But a lot of players got played in that London team what shouldn't have been played but they had no choice yet to sling their youth in & look how that ended.

Well, Wigan certainly saw enough in Sarginson. Rovers did in Dixon, Vea at Saints, McMeekan at Cas, Kaufusi went to Hudds and now has played this year for the Doggies. There was certainly some talent in that team.

Yet more superfluous BS.

Think people need to understand what it is i'm saying. I'm saying that, in this instance, i'd rather we gave Logan the chance than a reject NRL. Yes i'm quite aware that the odd NRL 'reject' has turned out to be decent. But for every Sam Moa, there's 4 or 5 Brett Seymour's.

Some people (luckily nobody at the club) also seem to be talking about him moving to 6 when Pryce retires! Well, again i'd rather HTW be given that chance alongside Sneyd, who by then will have had 2 years at the club and will be in a position of experience to help someone like HTW settle in.

We also have Abdull, who at the moment should be kept mainly in the halves with the odd bit of game time at LF. Giving him the 13 shirt would be silly, the pack is far more demanding and he doesn't possess great fitness & stamina, yet!


So we give Logan the shirt and when he's either injured or not quite up to it, who do we play? Yeaman? who has clearly had his day.
We've signed him, so let's see him play before we slag him off.

IMO Logan is not yet ready to play week in week out in SL.

Not enough to keep in SL though eh?

That's a fair point, I don't particularly agree with it, but it's fair enough.

I'm probably mainly angry about our inability to sign an actual centre. Why can't we?

I'm actually hoping we still sign Inu & Vidot and this kid is just a back up.

I don't know, maybe we have. Let's wait until all our recruitment has been finalised.

Then we can have a reasoned debate on who, or what we don't agree with.

Recent history suggests we can't sign a genuine centre with footwork and a pass. Someone who naturally knows how to play the Centre role. Only Logan at the club that can.

Hasn't Mahe Fonua played a lot in the centre position, I'm sure he played most of his games on 2014 in that position ?

Not sure, played in the centres this weekend I think. Wouldn't mind him & Logan in the centres, two very different types.
