Phil Blake, Allan Langer & Greg Mackey?

Phil Blake played a couple of short term seasons. Not available when it mattered most.
Allan Langer went home before the end of his contract.
Great Mackey did about 12 weeks and returned so you could say him...dis we ever win a trophy in that 2nd coming?..

We really have had no luck with aussie halfbacks for decades...if ever even!!

Langer played for a full season 2000. Played 55 games in total.

Nathan Wood(s), I can never remember if there is an "s". Not suggesting he was a superstar but he did the job.

Kelly Shelford was good.

Kelly Shelford was from NZ

Yes but once again not a full contract but you're bang on with one full season.

Really we are desperately trying to find one. It does nothing the say that aussie star backs...omitting Nat Wood, are a poor return.

id throw the bank at shaun johnson if he's available.

No question.
He's awesome.
By and large we've had better returns £ for lbs from NZ imports.
They seem to have an honour that is lacking with Aussies.

Massive generalisation but I think the Kiwis embrace the opportunity of living abroad more readily than their Antipodean cousins.

Hasting Jennings, Giants dropped out and now Salford are interested. Is he someone we would be interested in.

He looks a real risk. Fighting with team mates history.

Didn't see " the full contract" section in your original question.

Said something like full term.

Yes just like Peta Hiku

How does the salary cap work these days?

Could we just take quality players like Hiku and Hastings for a few months to keep them fit and on the market and replace them with others in the same boat (on the same plane) afterwards, on a continuous basis?

I'd have no problem with that!

And Richard Henare

You can always find a couple but we both know we could list a whole lot of NZ players that have been great servants.

By and large, we've had better returns £ for lbs from Welsh imports.
They seem to have an honour that is lacking with Aussies.

What’s the £ for lb value on our sole Scottish import, recently departed?

2 kippers

He has found his plaice in the Championship. His SL career was a red herring.

I’m not sure why Smith persisted with him, must have done it just for the halibut.

I think as a grouper you're all lacking in sole but my shoal concern is the future.
