At what cost? You do realise that we operate under a salary cap?

We sign him and can kiss goodbye to a number of other players. I prefer the Storms approach, a core of great team players in the essential positions 1, 6, 7 & 9, add some solid players and/or game breakers with the rest made up of cheaper up and comers or offcasts from other teams that Bellamy believes can be improved.

If Watmough can back it up for the next few years then i would consider him a really good player. Untill then he is just an average player who had one good year.

I seem to remember a few people bagging Finch also!!!!!

I would love to see him in the second row with Sika.. thats one hell if a back row.
Hoffy in at Lock as he is good with his lines and has the ball skills of a centre, would be good to have an attacking forward pack.

Personally I think that would almost me the most attacking pack in the game.
Blair, White, Simth, Sika, Watmough and Hoffy.....Mmmmmm The Damage
Lets make League viable in Melbourne.

Yeah i remember plenty here not wanting Finch cause he was just a average player that was no required until he put on that Storm jersey, now look at him go, amazing what that jersey has done to him  ;-) ah well you are going to get that here.

As for that forward pack, we would not lose a game all season.

He's 27 as well next year, so he's no spring-chicken.

Trade Dallas' defence for Watmough's turnstile and we will lose close games we would previously have won.
We must all hang together or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately
