Cotric going back to Canberra will block some of the youngsters over there. Bailey simonsson is a Sydney boy (I think) would be a handy back up, athletic and fairly cheap I imagine

Yeah, he was a Dog's junior.
Very talented player.

We should ask the questions.

Parra almost have him over the line - Too late I'd say....
But we're much lighter on than Parra.

He’d be a good pick up. Maybe we can keep talking with Canberra about a few of their players

We are definitely short in the backline especially centres

They've signed a pot load of them... I'm guessing Croker is all but done, Even considering that - They're flushed.

Think Bailey would be a solid pick-up.

Walks straight into the starting team I reckon.

Harley Smith-Shields is another Raider that's worth a shot if Cotric returns.
 
Theres two rookies unsigned beyond '22 that id be throwing decent money at. Both young and yet to play first grade but both would handle it comfortably.
The first is Jack Howarth. As he fills out he will end up a backrower but he is extremely athletic and would do a great job in the centres for now. Though admittedly i cant see us getting him given he has been contract to the Storm for years and with Kaufusi signing with Dolphins there is a clear path to first grade for him.
The second is Tolutau Koula. Contracted to Manly he is a player i could see us getting. He can play anywhere in the backline. Honestly wouldnt suprise me if he is already their best centre though Des seems to rate Harper and Parker. Also down the pecking order for a wing spot given the year their back 3 just had. Would possibly be the quickest in the NRL once he gets his start, but has more to his game than just speed.

He re signed.
We tried.
Ship has sailed on that one, sadly.

Yes he did sign a contract, but what's a NRL comtract worth?
Maybe the cost of the paper it's written on.
Zilch.

With
Timoko
Harley
Simmondson
CNK
Croker
Rapana
Kris
Savage

all looking for a spot, Someone is missing out...
Was surprised Smith Shields stayed. If they move CNK to centre to accommodate Savage - He won't get a gig.

You can be our new recruitment manager.
You might need to learn how to play golf.

Grew up on golf courses mate.
I know what I'm doing.

I'll take the job.
Discuss wages later.

No No ... You need to be Bad at golf not Good :grin:
 
I'd happily stick with Talau so long as he gets the U-10's brain-fart-dropped balls out of his game. He knows how to find the line, I'll give him that.
 
BTW, I still feel Jimmy The Jet didn't get enough ball/early ball to promote his attacking prowess. He might yet make a fool of me, but at a cut-price deal I'm happy enough to find out whethwr he lives up the his rep or not.
