Without being disrespectful to our current players i think the last big name signing we made that genuinely filled me with excitement was Solomona. I know its hard to get players when on limited finances, but you have to watch on in admiration of other clubs ability to atract the top names.

And there I was thinking that this franchise bullsh@t was all about an end to putting the games money into the pocket of overseas players and giving out own players a chance. Wigan are another example why are they looking to replace Smith with another overseas stand off when they have young Tomkins

TBF I would love to have players of this quality coming to Wakey, albeit with fewer overseas players - just better quality.

I thinbk that is what the Giants are trying to do.



Less overseas players but better quality.



If you look at our oveseas stars they are all better than the ones previously.



2008 Whatuira

2009 Brett Hodgson

2010 Fa'alogo

as much as I hate to say it Huddersfield are growing into a good side and the future for them is looking good.

Looks a good signing, some of the over seas signing so far this season have been top draw in my opinion.



Puletua being the main fantastic signing.



Shame ones like Eastwood or Crocker didnt come off. Would have improved the league even more.



Cant wait to see this new huddersfield signing and saints capture of Sia Soliola.

When Wigan were in trouble the other year near the bottom of the table

I can remember Noble bleating on and on about how he would love to put youngsters in the side and not have to spend loads on aussies because of the threat of relegation , so he got his wish and they won't go down , but still thinks Smith's got to get the nod before Tomkins . Just another poor player who probably can't believe his luck !

would be great to have a salary cap like huddersfield!

All teams have the same Salary Cap.

You do

Wigan will be replacing Leuleui in the halves not Tomkins.

I did not realise that 'shoulders' was only 23. Jonh, do you rate him?- just out of curosity.
