Cheer mate,
Aitken won't be doing much next year then
- Not at that money he won't....

WT'S are building what looks like a good bunch of juniors and what we have to remember they are JUNIORS and will need experience around them.Sadly we will not be able to keep them all as some will fall by the wayside and some will move on but that's life in the NRL

Are you able to confirm if Jordan Hill will be back with WTs next year? I think he has a lot to offer us - size, pace, finishing.

From reports the Rorters looking likely that they may let JWH KEARY and ANGUS go to free up salary space if they go after Munster or if someone else becomes available.

In 2023 could WT get away with the following backline as I believe our forward pack is building up nicely.

Laurie
Nofoaluma
Doueihi
To'a
Maumalo

Brooks
Hastings

Back Ups - Kepaoa, Tommy Talau and Gildart.

Hopefully we can sign Dykes to cover fullback and maybe the young Eels winger someone on this forum alluded to as a potential signing.

Did I miss 2-3 signings , because Iam sure I just read our forward stocks are building nicely, do u know something that the rest of us don’t, our backrow is looking bad , one gun , one very average, and one who has been injured since we signed him , so how is this looking great 🥴🤔

Aiken is not a 450g player and outside the Dolphins maybe I can not see a club paying more than 350 max. If we can land Angus C we should have a top eight pack next year. Backline needs one more class player

Note the POM qualified his advice on Aitken. Seems like if he dropped his asking price we may revisit.

How does Dykes fit in if we already have Laurie?

 

[Tiger-ferret]

Yes please to Crichton. 3 years at market rate but not silly overs.

He offers the high level experience to balance the younger ability.

 

[hank37w]

Where abouts r u bud?

Pontifical Household, Vatican City 00120, Italian, Italy.

 

[hank37w]

this kind of argument has bn going on as long as ref,s have bn stooging games,they are proffesionals why cant they kick,pass left,right foot.fk they bn doing it all their lives,who the hell has bn coaching them,if not themselves,hit a nerve,my toof hurts,lol

But what if you have to pass to players that are different heights?

 

[tigerap]

Let’s see, i am not just “hearing” I am “reliably informed”…..

Told you..Nikora is not coming....

 

[Lee's fedora]

Nikora set to stay at cronulla on a 1.7 million dollar deal

In other news daddy dolphin Wayne Bennett is set to meet with Jock Madden and Tommy Talau

 

[batboy]

How does Dykes fit in if we already have Laurie?

If he was here for the last 12 months, He'd probably have played a dozen games by now...

Laurie is the only recognised Fullback in the Top 30 AND reserve grade squads.... (50 odd players)

He'll easily fit - And if he's better - He'll play.

Aiken will come crawling back in a few months.....by then our offer price should be no more than $300k...hate how players use our club to leverage more money either here or elsewhere

 

[Cobarcats]

What?

Perfectly understandable
🤣

 

[Geo]

Damn we thought we had him

Thanks @THE_POM Do you think we are a real chance for Crichton ? Surely there would be other clubs chasing him if available. I would love to pick him up even if we need to pay a little overs.
