there might be nobody like this available on the open market, but id go halfway between your two choices and pick someone in their mid 20s with good first grade experience but not so old they are looking to retire in 3 years as i said i want to see them have a good 4-5 years at the club (not to say if we signed crocker he couldnt play for another 4 years but its unlikely)

Crocker is 28. Hardly over the hill. He can hardly do us any worse than what we had last year.

As usual, other clubs are signing over oneanother to sign him like Canterbury who are a very proactive club while we just watch...

If we sign Crocker we are almost legit top 4 side, but no, i mean, Parramatta getting of there arses to try and snare a rep player forward hahaha

We're useless, but hey we have Burty...nice bloke and stuff..

and what are we going to pay crocker with, an IOU from fitzy? we have nowhere near enough money available to make an offer for him

just for Ronny's benefit, because we all know that Burt flew the planes into the Twin towers and we can never forgive him for it, but Oake and Weller were the last 2 players signed into top 25 squad late last year, who signed them? why did we sign them? should we have known that Crocker, Matua and the like would of been available then? why did Burt kill 6 million jews in 1942?

these are answers I want to know....

Inu would be more then competent, but hey gk's are everything, who cares about scoring trys, we have someone that can kick penalty goals....who has a history of being unable to convert pressure conversions:lol:

so is Hayne? so is INU? ...I'm sure we could snare someone who will play to their worth if we got rid of those 2.

only someone with half a clue would be compare Crossan to Burt.

for a start Burt is our leading try scoring..

secondly..

Northern Eagles at Parra 2002
Cowboys at Parra 2003

from the side line.

warriors at Parra 2003
West Tigers at Parra Golden point 2007
Newcastle fg at Parra 2008

that's only off the top of my head...

i gotta agree with ron on the leading point scorer thing to justify a persons position in a team. crossan and halligan are two crap players that come immediately to mind when i think of high point scorers (though i think burt is a decent winger).

i don't however think he makes enough to be cut and then buy another player that would demand the $$$ that crocker would.

I can tell you now, if we offered Burts money to Crocker..he'd laugh at us.

but no..it has to be Burts fault, no other person to blame.
