So when we signed Marty, Walker etc were they off contract or did they leave their deals early?

Nature of contracts in the NRL means that players 2 years off contract are fair game

 

[BoomStickBarbie]

I can’t believe people are wanting Croker for next year the guy is a shambles. Lucky none of you guys are in negotiations to sign or re-sign players.

 

[KNUCKLES]

These are the players on contract for next year
Tom Trbojevic
Brendan Elliott
Kane Elgey
Daly Cherry Evans
Addin Fonua Blake
Apisai Koroisau
Marty Taupau
Curtis Sironen
Jake Trbojevic
Taniela Paseka
Corey Waddell
Morgan Boyle??

Definate extensions
Manase Fainu
Reuben Garrick
Albert Hopoate
Moses Suli ?? Depending on $$$

I think des should sign these 3/4 now before their price goes up. I would consider putting Api on the market also.There should be alot movement for us this season in recruitment.. hopefully some quality comes in!

Geez there is some dead wood on that list.

Trouble is no one other than Titans will come to our club.

Might s well re-sign all those on base money and punt the rest.

What we need is either george Jennings or Feki for wing. Let Walker go and get Aiken in and must buy for next year is a blake green type foil for dce..

DCE's Mrs must keep asking herself where the **** all the foil keeps disappearing too

The real gig would be either Rapana or Oates, then the game changes - wingers in the midern game = Massive importance

The next generation


Manly may regret letting Frank Winterstein go to Penrith - the big man looked the goods in his Panthers debut in the win over Newcastle last weekend.

But Sea Eagles insiders are excited about the man who will replace Winterstein - rookie back-rower Haumole Olakau'atu.

A member of the Sea Eagles’ premiership-winning 2017 NYC side, Olakau'atu is still very raw but could develop into an exciting running edge forward.

I think we let go as much dead wood as possible, bring up the young talent coming through and splash out on a gun winger or centre. 5/8 is a weak spot too, but i think cade cust or metcalf will step up in another year if Elgey fails

Aiken
Oats

Agreed. We may need another backrowers if JT leaves as well

Tbh I wouldn’t go near G. Jennings or Feki. Feki is very similar to Taufua and all the Jennings bros are quite bulky themselves. I think it’s time to move toward speed and if available, height. Obviously need some power but we have too many Feki types in our squad.

There’s only so much size a team can have, talent is what we need IMO. Aitken wouldn’t be bad, although a gutho or will hoppa return wouldn’t be a bad option either

Jumping the gun here just a tad but I reckon we need another half plus two centres depending on walker. Something like this team would be great imo. Not farfetched very achievable I think.
1.Trbojevic
2.Garrick
3.Aitken / Gutherson
4.Staggs (Walker)
5.Hopoate
6.Cherry Evans
7.Townsend
8.Fonua Blake
9.Fainu
10.Taupau
11.Waddell
12.Sironen
13.Trbojevic

14.Haumole
15.Gosiewski
16.Boyle
17.Paseka

I would like to add R Martin but prob wouldn't fit in cap if we chased a Townsend for eg. I think Townsend should be seriously considered by someone in recruitment as he is what we need, not too expensive, and has young Flanagan on his tail

Hopefully Schuster will be thereabouts by next season as well.

So those 11 + 24 off contract + 2 spots to fill (Boyle is one of those and surely also contracted for next year) = a lot more than 30

Is JT following Barrett to the dragons later this year? Tommy as well?
