    awesome but another young bloke with potential more rebuilding SIGH also for a second i imagined a left flank with carney at LB and a carney at LW (teams would have a field day Shudder).

    You are guilty of exaggeration. Watson is way below boring.

    Calver was showing a fair bit of promise at LB last year until some breakout performances from Gersbach left him below in the pecking order. I'd rate him in the same league as Cowburn/Jackson with qualities of both. Would get plenty of starting runs with us and possibly a left footer? I agree the others are fringe first graders and the article hinted no one wanted to leave although they might be forced to. Been impressed with O'neill when he's played.

    Pretty sure we have our limit of Overseas players so any player swap could only be with locals.

    For sale. Slightly used traffic cone. Ideal for defence drills where demonstration of what NOT to do is required. Guaranteed not to tackle and damage a valuable attacker but will move in ever decreasing circles as confusion grows. Injury free and holds an Aussie passport. Will swap for a used waterbottle or Brosque's sweaty sock.

If he's useless, he's gone in March anyway and we're no worse off. If he's good enough, we may just have a reliable attacker already signed for next season and it's one less to worry about in the off-season.
    Its not about signing sure things.

    It is about the unwavering belief that Miller should have in a player when he signs someone to the club that they are what he wants to be working with to turn this club around on the park.

    This is a $1 each way gamble.

    There is nothing in it that says Millertime is 100% wanting this bloke at the club as a key component of stopping the rot on the pitch.

    FFS We have a squad full of blokes he doesn't believe in.

    Why sign anyone that he doesn't have 110% faith that he wants here??

    Also anyone coming in right now should not be a bandaid solution for this season which is basically ****ed anyway. They should be a permanent part of his plans for next season and beyond.

    Brillant and on the subject of Watson did anyone else notice that when poijak or the CBs have the ball he tends to move or run right into them or circle them in their position instead of moving into space

    yer but he is on 6 months deal so he has to prove he is the goods right away and earn a longer stay instead of being on a long deal and not being pressured to perform

    Yet again you seem to be missing the point of what everyone is interested in.

    In your infinite wisdom can you name someone, or at least give an example, who we can sign that matches your lofty criteria as a good player?

    Has to be available for free?

    Has to be on less money than what we have in the cap?

    Has to be willing to move to Newcastle and play for our basketcase club?

    Has to be better than who we have?

    Fire away and see how quickly people poke holes in your post, just as you do with everyone elses.

    You're right. He should have signed him on a 10 year contract.

    Currently Uncontracted

    Currently has another job and wouldn't cost top $$

    Has to be willing to move to Newcastle and play for our basketcase club?
    Lives in the area and loves the club

    Has to be better than who we have?
    Definitely a step up from Milos and Carney
    Last I looked he is a footballer and not a CEO

    But then again Griff is that good he would do a better job at CEO than anyone we have ever had


    I have given you an example yet you don't want to play now??
