Wouldn't matter, any agent worth his salt would let every club know as soon as a player became available.

No he's not. And he offers more at 6 than Horne.

| I wonder if we have missed out on Miller due to our pursuit of Prince?. The time to get Miller was probably when Wests Tigers were in confusion over Tim Sheens leaving.
To be honest, I think Seymour could be better next year (as Finch was this year), but his injury is a massive concern.

In fairness to Seymour, he had a pretty good start to the season. Unfortunately this didn't continue and his performances later in the year weren't really up to the standard required.
Hopefully he's now more settled at the club and area and so has a good season. We often see this happening with many Aussie players - Finch, King, etc - but it should be noted that they we both more successful in Aus than Seymour was.
Whatever happens, I'm fairly pleased. We're signed Holdsworth so we're already stronger in the halves than last year. If we'd have gotten Prince or Miller then it would have been awesome, but I think that we're still looking pretty good.

Yes I did, your point is?
Although technically, as I was talking to a friend who mentioned that he'd seen it, I did hear it didn't I?
Or did you think I was lying to try and make out I'd spoke to him? And this was your attempt at 'outing' me? Well done.

With the greatest of respect you have Seymour who is now painfully aware that his coach/chairman thought nothing of dropping him from the club if Prince/Miller/Chase had arrived.
I can't see him being more settled now than he was at the back end of last season after that.

Pearson said Seymour would have stayed had we signed Prince. Can't quite see how that's dropping him from the club, can you?
Honestly, this is poor trolling, I long for the days of PhilB.

Are you taking the pi$$? If you believe this then your knowledge of RL could be written in 20pt Verdana (other texts are available), in capital letters on a postage stamp....
I guess you would have rather we stuck with Horne so you can continually snipe at poor performances.
The club seem to be doing all they can to bring in the right players yet for some this is not good enough. Remember where we were season before last... season on season improvement is now the task which in turn will attract players of an increasingly higher calibre.
Maybe then you will reflect and see that you really are one miserable old git.

He'll turn Brisbane into contender's, ridiculous decision by Gold Coast.

Could be more developments on Scott Prince saga. His manager Steve Robinson is unaccredited. Expect NRL to take a close look at the deal
Brent Read @brentread_7
Understand Chris Orr was negotiating deal with Hull. Officials over there said he was shocked with Prince's decision to join Brisbane

So you sign Prince and keep Seymour for a laugh.
Come on Pearson would have liked to shifted decent wage off his books after the comments he made about that player if the need for said player diminished.
I have no doubt Seymour is well aware of his chairmans comments about him (A point you pretty much agree with looking at your previous statement in this thread).
As for trolling I wasn't and I generally don't anyway although I can see how you would be confused with your usual posting style on our board.

Pearson shouldn't have made the comments he did, but if he says that Seymour was staying then who are we to not believe him?
If you run a board like a set of muppets you get the trolling you deserve, FFS, even your own fans troll on there.

| Don't see us signing anyone who will significantly improve us now so would rather we went with what we've got. The side should be good enough to consolidate a position in the top 5 or 6, but even with prince or chase I don't see us as being good enough to win trophies. I think wire could be head and shoulders above anyone else next year

Maybe so but Seymour now knows the view of his chairman and I would imagine his coach as well unless his coach and chairman disagree over this.
That was the point I was making when replying to Panda.
Thanks for admitting you troll on the KR board though most interesting.

Still think we could push onto the top four, apart from Wigan and Warington I dont the sides squads are much better than ours, we should have finished in the top 4 last year and IMO have a better squad than than we did last year.

Agreed. Only question is whether we offer Goldie a small deal, but if his shoulder's knackered, not worth it.
Holdsworth obviously first pick, then Seymour, Galea, Heremaia, Horne. Could be worse, in 2009 it was Thorman/Horne then Lee, Washbrook.

On Goldie it would be a no for me, did well and certainly better than I expected in the few games he had for Hull, but isn't good enough at halfback for a team wanting to be in the top 4, his best games came against the lower teams, but looked poor when against the better teams like Wigan and Les Catalans.
I think Seymour showed at the at the start of the season he could play a bit and looked impressive against Leeds at home, he has to be the best option for next season as it stands, and maybe he will look better with a better halfback partner. As backup like you say we have quite a bit of cover, if things don't work out and there is always a chance a player becomes available mid season, so I would save our salary cap in-case this happens.

Got to give the guy credit it appears he is leaving no stone un-turned, as supporters we cannot ask for more than that and I am sure in the next couple of years we will bear the fruits of his hard work.
