Quote ="snowie"it baffles me this signing, I ain't a anti Kear fan as I'll stand by the 'he was the best coach at the time' but I just don't understand why he keeps signing previous players that he was worked with,
a pay as you play contract does justify his arrival but has he played other roles than full back ?'"
Tony is tough as teak Nicknamed Coconut Head by the Kiwi team, can play hooker, halfback, loose forward, or fullback (but i doubt he will get a run there these days.
Given the nature of the contract I think it is a reasonable deal, he takes no quota spot and need only be used if he proves himself and so only gets paid if he proves he is worth it.
Cant see a problem personally. Its a no lose situation for Trinity.
