I don’t understand what the problem is? How much is a good specialist full back worth? At $500k he is half the price of Teddy. This is all hustle and jostle. Ok, keep negotiating but get him here before 29th Feb.

He’s not a specialist anything. Prefer aetkins edwards or Meaney at the $200-$350k range for fullback. Better cap hit. Issue is with seeing him as a 5/8 cant really pay him 500k for that as well with reynolds On the books. And can’t play him as a utility with mbye on the books that Would be 1.3 mil on a busted 5/8 and an unproven 5/8 or 1.15 mil on 2 utilities. Would be terrible cap mis management

Wonder if Meaney is happy playing on the wing these days

He would be my pick out of all of them. Kid’s a star in the making. I’m sure he’d be happier in the 1 jersey, I hopeWT are looking at trying to lure him from the Dogs.

By the way, who the hell is Aetkins?

Meaney or Scott Drinkwater would be great pick ups.

Caleb Aekins - a fullback for the Panthers. He's played a handful of games for them but missed the end of the season with a foot injury. Not a big frame but a good runner of the ball. Not much of a ball player.

Nothing special. Pass on that one for me.

I think he probably could go well if given an extended run in the NRL but I don't expect he'd make an immediate, massive impact.
 
So how many games has Douehi actually played at fullback in his life? 10? Is he even faster than Nof?
We need speed. Does he have it or is he momirovski 2? As a 5/8 fine. We need a fast fullback if we're to improve

He’s above average. Would be a shrewd addition imo even for depth and competition. Would be a cheap buy in saying that so would Meaney.

Latest story (rumour) I just saw on Zerotackle is Johnston and Douehi to Storm for Addo-Carr.

Aw man I hope not. That's believable too.

Apparently Souths offered Douehi and AJ to Tigers for Seyfarth and Stefano. Nice try.

Don't want to lose Stefano but Seyfarth and Eisenhuth/Clark/Taylor or McQueen and i'm all in.

Got the same feeling I had for LM about JAC, he'll end up at Souths too.

That's all she wrote for me and the NRL if that does happen.

I realise that's a rumour but that's brilliant move by South's if they pull that one off. The only thing is If Melbourne are prepared to absorb Douehi's and AJ contracts but they have plenty of spots available and they are the sort of players Bellamy likes.

They must have an opinion of Seyfarth. I hope Wayne and Shane good judges!

Good move for both parties. Addo Carr will be dynamic in that backline and Bellamy will turn Johnston and Doueihi into superstars.

We're pregnant with forwards at the moment. Without some movement in our backline we're in trouble.

If this is true, we should make Douehi or AJ an offer too hard to refuse.

This would screw both Melb and Souths over and put us in a much better position.

Pascoe has said he doesn't want to absorb all of Doueihi's contract...
