Yeah it's not like we've been signing any young players.

I mean look at the oldies we've signed in the last couple of years. Arona, Sopoaga, Dietz, Gagan, Mexico and Politoni to name a few.

Some of these guys are at the ripe old age of 25!

I am one of the biggest flan no haters in the world champ. I despise him and wish he was sacked 2 years ago.

But youth isn't always the answer mate. You need a balance. We can't have a squad of all 20 somethings, because then you get the canberra raiders. But you can't have a squad of all late 20s or 30s, because you get us and the knights.

Finding a balance is hard and that is why the coach is paid the big bucks to sort that **** out, which is why flanno isn't worth a pinch of ****.

But you do need your Gallens and your Heinos and your Lewys to bring the experience and the calming influence (lol robbo reference) What I'm getting at is that age shouldn't dictate who we sign, the skill of the player at the time should and what we can afford to pay them, i am a lichaa fan and wish we kept him, but not at 300k. Thats one flanno got right.

Signing kids like Holmes and Brown are more important and giving them a taste soon is important.
