I didn't say anywhere that Ian was our worst buy in the last 10 years, I said he shouldn't be in first grade and we had better options available. There's a difference between Ian Hindmarsh with history at the club and a solid workrate and Joe Galuvao who went to Souths for a second chance and was even worse there than he was at Penrith (towards the end of his Penrith career) and now comes to us, a club with more backrowers than we need and not enough props.
You tell me why it's a good buy or is mocking people's opinions all you can do?
Well I may of missed it but I have not seen anywhere that you have admitted you got it wrong on Ian H. You were also very persistant and basically said Ian was a washed up crock, where anyone who saw him in the super league could tell he was carrying injuries but still had plenty to offer. Maybe I mock peoples opinion but I would rather do that than pay out on a player who will potentially offer somthing to our side. I am going to be right behind Joe because I would love to shove it up souths. You do realise we are losing Ian, Cannings, Fa'aoso, Wags the year after and probably Robbo will go after 08 as well, I don't see signing someone on a cheap contract who has proven himself in the nrl and who will also be dead keen to prove a point to some people, as being a problem, considering we need some depth.
I also did not realise a player had to have a history with us to be signed, and who is to say we will not sign another prop for depth. You seem to be quick to write off a player as being hopeless but not quite as quick to admit you got it wrong. People were quick to bag out the Finch signing but have a look at the passion he has bought with him, you never know what a player is going to bring to the table untill they are given a chance.
