good bloke, good player , can play in almost any position and has a wealth of experience . don't see any problem with this myself.

My concern is who is likely to get in the match day squad given all things being equal formwise. Tony or Annakin?

I think this is an ok signing dont forget boys he can play fullback,winger,hooker,looseforward and to an extent . So hes a good squad player to have around when the inevitable injury crisis hits!

This is a sensible signing for the club.

Blaymire is rumoured to be leaving, Vievers is OOC, and there is no evidence to suggest Tongia will get a new deal as we haven't seen him play for us yet. At Hull Motu made the full back position his own, and leaves us with our first specialist full back for 2012, and before people mention Murphy the lad is a specialist centre who wants to play centre! Tony will have been signed as an out and out full back.

1. Tony
2. George
3. Murphy
4. Mellars
5. Tongia

That obviously assuming George and Tongia stay. However, I can't see George playing second fiddle and playing out on the wing so swap him and Mellars around?

Tony will probably end up playing at 13 anyway!
