Parra signings 2011.

I dont know if im on my own on this one but im starting to think if we are becoming a team of pensioners and wasting our money on 'has beens' on 1 year contracts where we could be signing up and coming players that have talent for 3-4 year contracts

 

Any Thoughts????

  • so true, although i dont mind the signing of walker. what we need is a bloody half, so why doesnt parra stop wasting money on wingers and centers when they can focus on matching cronks deal from melbourne. i think cronk is on the way to parra, just after his contract finishes

  • I don't know if we are really in the position to gamble on untested players. What we need is a change in culture and I believe we have more chance of this signing a few guys with experience.
    Experience counts for plenty, and I'm sure it will help us on the right path after the season we just had.
  • i just wanna see parra play consistently for once

  • I agree - a good analysis Nathan

  • As Nathan Taylor has said above, I don't think that the signings are as bad as some people purport them to be.
    Each player brings experience to the table in Walker, Hicks,Maitua and Atkins in positions that we need it most in light of Grothe's retirement and Tahu's pending sacking.
    Not to mention the talent pool building up at NYC level and NSW Cup level, all of which will hold the team in good stead for the future.

"Parramatta chose Joash over Sexton so both happy.
You don't have much of a thought when it comes to footy do ya. It takes a little more then one full game in the six to be a six. "
