Yes, close to non existent
Gildart - Great Britain international
Hastings - GB international
Maumalo - NZ International
Tupou - ACT Brumbies and star raiders Junior
Peachey - recent NSW origin player
1 was here last year, 3 have no recent NRL experience and the last is a 30 year old that could not hold down a starting position at the Titans.
If we were semi finalists who had kept most of our roster, tinkering around the edges is acceptable. We needed major improvement and these guys are not that.
When your best 17 includes Kepoa, Garner and a question mark at centre, you are behind the eight ball to start with
I'm sorry but that is a falsehood regarding Peachey. By the end of the season he was first choice 5/8 for the Titans who played in the finals, he was picked ahead of a bloke they were paying $1mill a season
Maybe, but they showed him the door. GC

Maybe , but they showed him the door. . GC clearly didn’t rate him . His selection was probably “ best of a bad bunch” senerio . If he has the talent , clearly his attitude must of sucked. GC had the dollars to keep him & let go of him for a reason.
How do they have the $$$ to keep him, They've got 3 million dollars worth of back rowers...
And were looking to spend a mill or there abouts on a hooker.
He played Origin playing for them... Filled in all over the place.
He's on 1/3 of the money we were paying Mbye last year and is Twice the footballer....
Get real... Best signing we've made in a dogs age.... Fills in anywhere on the park bar maybe wing and prop.
Not only does he fill in, He can actually contribute.
Smart, Smart signing.
Agree with the above - also you can get away with not playing a dummy half on the bench with Peachey and Hastings in the team, being able to interchange between 6 and 9
I hadn't thought about this but it may mean they don't need a hooker on the bench.
He covers so many positions and would be above average in most of them.... Fills in a 9, No hooker on the bench, Can ball play at 13, Centre or second rower at a pinch, Covers halves...
Unless he starts dealing crack, There is seriously no downside to this signing - and he's in our 17 every week.
One of the most effective utilities in the comp.
He is a Mbye replacement but probably better and half the cost. The only problem is we are also paying Mbye. The risk is that he is at the backend of his career. Do we get a couple of golden years. Can anyone remember Jason Smith ? He had some quality plays when he was old and maybe physically past it.
I wouldn't be surprised if we used the last of lasts years cap to pay Mbye out.... Word was we had money, No one came - So someone got Front loaded...
My bet it was Moses.
He's gone.
I think Pascoe got another shipping container of hats in.
I think that's the dumbest comment I'll read today...
Thanks
