I've been following the commentary re marquee signings. It would appear that the Dragons will have enough money to make major plays at a couple of targets. And that got me thinking. How many "guns" have we actually signed in the last decade or so?
Boyd was good but he had only played a handful of internationals. Not really a marquee signing. We knicked Jeremy Smith off the Storm. He was an established international. Craig Smith, back in the day, was a big signing. Who else?
It's great that we produce our own youngsters and our talent identification is second to none. But you know, we may need to actually sign someone next year to be a serious contender. History would indicate that sadly, that won't occur. We'll miss out on everyone!!
Thought please?
