Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I agree 100% about it being no coincidence that Read writes the Leichhardt Oval article, but is it wise giving the game away and openly saying in a pod cast that Brent Read is a good mate.
All I can suggest is Richo is a decent, honest and honorable bloke who doesn't pull any punches, tells it like it is and doesn't keep secrets.
I reckon he is the sorta bloke you can trust to do the right thing by WT's.
 
worry is where do you put Galvin luai and fainu ?
It shouldn’t be a major issue if we alternate having one of Galvin or Fainu starting in the halves and the other as our 14 throughout 2024 and 2025.
IF Galvin and Fainu both live up to their potential I think we’d need to make a decision on which one we are keeping by 2026, unless they are both playing better than Luai in which case we would then be better off keeping both the youngsters and re-selling Luai.
Time will tell, just hoping we put a good competitive team around them to give them all a fair chance.
 
People say get rid Stains who still has 2yrs left on his contract, Bateman still has 2yrs left after this year & Naden has another 2yrs after this year & Doueihi has this year. I think it would cost us a packet to get rid of theses players.
We need some vacancy places in the top 30 spots to make way for better recruits.
Would most likely have to chip in some $$$, but that is the only way to free up positions.
Hope they have learnt to be more frugal in promising kids a top 30 spot when they are a couple of years off; and just maybe will never good enough.
 
He’s not that little. He’s 178cm. Just under 6ft. Great defender and runs hard.

I’d be going after a winger to replace Tupou and then Staines.
Anything under 185cm is small for an outside back these days. To'o is small for a winger but he compensates with his power. We already have a very small team, every small back needs to be payed with a big team mate and we don't exactly have a Tuqiri running around these days but maybe Nav or Lobb will eventually kick on
 
The forgotten man at the moment is TDS, he is going to need some bench time to keep him interested. So how they manage Latu,Bud and TDS is not going to be easy.
