Were any good no7s available for non marquee money though? We have to be realistic joining a skint 10th place isnt the deal of the century for a decent young player and its only going to get harder the longer we struggle

I'd go further. Smith admitted that the club knew Clifford was putting himself in the shop window and if he performed a return to the NRL was a strong possibility. No contingency plan it seems.
Brown is a good player, he must be to get in the NZ team but he's a hooker not a half back.

Oh dear, so much for trying to stay positive!! Struggling to see any positives to take going forward into next week, next month, the rest of the year.
It's already looking like it could be a long, long year for the faithful
