I agree, Wire have made a great move in signing up 3 of the - potentially - best 1/2 back British talent (OBrien being the 3rd) at a time when the imports have dried up. A move which will keep them up at the top when Briers Morley Hodgson etc call it a day.
Of course it helps when your salary cap is on the flexible side.

Oh for Christ sake give the bloke a chance!
The days of marquee signings from Australia have long gone. Get used to it.

I remember us taking a gamble on the cheap for a young overseas scrum half from Harlequins to replace Dennis Moran, wonder how he went on?

The blokes a good player, if you oook at the rest of Super League, Matty Smith and Blake Green will still be up there with the best pairing in SL, people like Hockmonster really wind me up, they obviously dont understand the salary cap, we cant afford state of origin players, but guess what.........neither can anybody else!!!!!!!! Its about signing the best you can and getting that potential out of them, Green has a good kicking game, excellent vision, and a good long and short passing game, he's exactly what we need.
Im not renewing my season ticket though unless we sign Thurston
