To be fair I've just gone through the thread, nobody said you were wrong...
Sacred Cow - Proctor? Good god no, the absolute definition of a has been. A good player in his day but has been dire for two or three seasons now and has developed a weird trouble causing attitude in recent times. And 34 by the start of next season. Give this one a wide berth.
Dave K. (Hull FC Fan) - Anyone who watches NRL would know ge has been absolutely terrible, he is finished and any SL club signing him would be making a massive mistake, add to this he is 33 and an idiot off the field.
Pat Bateman - He has been out for about 8 rounds beginning of the year and hasn’t stood out in a very poor NRL side. 280 NRL games and 22 Kiwi tests, the blokes had a stellar career to say the least, but is way past his best. I’m not into the whole age thing at times, too many quality players over 30 who are still smashing it, if you’re not good enough then it doesn’t matter what age you are. If a genuinely class player came to us at 32 and we got 2 solid years out of him, whilst they passed on experience to the younger lads then win win. Better than signing a 27 year old who is simply not good enough and binning them off after a season.
Kettykat - Watch NRL on a weekly basis , and I’d still have him in a heart beat, can’t beat experience and a bloke who’s played at the highest level , or should we tempt keegan Hirst back for a second stint as I’ve read he’s just come out of retirement and signed for batley again , sure if you ask nicely he’d oblige.
On another note reading the post again, I would've said you were putting two and two together following his release. Hardly inside information!

| Class never goes he is exactly what we need a player who has played at the top, a leader and captain of NRL teams, I can see nothing but huge positives for some of the younger members of our team.

So you speculated on an OOC player, wow, and this one turned out to have legs, wow again. Not wanting to be churlish, so it was a good guess, well done.
You know what they say, if you chuck a dart you might get a bullseye.

| Not on a mega cash contract, and no 2 year deal Mr Carter ,said they had talked to both J D ,and Miller to see what they though about Proctor before they signed him .The feed back was ,Proctor will give 100% on the park .

Exactly how I see it.
I'm not sure how good he'll be compared to younger days but I expect other players in out team to benefit greatly and improve our whole team.

The thing is that there is nobody in the Trinity camp who has reached anything like that level, he's the kind of player we have not had for a long time. Struggling to remember the last player we had with such a CV. Anybody know? Anthony Tupou, but he was totally wrecked physically where as I don't think Proctor is. Not suggesting Proctor is the player he was but nothing critical touch wood.
His experience and knowledge has to be a positive added to his playing prowess.

| The last player we had with more international caps than him was James Leulai I think.
Heritage would know better of course.
JL - 29
Mark Graham - 28
Ray Price - 22
KP 22
Probably only Price would compare on number of NRL games.

Divdav has every right to feel good about posting something that came true. And to be honest, about anything else he wants to feel good about.
Why the need to put it down?

So who said he didn't? Whose putting him down, I'm not. It was a good bit of speculation, but that's all.
Yet as ever you spectacularly miss who actually did the ridiculing, take a look, it was your latest new best buddy, nobody mentioned clowns or anything else before that point and nobody ridiculed anybody.

Why don't you give it a rest with the saviour complex?

The fact you think it's about you kinda proves the point. It was addressed to everyone.
You know what you do. Just stop it. To use your word it's churlish.

| A one-year contract is a good idea.
If he comes over here to mess about and have a holiday, we're soon shut of him. If he is good, we'll either get him for longer or get a good year out of him, both of which are good options.
He'll know that if he messes about, his career is done, so I'm optimistic.

Fingers crossed. Well known i have my reservations but there is no denying his experience and past playing record. The deal seems a sensible one and if he's fit and focussed and coming here for the right reasons then it may well pay off, if not then getting rid at the end of the year isn't a problem. Proctor & gamble i suppose.
I'll get my coat.

| Now it's been announced feels like a real positive signing. Agree with the 1 year deal comments and doesn't commit us to much if it goes wrong.
Hope he enjoys his time here and we get the best out of him. Feel like he can elevate the group and its a statement to others who might be in talks with the club.

It could be an excellent signing. There’s a degree of risk but if he comes fit and motivated he could impress in superleague.
