Good signing IMO. The outside backs haven't been as good as they can be due to Brooks and Moses. I think we'll see a huge improvement in the backline when the halves start providing space and good service.
Not every signing can be an international/SOO player. Penrith have shown you can build a team around one or two key players and fill the other spots with solid first graders and promising juniors.
Not sure Penrith is a good club to reference when discussing good roster management AND the retention of Kevin Naqama.
Good point on the surface.
I would suppose the difference between Penrith and us is that they have considerable depth. They did let go of two wingers who have gone on to play first grade at other clubs (Naiqama and Nabuli,) who couldn't get a first choice look in the first grade side due to Mansour, Watene-Zelezniak, Simmons. He was being kept from first grade by their two first choice wingers and a rated junior, and in the 8 games he did play he scored 6 or 7 tries, so it wasn't as though poor performance was keeping him out.
I was just being light hearted. It wasn't meant to be in-depth analysis of the Panthers' roster management.
