We can't knock Agar for signing SL proven players, who we know can play half and hooker, rather then taking a chance on a lower league player who has limited experience in the position and who might not be good enough! Briggs shone because he played in his position, would he have done just as well at hooker? Maybe so, probably not.

We signed a lower league head coach to see if he was good enough

| Quote ="A unknown superstar"So we'd rather sign Sam Obst for a year, than bring in a 22 year old gareth Moore who everyone can see has potenial and can learn from Longy.
Great!'"
The Gareth Moore that has so much potential that precisely no Super League club has come in for him?
If he was that good, he'd've been picked up by now and if he is that good, then there must be off-field reasons why no-one's picked him up.
The logic on here does amaze me at times:
We need a half back. Gareth Moore is a half back. Therefore we need Gareth Moore.
About the same as:
My cat has four legs. My dog has four legs. Therefore my cat is a dog.

Nice analogy but total nonsense I'm afraid, especially in the context of signing Obst.
We need a half back.
We can a) sign an ageing mediocre Aussie on a two year deal who at least we have a fair Idea what we will get from him.
or
b) take a chance on a highly rated young prospect from the national league who may fail miserably at this level but could far exceed what Obst provides and remain at the club for the best years of his career.
Both are valid and logical choices IMO.

I still can't get away from the fact that no-one has come in for him despite months and months of opportunity.
Agar's judgement may very well be suspect but the fact that no-one else has come in for Moore means that every other head coaches' judgement is suspect too.

Or possibly the fact that most other clubs are all pretty much sorted for Half Backs so he is not on any ones radar??

Possibly, but being British, Non-Quota, Fed-Trained and cheap(ish), would still make him an attractive proposition to a lot of clubs if he was that good.
