Umm.. is Justin now doing the player talent evaluations himself?

Funny thing is Johnston has been discussed before Latrell came into the picture. Was told he could explore his options & a couple of discussions between the club (mainly Madge) has occurred with him.

given we have to still spend a fair chunk of our cap to be compliant in 2020, has Madge been in discussions with any other players that haven't been mentioned?

It’s all got to come to ahead in the next 2-3 weeks. Plenty of clubs moving behind the scenes & it’s only going to take a couple of quick decisions for this player market to explode. But scoring ability is the target. If Stefano falls through for 2020 (which it’s highly unlikely) an impact forward will be chased but so far Setu is impressing.

Surely it should be who Madge rates not Pascoe

Be surprised how little the HC is involved in those decisions with new signings and cap management

That’s not even remotely close to the truth. Madge is directly involved & very selective on both new signings & re-signings. Gets advice on up & coming talent from scouts which he’s also closely involved with.

Every club differs. Madge doesn’t decide the numbers and terms.

He is consulted on value/worth & term of the deal. He’s hands on with roster management.

He literally has no say on value and worth. If he likes a player the club will attempt to get them.

How can a HEAD COACH not have not have any input on what a player is worth to his team & $$ on the cap.
1st you said he had next to nothing to do with recruitment.

We appreciate your input here Pom.

Just ignore Wokespoke and whatever 'personality' smoking gun is today. It is rather obvious he makes it up, contradicts himself literally every third post...you don't need to waste time explaining yourself to him mate.

How many rugby league club clubs have any of you worked directly for. I’m at 4. I might know a thing or 2 about internal structure

Do you hand out flyers on game day ?

That's his brother....

Also the club is inches away from securing Stefano from the Eels for 2020.

Slot into the top 30?

That is exciting info to hear.

Yes it is! The only positive bit of info in the whole shebang! Still at least it's one positive.

We'll have a decent forward pack at least, but no backs with speed or line breaking ability to capitalise on anything.

Any idea who is most likely to be playing nine for us

Stefano would move us to 28. Still need to fill one spot by round 1.

And as importantly, any idea who will be playing fullback?

This could honestly be the hardest question to answer. 3 players have mainly trained there. Mbye, Walters & Reynolds. Could become dependant on who signs. A quality back could force Mbye there with Walters as a utility & obviously waiting on outcome of Reynolds situation.

Reynolds if he isn’t sacked for beating his ex up

Corey Thompson will seemingly get first crack at the fullback spot given his strong performances in the position last season

Mate I know you're a bit of a star on the forum but was that comment genuine? IMO he is a fair winger and an awful fullback. If I had to rate the fullbacks from all clubs he'd be in my bottom 4. If he plays fullback this year we are no chance of the 8.
