Completely agree, but as it says talks are ongoing and maybe money talks here.... all i've been told is we're almost there but he wants maybe longer deal than is currently on the table. I have nothing concrete and don't claim to, just been told thats all....  |

If he can't be tempted away from Oz then fair enough we can't do much about that. If he, Kimmorley or Finch do come to the UK then our club must be the destination for one of them otherwise we've failed totally and deserve to suffer as a result. No more half measures acceptable in the SH position. |

Orford was born in 1978, so he's 31 now, if he wants more than a two year deal then we best stay well clear.

Well it seems it's either pay big for 12/24 months or let him have 3/4 yrs teaching the youngsters a thing or two!! |

I don't think we can afford to carry an ageing half back, people want a world class talent, preferrably somewhere near their best form, Orford won't be that when he's 34+. |

Personally, I think we're not far from being in a position where we can't afford to and might have to risk taking the hit of a year too many. |

How old was Johns and Jones when they was over here...more so Jones as he was still a superb player at his age.

Agree but there is a question of exactly who else is available who is younger. Thorman is here on 1 year to (badly) plug the gap we cant afford to have another situation like that. Very tricky balancing act. |

31 IIRC. Just been about that long and looked a bit rough so seemed older.  |

If its the length of the deal thats a problem a 2 year deal with a 3rd year option is the way to go |

| Quote ="Dave K."Still take up a decent ammount of the salary cap, dont think we can afford to wait until later in the season to make a decison on him. Our main 2010 recruitement (Overseas) should be completed by the end of July IMO.
So far next season we have:
Berrigan
Fiztgibbon
Manu
Hame
Signed on, so we potiantially have 3 more spots is this correct.'"
We only have 2 more spots, the overseas limit is 6 next season. I think we'll sign a scrum half and be looking for another top player, if that doesn't come off I can see us handing another contract 1 year to Cusack or 2 year Moa(depending if he looks the real deal by the end of the year). We also have the option of signing Tony without him been classed as an overseas player but I think we'll leave his contract signing to the end of the year to see how he goes injury wise. |

Thanks, couldnt remember the exact number of overses players. I wouldnt offer Cusack a new contract, he has done an Ok job but not worth a quota spot IMO, he also has age and injuries against him.
Cant see Moa getting another contract with the way his Hull career is going. |
