| My team is more guilty than many others but if we don't get the overseas quota down to a max of three per club we will NEVER have enough Tallent available to be the best in the world.

| Quote SaintsFan="SaintsFan"What have you got against Lomax and Gaskell? Neither has played a full season at first grade yet (and Lomax had never played at 7 before 2011) but Lomax still got Young Player of the Year award so presumably he showed some talent!
Gaskell has pulled off some beauties in terms of his kicking but is still raw and needs time. There could be other halves out there too but they will all be in the same position because we have no halves out there who are older than them but capable of playing at international level.
More teams need to focus on bringing young players through in our key positions rather than doing what Wigan have done yet again and importing to the backline. There will be centres, wingers and halfbacks out there but only a few teams are bringing them through at present.'"
I have nothing against them, just don't think they will be International class, sorry about that

| I think we lack a half back combination that is prepared to run at the line and inject some pace into the back line. I'm a Cas fan and chase shouldn't have been SH. Yes he's had an outstanding season for us but playing at SO with and experienced SH inside him.
Having seen lomax a few times this season he plays with pace and isn't afraid to take the line on, the same can be said for brough. Widdop MUST play at SO. We need to get some dog into our defence and as much as it pains me to say it, someone like Ryan bailey could have added that.
Why we stand off the Aussies and let them play, continually kick to a player instead of into space, we don't slow them down at the ptb. All these things they do to us but we don't/won't reciprocate! As the old adage goes...get into them!

We have high hopes for Joe Mellor. I'm hoping he's blooded in the first team this season because if there's one critism of MM he didnt blood some some of the younger players last season when he could/should have.

| F me, utter trash. Got to be the worst HB pairing Ive ever seen for England. How many chances to Sinfield need to be given at this level. He's not upto it, no matter where he plays, 6, 9 or 13. Crap.

| Widdop should have played 6 and Brough should have played 7. Bloody Sinfield and Chase.

Ok. Different question. Why do you think they won't be international class (whatever that means) after not even a full season at first grade and having not watched them in every match of that season?

Stop being paranoid. I've just learned that Wigan have just signed a foreign centre. Had Hull FC just announced the signing of a foreign centre then I would have referred to Hull FC.

From what I have seen, I don't think they look particularly good at Rugby League and won't pose any threat to any Australian side. Is that OK with you?
Obviously I bow to your superior knowledge as you are right, I haven't watched them in every match of the previous season - have you been stalking them all year to make sure you know the ins and outs of everything about them? I look forward to you having absolutely no opinion on any opposition side or player next year seeing as you won't have seen every match of theirs. The forums will be a much better place without your drivel.
