Ben Ross?
With him being forced out of Penrith at the end of this year, why didn't the Titans try and sign him for 2007? With him being a QLD boy, I think he would've been interested in it, and he would've made an excellent partner for Luke Bailey.

My thoughts exactly PARANoIR.
I was very dissapointed that the Titans didn't go after Ben Ross and Ashley Harrison.
Surely they would have been perfect signings...both Queenslanders as well.JOIN THE NEW FORUM AT https://www.titansupporters.com/forum/

Ashley would have been a great signing and possible young captain. There was a bit of a bidder war for him though, I'm not sure how much value for money it would have ended up as.

Costs maybe??
Harrison from all reports wasnt cheap.... Either was Ross.
Perhaps they have their money already budgeted and dont want to blow it on players they havent already thought about.

Ash Harrison would have been looking at big money at Roosters or Rabbits so i guest that could be a reason :confused: but Ben Ross was signed by the sharks only a day or 2 after he was released by penrith.

Harrison would have been worth the money on his recent form but Good players can look great when surrunded by average players

Yeah Harrison's another one as well. He's definitely someone that the Coast could've built the side around.

He apparently went to Easts for A LOT less money than what Souths offered him.
