I thought the latest news on Ayshford was that he's staying at Wests? I agree upto this year he was a standout player ready for Origin games at least.
Time is running out for 2013 and I think Carmont for one year is possibly the best option. Then let GH concentrate on signings for 2014.

Each year GH goes on a scouting trip to Aus with a view to making signings for the next season only to then add a sound bite about the fact its not bound to be a player for the next year but that he's also looking for the year after that.....and so it goes on. With all his recent trips you'd have thought he'd have come up with more than Cross and Achurch these last 2 years

I agree with you. I just hope he's learnt his lesson this year that you can't leave any quality signings to the 11th hour.

Can't see GH spending anything again while we're current SL and World champions.

I honest believe that he thinks that our titles will be enough to make his 10K season ticket target without having to pull a big name signing out of the bag.

Anyway aren't we still waiting for Danny Buderus' replacement? I remember GH saying that he wouldn't let him go until we had an equal or better replacement.

Still waiting Gary!!!

They're not quite the same are they?

Senior hasn't played in over a year, Carmont played 22 times last season and scored 17 tries and 11 assists.

I'm not saying he's the gold standard solution at centre, but he's a far more realistic option than Senior. Time to move on.

By the time the new season kicks off it'll been 21 months since Senior last played in SL, that's a very long time, especially at his age.
