Will be more of the same next year. Watson will continue signing players who make us less and less attractive to watch. I think his only criteria for what makes a good half or dummy half is that they unquestioningly follow his game plan and are good in defence. I heard last night that Leigh are trying to sign Brodie Croft from Salford. We should be throwing everything at a signing like that, but he's far too exciting a player for Watson. I have little doubt that the rumour about us signing Powell from Wigan is true and we will end up with him. Exactly Watson's kind of player, never gets near the Wigan team unless they have a rash of injuries/players out of form, no attacking flair or pace. He also seems to think that experience of playing in big games automatically makes you a better player. Guess what, every team carries deadwood, the fact you are playing in a team alongside great players does not make you a good one. Teams like Wigan and Saints will only let you sign their deadwood, not their decent players. We enquired about Miski last year, and i said at the time that would be a great signing but of course they wouldn't let him go! Powell, they will order the taxi and the champagne send off. Wigan must be loving that they can rely on us to lap up their deadwood, first Bibby and now Powell!
