Today was a big day in what we all hope will be a very successful recruitment/retention campaign for 2005 and beyond.
Can I just ask one thing though. Let's just wait until ALL of our recruitment/retention is complete for 2005 before we start making rash judgements on whether we paid this player too much or whether we should have gone for this player over that player etc etc etc....
We have to look at the WHOLE picture. Sometimes it's necessary to pay over the odds for a certain player to entice other players to come across as well. There are definitely other positions that need strengthening in our club so i'd like to think Riddell is only one piece of the puzzle for next year.
We'll have to wait and see what happens over the next few weeks. I'll reserve judgement until then.
