who do u think are clubs that have made poor signings this year?
I think the bulldogs is one of the major ones in that they have signed willie mason instead of signing Braith anaster. This could prove costly in the long run especially with the way anaster has been playing lately. To me Anster is playing the best football of his career and i would of thought that the dogs should of let Mason go and kept anaster. I think that the dogs have gambled in keeping mason because mason has only just returned from injury and might not be in form at all. Where as Anaster hasnt been injured or suspended and is playing the best footy of his life. He has a good running game that he has developed during the year and with playing in origin and playing with players like joey that has inspired him to be a more skillful player. Now Anster is of to the roosters and i think he actually might make a huge difference for the roosters. I think the he shouldnt have a problem in filling in Brad Fitlers shoes next year. He actually might lead them through to the grand final next year. Where they might take on the knights :D

I think the Eagles has also made a poor decision in purchasing Matt Orford, when they still have a perfecally good halfback in Micahel Monohan. I dont see Orford make that big of a difference to me it does seem that the Eagles have wasted there money in buying Orford.

I think a lot of the decision on whether the dogs would try and keep Anasta or Mason came down to big Willys marketability, hes an extremely popular player amongst the fans of rugby league.........

Thats it true but u have to think that the fans also like Anaster as well, he is also a very famous name in league at the moment.

It could prove especially bad for Manly if Orford has an ACL injury like it was rumoured

Yeh that is true however manly will always have a handy replacement in michael Monohan.
Did u's see how he played today?
He played brilliantly and practically help Manly make a come from behind performance to beat the broncos.
