age has everything to do with it when you bringing someone over for a final payday

From watching him play and from what people say about him, he's not the sort of player to come for a final pay day.

Sure he's come for money just as most players do as it's their job but if he comes and plays how he can while taking his " final payday" who cares.

He's happy, the clubs happy and the fans will be happy!

Best signing a past it somebody than a nobody in their prime.

Great Signing.

I don't think you'll find too many Leeds fans complaining about the performances Danny Buderus has put in. Some may question whether it was a signing that needed to be made, but his performances since getting here have been at a pretty high standard.

Yeah Britt,Gidley,Puletua,Iro,Smith,Mcvey,Hooper and Farleigh were all past it

hes a good player very solid

waterhouse wouldve been a bit better but hes similar to dallas johnstone

good signing, not great but good

said on radio he is coming as an Italian, hope he has his passport WITH HIM when he arrives

Laffranchi has played quite a bit of prop over the last couple of seasons IIRC.

Brett Hodgson was 32 when he signed for us yet he has been awesome this season.

awesome....really?

Can you be a bit more specific.

No, because he's talking out of his .

Don,t forget the English props who were past it in Ward and Baloo.

31.......poor signing


i made that pretty clear if you bothered to read the whole thread

Not when you take into account our squad situation.

19 of the 33 are under 21, all locally born. We have 25 squad members under 25.

We have a wealth of experienced players due to leave at the end of the season, including one of our club captains.

What Saints need at this present moment in time is experience which is exactly what Laffrinchi will bring.

As I said, you're talking out of your because you obviously know nothing at all about the current squad situation at St Helens.

Experience is a necessity in a team, it is something we are craving at the minute.

I see Oldham have re signed 30 year old Fogerty after a 3 month drug ban. Obviously saints don,t know what they are doing.

Just ignore him, he's a total cock who lives in the dirtiest scruffy town on the earth.

Hasn't this bloke got an on going list of injuiry problems?

No

Cheers. I'm on about someone else then.

He's been out with a ankle injury but it's not a long standing injury. He's back for Monday night.

yes... really.

I can see why some would have a problem with Saints signing a 31 year old Australian. After all, its not like they have a great track record of producing and promoting young British talent, is it?
