Locked in

[crazycat]

Quoting Tom Shines who is quoting Shane Richardson:
I went back and watched again to see exactly what he said ..

“The playing squad is now locked in virtually for the next two years.

We won’t be signing any …Don’t get excited fans waiting for the end of next year and we gunna sign…

We are locked in because we think the players we got can take us to the top of the NRL… if we’re wrong then Benji and I will be signing off into the sunset…”

Looking at our squad:
Fullback - Bula: Fair enough.
Wings - Turuva/Skelton IMHO, solid and I know people disagree.
Centers - Toa/Taylan May for 6 months till he does something stupid.
Halves - Luai/Fainu + AD....
Hooker - Api K Solid
2nd row - KPP plus Samuela Fainu.
Forwards - T May, Pole, Twal.

Bench: Seyfarth, Hunt, Naden?, remaining Fainu.


Are we locked in? What position do we need someone the most?

We need a Isiah Yeo style lock and prop

Think Terrell can be that lock if we can find a topline prop to replace him

Or we could leave him at prop

Ok. Goodluck recruiting a top prop and a top lock in the next 6 months. Fantasy football is fun

Rather than positions, we probably need to recruit certain attributes.

Priorities would be:
1. Kick chase
2. Line speed
3. Leadership when it comes to fitness and pushing your fellow teammates

May be that covers lock/backrow

Good luck recruiting two top line props and risk wrecking a current top line prop by turning him into a lock
Why would you risk it ??

I'm hoping that one of Josh Curran or Ray Stone falls out of the tree - they tick all those boxes.
