Both would be great, but what position are we selling to Wishart if we get Hopgood to play 13?
14 is not gunna get him to leave Storm?
Buying a good 14 is a poor decision, I think a 14 you need to develop. I reckon you buy players for the run on side. Is he good enough to hold down another run on position we need to fill? Bcoz a lot on here are saying we got enough backs.
JWH was allegedly on 550k at the roosters 🐓 .
That's downright corruption

Are we there yet ?
“Well that’s on the cap” to quote Braith…
He is on alot more benefits wise and for the next 20-30yrs value wise than that. He is very well looked after.

There is the article I read when he was signed from Manly. There was the contract paid to him and there was the other.

Godinet isn't off contract
Doeuhie looks the odd one in that line up.

1. Bula
2. Turuva
3. Olam
4. *Need a gun signing here
5. Skelton
Then need to sign 2 gun props, 1 gun second row plus depth signings.

He was one of our best players but I reckon his form has dropped off a cliff

Where would you play him?
Five eight where he belongs?
Luai at 7, where he wants to play and proved he can play whilst cleary was injured.
It's a lethal combination

Don't disagree but the forwards now need to be the priority unless something exceptional pops up.

Do you think he has been great at 5/8 this year?

Considering we’re now certainties for the spoon, would really like to see Galvin move to the right side for the remainder of the year as that is where he will inevitably play next year. Same goes for Douiehi to the right as - hopefully - Olam will be fit next year on the left.
I’ve only seen Skelton and Staines play right side - with Turuva on the left at the moment. So I would think that makes it more likely it’s either Skelton or Staines next year and not both (though one could switch sides).
Considering Skelton isn’t the fastest player, makes me wonder if To’a is a good chance at right centre if we get no more signings with Douiehi and Staines as depth.

We really need one more back.
I would be going after Lehi Hopoate, Grant Anderson, Tyran Wishart or Sam Stonestreet for their versatility and value
We need 2 brand new starting props and a lock forward. I’m looking at Corey Jensen, Max King no nonsense huge workrate would never let you down! Even NAS for upside play him in the backrow would be such a threat. Hopgood, Erin Clark, Tevaga or Kurtis Morrin for lock forward!
In an IDEAL world this is the type of team I’d aim for 1-13. Also think Turuva offers more at FLB than Bula who can use his leap for bombs in the centres! 🔥

I don’t think you’ll see a gun signing made at left centre with Makasini roughly 12 months away.
more likely a guy like Isaiah Tass is signed for depth.
