James Hooper has us linked to Tamou. He wants a long deal but I wouldn’t give him any more than two years. Solid player who’s numbers are boosted by playing behind a good pack but he’s at the end of his career. Would be a forward leader but I don’t think would offer a lot on the field.

2 years would be good. Need someone to help Aloiai. Need front row more than we need second towers IMO.

Benji thanks for all the great memories you have given us. You are much loved and admired throughout the NRL and other sports. I am sure that your next step following NRL retirement will hold you in great stead throughout the Australian sporting community.

I wouldn't give him any deal. He's looking for a retirement package. Let the Panthers' organise one.

He’s off contract. He wants a long deal and Penrith are saying no, which is fair enough because he’s at the end of his career. For cheap and two years im down but for anything more I’d say no

Good to hear Chammas say we are after JAC and Staines. Would happily take both, would give us a pretty potent back line and improve our halves a little

Is his manager the same as Benji's? If so not sure how that will impact negotiations if there is any ill will now.

Not same manager. Believe he's joined with Corey Thompson's manager.

2 years would be good. Need someone to help Aloiai. Need front row more than we need second towers IMO.

If we have to offer him a three year deal to come over, I'd still be for it. Medically retire him if he gets hurt. But not four years, too risky I think.

Ok thanks.

I think we need an experienced forward leader who leads by example with actions, not words (packer talks tough but has no output and gives away stupid penalties trying to be the enforcer). Would love if we could snag Jesse bromwhich (I think he can field offers Nov 1s?)

We obviously need speed in the back line, so JAC is the obvious target. I wouldn't discard Alex Johnson as a possibility either?

Lachlan burr is an aggressive type with good size

1: Alex Johnson (I know not quite a FB but speed)
2: noffa
3: Douhi/momo
4: BJ
5:jac
6: Douhi/mbye
7: brooks (sigh. Has lost confidence big time)
8: Jesse bromwhich
9:liddle
10: alioai
11: burr
12: lucy
13: twal

14: mbye/simpkin
15: Mikalele
16: musgrove
17: McIntyre

he would be 34yo. How many props are productive at 34?

34 next year. This would not be learning from past mistakes

 

[gallagher]

He's a goal kicker

He played origin. We could have the next Joey Johns and the one after that playing as a combo in the halves.

You do make a good point. I'm intrigued.

The potential of it blowing up in our face is immense. Might be worth the membership all on it's own.
