Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Need to remember he wanted to come to Australia, signed with a local agency, who offered him to half the league. It's not as if we'd been scouting him on our own accord for a while and targeted his signing. Ours was the best offer he had on the table. I imagine some other clubs may have offered him 2 year deals so maybe it was the 3rd that got him over the line.

He might end up being a backrower, 193cm is a good frame to build off.

I could see backrow working out.

We need both back rowers and props.
 
So end of year we're definitely losing :
Tamou, Luciano and Kelma.

Possibly losing:
Mikaele, Garner, Offa...

And we've signed Papali'i.

We're so short...
Unless we're relying on the young fellas.
We need to make some signings LOL.


8 Stef
9 Api
10 Musgrove
11 Papali'i
12 Blore
13 Peachy / Hastings

14 Seyfarth
15 Twal
16 Tuki
17 Rua


This is what we will be working with at this point with minimal depth unless we recruit some talent.
 
The young pom really likes using his shoulder, good to see albeit at 10 levels below flegg or knee.

Team is abysmal. If we can't recruit I think we will be forced to shift someone like AD or Hastings to lock, Offa to prop rotation if he stays and peachy to an edge.

Spot on Demps. That's a worrying prospect. We will be bottom 4 if we trot out that pack and bench. Our backs will be even worse. Given Api and Papali'i are coming I think we need five other good signings but I don't know where we'll get them from. Our good juniors are still 2 - 3 years away.

I don't mind those players leaving....

As long as we get some suitable replacements.

Papali'i is good but he can't do it all on his own.

And yeah our decent prospects aren't going to be ready.

Guys like : O'Kane, Tumeth, Matamua, Guyan, Kautoga, Webster Mansfield.... all look good but won't be ready come 2023 round 1, for first grade.

We're in a bad place.
 
Disappointed to hear he is not wanting to come , but sharks are going well and we are still on 0 , I think for us we will have to pay overs to grab 3 solid players and std wage for 2 more
Jack Bird , Pele , Simms , ( simms not sure if official with storm )
we really now need to get our finger out and get some pen to paper
