Quote ="bren2k"Fifita has that big daft lad schtick down to a tee - but the contribution to morale of a player with his level of destructive power and sense of enjoyment is immeasurable; he's become a fan favourite, and I'd wager that his teammates also love having him around. One of the best signings we've made in a long time.
Meanwhile, Grix and Finn absolutely bossed that game; Finn is like a metronome - he just keeps ticking away doing exactly what's asked of him, without being spectacular or grabbing attention; and Grix has just the right combination of brains, skill and bottle - he almost invariably does the right things at the right time in the right way - and there's huge value in that.'"
Funny you should say that because the first time I really noticed what a smart player Finn was was when he was paired with Grix playing for Ireland (I already rated Grix). Can't be a coincidence that we made great efforts to sign both. Although the connectivity between the two was more obvious at International level because Grix played S/O they do still play well together.
In Wood, Grix and Finn we may have signed three bargain basement players but together they make a top notch 3 for ten pound deal - brilliant work. Don't know totally who's reasonable as Finn was a Smith signing but credit to all.
