Paul Gallen is a bigger joke signing than Willie Mason. The guy is simply nowhere near the level he was 3 seasons ago, and will be 34 next season. No way jose!
This is the thing about our situation; we are better spending nothing than buying crap. When you buy crap, you chew up potential free space under the cap for the following season when some quality might become available, and you hold your juniors back another year. We'd be better off with a team full of rookies, that will be better for the run, than signing junk from other clubs.
