From what I've seen, it's the high ball and positional play that worry me about McDonnell too though. Eden is younger, British, and has more potential IMO. Like I say, I hope to be proved wrong.

With regards to Hudds, I have a sneaky feeling that Anderson may be ruffling feathers and some players perhaps don't want to play for him.

Maybe it is Nathan Brown being found out - his recruitment/players not really very good. We will find that out next year at Saints.

If Goldies shoulder is ok get him signed up.Looks like he is after 2 years instead of the 1 we are offering.

Not fussed on Eden, said last year I thought he was massively overrated, tonnes of erros in his game. Billy Slater myarse!

Not a chance it should be two years! If we sign him it's a stop gap for a year, we would we want to go giving him two?

A player will come available during the season, they nearly always do. We should bide our time.

I'm still hoping we wont need to sign McGoldrick .

Re: More rumours : Wed Nov 14, 2012 2:42 pm  

Mcgoldrick would be waste of a signing, he isn't good enough for a team hat wants to in he top four, we already have Horne signed on as the halfback and FB cover.

After horne I woud rather see shall and nicklas play to see what they can do.

Re: More rumours : Wed Nov 14, 2012 3:11 pm  

If McGoldrick's shoulder is ok and he will sign for a year I would take him.

If he insists on two years we should say no thank you and wait to see who becomes available.

We have added Holdsworth and still have Horne, Seymour and Heremia for the halves, where would be fit in ?

I wouldn't want to sign McGoldrick and then find we can't fit in a top HB if one becomes available because of his wage.

We already have an improved HB pairing over last year, lets see who becomes available.

Our first choice halves will be Seymour and Holdsworth with Horne and possibly Nicklas as cover.

Horne will also be covering full back.

IMO Heremaia should be spelling with Houghton at hooker, not acting as a makeshift scrum half.

If we can get McGoldrick cheap enough he can cover both full back and half back and I think that would be good business.
