Panthers have signed Soward for 2014 on a 4 year deal. They seem to like quantity of signings over quality

I don't even think Soward is much better than Walsh. Or possibly even at all.

I believe you now [MENTION=1771]QUEENSLANDER[/MENTION] can't believe they've given him a 4 year deal. They must de desperate. Guess that means Coote will be at fullback next year

I don't understand the hate for Soward. Sure he's not going to go down as one of the greats, and he's very much a "needs confidence in himself" type player, but I'd rather have Soward in the halves at my club than Prince or Wallace.

I'd rather a half who can play in the line, not have to stay 20m behind it to feel safe.

In Sowies defence, he's picked up a bit of form for the Dragons.

You're kidding right?

No. As I said, I don't beleive him to be a great player, but I still think he's better than most give him credit for, and while there are a number of players I'd rather see play in our halves before him, I definitely think he's better than Wallace or Prince. Under a decent coach, I think he can play pretty well. He was in good form under Bennett.

id take soward over wallace any day of the week. do you guys not remember 2009/2010? the guy was outstanding almost every week. all he needs is a good forward pack, players to run off him and to get his confidence back. hes a little pansy, but hes a very good player.

That's a bit left field.

Gould and Cleary are going to be geniuses if they can get the Panthers to make the finals any time soon.

Soward is one of the most talented players in the game but also one of the dumbest.

Unless he's playing behind a fool-proof structure that absolutely protects him he has very little and his general play-making is even more dire than Wallace's.

To me, he's basically Luke Walsh with a dated premiership ring.

Not really surprised tbh, Gould always finds ways to talk him up.

He is a good player and his got as many premierships as the Storm big 3, should go well.

I'm waiting for the "Bahaha just kidding".... Please tell me that's coming
