That's a subtle distinction for you, innit? If you could, then surely you would...? I agree about not panic-buying someone for the sake of it though. An opportunity is bound to arise eventually, and if you have the cap/quota space and/or fee at the ready, then you'll be best placed.

Peaked too early today with my hoes. Feeling poorly too.

I can see the point in pushing the boat out for quality in Prince, which IMO was vindicated by the fact Broncos have got him on a 2 year deal. Miller perhaps, although I'll not pretend to know anything about him other than what I've seen on the internet. ATETOD we've added Holdsworth and Galea, which is not too shabby in terms of adding creative options vs last year. Someone at another SL or NRL club will get fed up mid season as you say. Save the money.

didnt somebody claim that there would be a signing happening in November , but not before due to there current club ?

Is this still the case

Think that was Bitv Biff, who later confirmed the player was Bateman.

So in which case,no.

I doubt AP and Gentle would panic buy. Their recruitment seems to be well thought through so far, they know exactly what type of player they're looking for.

I think so, when compared to somebody from London who can run fast, someone from Batley who we've never heard of and someone from Oz who's serving a very long ban. Quality choices boy!!!
