will get a better player than the one we have seen this year. Does that suggest that he has been dogging it and has more in him that what he has shown?

For their sake, one would hope so, as he has been very underwhelming at WT.

I think that McQueen signing was Taylor carryover.

I think McQueen will come good after another off season and obviously the Cowboys think so too. I certainly don't think he's been dogging it with us, it can take some time to regain confidence after such a serious injury, one that could've ended his career altogether.

I would be happy if he stayed on with us, but I guess it hasn't worked out the way he hoped it would in Sydney with the Tigers and being a Queenslander, I think he will be more at home playing with a Qld club, so I wish him all the best.

Unfortunate circumstances for both McQueen and the Tigers, as I think he would've been good for us fully fit, but we just have to roll with it and hope we can secure a good replacement for him and for all the other forwards who are leaving at the end of the year as well!

What a letdown, typical us getting everyone else's rejects. Former SOO quality player to zero.. We need more class/quality.

I think we are the common denominator in these scenarios…. Hed be killing it at Melbourne

I don't think so. I just don't think he is that good of a player to be honest. That, along with a slow start to the season because of his injury, and he was always behind the 8 ball. However, the fact he couldn't break into our top 17 on a regular basis during the second half of the season, leads me to believe he just doesn't have it.

The Cows obviously think differently though.

Haha, yep that could also be true unfortunately.
