Smart resiging Blore. We can get him at lowest possible price and unlike those on here the club knows all the details of 8njury risk, etc. He was starting backrower while still eligible for Flegg. Has talent, size and commitment just needed his body to catch up - in 12 months time he will cost a lot more but also 1 extra year doesn't waste much if worse happens.

Agreed. And if he does fulfill his potential, when this contract is up, he may feel loyal to the club that stuck by him and extended him when injured.

375 is the number I recall..for Peachy ,so if its a clean swap .a bit more than Kenny,who will be hard to dislodge.
Fb will be his target,but Laurie improves every week post Madge,so he mite be a challenge for Staines too
From what I saw at we,Staines isn't worth that $$...but Peachey is virtually worthless so a plus for WTs
Having said that,our goal sb to target established nrl players rather than fringe..weve got plenty of them

Staines is shite. Hope we don't get him.

 

[Kaito]

Blore, Utoikamamu will show the way

 

[Kaito]

Don't be sorry for yourselves my boys.

Great faith from Sheens and co. Blore had locked down the left edge starting job for 2022 before injury prior to the first trial of the year.

Only thing stopping him being a permanent fixture as a starter moving forward is health.

Extra year allows him to just focus on footy.

Blore plays and trains with an intensity like few others at the club, been his downfall injury wise but the kind of young guy this club needs more of. Leads through actions, commitment and won’t take a backwards step.

I remember reading 375 for Peachey as well, not that the Tele is always right.

The reason we are targeting fringe players is the fact that established ones don't want to come...

And maybe established players are less likely to be motivated, compared to those yet to make their mark?

You can't beat experience and every team needs it.

I agree, a balanced team needs a strong representation of experience, provided it’s driven by other motivation. Peachey came to us with heaps of experience, so too did Nofa who had to be sent to Melbourne for behavioural modification.
If building a successful team was rocket science, we’d be asking whats that big cream coloured ball we see in the night sky? 😂 no, seriously, where I think it breaks down for us and some other teams is the drift away from task focussed evidence to making judgement calls based on a false perception of outcomes.
