| Quote All well and good but if Paul Aiton is to also take the captaincy then he is going to be on the pitch longer than most hookers. Giving Wildie and Davy less opportunities.
Andy Ellis will also need game time'"
Valid point, can't really see him being given the captaincy though. I do think it will be another one of the overseas signings that gets it though. If not then maybe mariano to get it, not through personal choice but just because he seems to be at the forefront of everything the club does recently in the media.

| Well if you want to do hid latest seasons break down be my guest! FWIW I don't think he's a particularly bad signing given his age and bit of versatility. But your guy brought games into it and if think your signing a first team regular NRL 9 then it's not really the case is it.

And, if you click your heels together 3 times and say "we won't finish bottom," it will come true.
Now jog on and we'll see you in Feb; I am particularly looking forward to welcoming you to SL, through the medium of a proper, old-fashioned towelling.

In Aiton's terms it's probably half and half really, though must admit I was a bit surprised with how many games he has played in. Though my comment was also more general and not club / player specific.'"

He's averaged more than 20 games a season for the last 7 years in a competition that only has 24 games in the season, if that's not a 1st team regular I don't know what is!'"
Touchy you lot aren't you! Plus I take it maths isn't your strongest point?
For the 10th time Aiton not a 'bad' signing.

Your welcome
My only point was that it's good to see fans not simply wanting a flush of players from the NRL when you have young lads to fight over a few spots. Which for some reason even for some of the 'bigger' SL clubs isn't the case.

| This is guy is a captain for god sake and a seasoned NRL pro and still young. People moaning about not signing obst don't get me wrong obst is a good player but this guy is a different kettle of fish. This would be a great signing. Look at Tommy Lee from last year. People will moan at owt ! Any news on Tongia lol? Website still to announce anything.

Perhaps if you'd have stuck to that point then, instead of trying to get in a sly dig about the quality of this particular signing, the discussion would have stayed on track?
Just a suggestion.

142 games over 7 years (2004-2011) averages just over 20 games per year, where's your problem understanding that?

Jesus - are you still here?
I expect that somewhere inside your own head, you have a point that you'd like to make; may I suggest that you write it down and get someone you trust to read it back and offer their advice? Once you're certain you can articulate it clearly, post it here and I'm sure you'll get some interesting retorts and rejoinders.
Until that time, I seriously wouldn't bother.

I think what he's trying to say is that based on those figures he's made 103 NRL appearances in a 6 year period and not 142 over 7. Although this is still an avrage of 17 games a year, which, in a 24 game season is certainly not a reserve IMO.

Simply responding to your friend who like yourself is the one jumping back to a point that in fact was brought up by your own supporters in order to have a go... Carry on jumping in by all means though.
