It’s sad, but the KFP reference actually adds to it. Imagine reading any serious CEO attempting to sign players literally from another sport at a fishing competition. Part of the problem, I’m afraid. The solution appears very much that Chambers and Burgess continue uninterrupted, time to move on from KFP.

Fitzpatrick at his finest in that article.


There`s so much spin in there that it is making me dizzy.

I'm prepared to give everyone a chance and hope that it works out for the player and the club but just to recap according to the article it's a shrewd piece of business because of the following,

1 He's big
2 He's second in the offload department behind some bloke from Huddersfield
3 He's cheaper than anyone would have expected
4 He has some pals at the club
5 His performances are improving of late most notably against us  

6. He's overweight and unfit but Ade Gardner will sort him out. 

Let's see how he goes. 

What stood out for me is he is only here because his move to Union fell through.

In truth I doubt any SL club is the 1st choice for an aspiring NRL player. It's more borne from necessity.
