While Mansour would be a walk up start in our team he would probably expect rep money at this stage and we've already got one grossly overpaid winger at the club so we don't need another one. I'd take Mansour on $300k but no more than that. He'll probably sign elsewhere for way more though.
On the topic of what we need at the club at the moment I think we really need to get our hands on a creative forward or two, someone who can ball play a bit and throw an offload. We must be the worst team in the comp for second phase play, which in part I put down to the coaching because I have a feeling Brown is trying to keep things simple, but it's so frustrating seeing us do the same predictable crap in attack every week where the opposition just needs to tackle the legs of the guy with the ball and the play dies right there. There are those rumours that we're looking at Luke Lewis, I think he would be a good signing based on what we're lacking, he's got the passing skills of a half/centre and is also a line-breaking back rower who doesn't shirk his duties in defence either.
It's becoming clearer and clearer that letting Cuthbo go was a bad move, he was our most creative player by a long shot, his offloads made us harder to defend against every week and he injected some energy coming off the bench.
I'm not sure who else is on the open market as far as this type of player goes, can anyone provide an update of what's out there?
