I know Quinny will be disappointed with this one!

I'm a big Derickx fan, but I'm indifferent when it comes to McGuane and Matty White.

They had to get rid of 1 of White, Derickx, McGuane and Post. Surprised it wasn't McGuane instead of Post

Same, we definitely need derickx as back up otherwise we'd have been flowered!

Despite saying that I'm indifferent on McGuane (which I still am), I honestly have always preferred him to Post.

Still not sure how White gets a game. If he wasn't quick he would be the worst player in the comp.

I would have thought that Post gerts a game in front of White or McGuane. interesting!

Hahah am I that obvious toga?

Not fussed with Derickx or Whitey. I would have kept Post over McGuanne though.
Ive noticed a lot of people on the facebook page etc are annoyed with these signings but we need to remember that these guys wont be playing. They are back up for injuries, thats all. Cant have only guns and kids. Every team has their fringe players.
If were suddenly struck with a run of injuries half way through the year when were sitting in the top 4 we dont want to have to bring in a bunch of kids that have never played

I reckon Dimma has a trick up his sleeve with this lot.
