Even i would look good playing outside Thurston and Morgan, not sure if the Dynamic duo will give you the same leg up. Not saying Neil is not a good player but he is playing in a very good team

We've tried Sue as an edge forward - looks much better and more comfortable in the middle.
Having him, Woods, Grant, Ava and Taylor as a grouping of middle fwds is pretty solid.
Our corps of edge forwards (Lawrence, Aloiai, Sirro & Lovett) may well be the weakest in the competition. Lovett and Aloiai are out of contract at the end of 2017 and wouldn't be on much, so we wouldn't be too lopsided cap-wise using them as depth/backup.

It seems we want him to be M Fix-It, but Elijah Taylor might be the best edge running option we actually have. Lovett has proven much more effective running in the middle. Same with Sue. Aloiai is an interesting one, but looks more a middle guy.
Sironen could play that role if he ever gets it all together.
But Taylor's running & ability to pass might make him our most effective wide runner.

Report of a $3 million over 4 years contract, that is $750k a year we can spend elsewhere, like a strike centre, or winger as we don't have any of these either.
Maybe they might need to let go of the Jennings brothers to help ease cap restraints, we could take them or Whare.

I think a big aggressive Prop is one of our biggest priorities

As stated above we have more than enough middle players now. We could do with a really high quality backrower but I'm not sure that there are any out there who are going to leave their club.

Tamou will be like a Adam Blair when he leaves the Cowboys.
He has succeed in a successful system with has suit his style of play, I reckon the next team he goes to he will be a flop on huge money.
Most players that move on huge money are never worth it nor show the same effort they played with at their previous club.

Coming into next season Whare will have played about played about 15 games over 2 seasons after having had injuries to the knee, calf and hamstring, including only 50 minutes this season. He might only be 26 but with that recent injury history he would be a riskier signing than Ballin…
I like him as a player but I certainly wouldn't throw big money at him given the risk.

True, but if we could get him cheapish then he might be worth the risk, I mean we went after Ballin so it is not out of the realms of possibility.
Personally I think the Jennings boys would be good, they would have a point to prove after not being given a crack in first grade, and we would get the benefit.
Our forwards get beat most times, we need a quality prop and backrower
