Dont know about you guys but I am extremely dissapointed at our clubs recruiment activities so far this year. We have re-signed Perry for an amount I fear is more than the "take it or leave it" $170,000 original offer. Luke Davico, who may prove to be a Craig Smith type buy (old but experienced) and a one year winger in Brian Carney. When you look at the building/retention going on at other clubs (the Roosters in particular) it is very disheartening to come to the realisation that really we are not going to be much better off next year than this year. Davico has a big question mark over him fitness wise, as does Carney, who according to some British posters here has only played a handfull of games in the past two years due to injury. I hope we have learned an important lesson from all this, that lesson is to do a bit of forward planning in recruitment. Its become blatently obvious that Sarge did some very questionable deals in regards to contract upgrades in the past, and they have cost us dearly for next year. The upside is the progress of players like Mullen. Hinton, Walsh, White etc,and its to be hoped the club ensure these players stay at the club, and are given the chance to progress based on talent and performance.
