But Hindy111 says we need blistering speed and that we haven't produced a decent outside back since Hayne, unlike the Panthers. Wouldn't French address both of these issues?

Nathan Brown play for Melboring???
Who would he replace in the backline?
You'd have to check on Hindy's player power rankings mate - I think Gutho has only ranked a "solid" so he could probably be replaced.
Will Smith.
Actually, given that he has been playing 6 at Wigan and is in line for the English Dally M, that might not be the worse option we consider.
I saw that. I said when he was with us he might make a decent 6. That said, it's the ESL and the defence is probably still shocking there compared to NRL, and I doubt BA would consider it. Also I doubt he'd come to us for backup money when he's doing so well over there, even if he's homesick. And I reckon there's other NRL clubs more likely to offer more and where he's a better chance of playing more regularly.
George Williams.
Looks to be a bit bigger and I've seen him make some strong tackles. Haven't watched a lot of them though.
Well, since Hindy111 said it, there's no point in me saying otherwise.
Bevan French isn’t coming back from the ESL to be a backup and get maybe 1 - 2 games a year. He will go to the Dogs, Titans, Warriors or Tigers.
And talk about protecting the head of players - turns out it was just talk. As someone said, and its as clear as day, that NAS deliberately targeted the head of Niukore with his shoulder and he cops a fine. What a f**king joke! It was worth 4 weeks to a serial offender and esp after N Brown copped 2 weeks for an accidental head shot yet someone tried to take Cleary's head off and did not even get penalised over same weekend. So much inconsistency from the MRC and now Niukore gets charged with crusher for minimal pressure on the neck and which you see during every match.
And rip us a new one when we meet them. Sorry to see him go as had so much potential.
No he won’t. The guy is quick but hates collisions.
He definitely wasn't a fan of the collision when he was last here, however he has matured as a footballer since then so who knows... Moses wasn't a fan of the collision when he joined us either.
Even if he does suddenly enjoy contact sport he is not coming to us to be a backup fullback or half and get a couple of games a year.
