/Am I crazy… but can we possibly afford to sign him up....?

I am not sure if we signed Lote to 1 year or 2, and i am not sure how much longer Lawerence has left, even Blair but hopefully we can afford him.

I think that would make us top 4 contenders.... :bulb: :bulb:
 
Since when does signing a winger make you a top 4 contender?

Lets not worry about signing props or a halfback, its wingers that are gonna make us contenders in this competition
 
We are paying out a lot of money to some non-playing players and a non-coaching coach plus we have what was once a prosperous club which has been closed for years. Fix our backyard first before we start talking mega bucks for players like Folau.
 
There is some method in my madness…

Assuming that we can sort out our halves from (Marshall, Brooks, Sironen, Moltzen)

Full back Tedesco

Wing (Korabite, Nofo. Folau)

Centres ( I really think that this is were we are really crap) (Ashfoyd, Simona, Folau)

Props (Keith, Woods, Buchanan, Groat)

2nd Row/lock ( Pettyborne, Thompson, Sironen, Blair)

I think that its a crux of a very good team, hey might be wrong but I still think that we are fundamentally a decent team apart from the centres...
 
We just need one more prop and one more centre and we're a top 4 side without injuries. But I dont think folau is the centre we need as he is just far too expensive! We should pick someone like morris who is great at centre but not a million dollar man!
 
There are some rumblings that Morris is unhappy at the doggies, I would be very happy with him also.

After tonight's match any expreinced centre will do for the rest of the season.

Simona, i remember seeing him once or twice in 2011 or 2012 i forget, but he looked comfortable. Simona will be the insta-call up no question. Who will replace ayshford though? We could use Reddy or Brien which would create:

1\. Tedesco
2\. Koroibete
3\. Simona
4\. Reddy
5\. Brien
6\. Sirro
7\. Brooks (even though i dont want to)

Potter can switch 4 and 5\. dont really care either way.

Any other suggestions besides Brien?

Edit: oops, forgot about Utai. Dunno how he will fit in because although he played well attack wise his defense wasnt great. Didnt contest the high ball at all.
