The Garner talk of been released has gone quite... Maybe holding off until after GF or want to keep him

Manly are pushing for it, but nothing formalised. At this stage, due back to training in Dec.

Have to get him off the books by Nov 1!!

Not necessarily - just means you'll start paying some of his wages.

Braydon Guyan is another one we have at westfields. Looked great today, reminds me a bit of Nathan Brown (eels version).

Is he one of ours? He stood out to me in the parts of the game I watched, was excellent.

He looks the goods. Impressed me. The more Westfields boys the better they are a powerhouse rugby league school

Brandon Tumeth and Apisalome Saukuru - rookie contracts

Saukuru was a Bulldogs backrower, looks like we've plucked him. anyone got any mail on him?

From Westfields Sports

Watched him play today, did well he’s a big fella and produced a magic flick pass to set up a try for them

6ft3 big kid. What position did he play?

He also has a brother Solomone, at 6ft 3!

If we did manange to pull off a mirace and sign Harry I'd imagine that would mean Jacob would be offloaded as you surely can't have three just hookers in your squad
That said I'd imagine the market for Liddle would be pretty strong and I for one would wish him well, I just think Harry brings more aggression, urgency and winning mentality
I took it from @THE_POM that Harry is still a remote possibility

Storm have been doing it with Smith, Smith and Grant, so why couldn't we?

Joseph O'Neill is the one from there that we need Lambkin to poach for us. plays for the dogs currently, but looks a prospect.

Had him on for a Q&A earlier in the year. Top bloke!

Storm do a lot of things well that we and other mere mortal clubs do not ?

Has Harry ever been in their top 30 squad? I know he's been in their system and played a couple of games in 2018 so probably he was. Either way, the other Smith plays a lot of back row, none of our three could so it seems a waste to me to carry 3
 
On a side (and I know we are not supposed to be positive here but please forgive me) note, the recruitment of juniors really seems to have improved the last few years. Hope it pays of in the near future.

Thats the bit the media refuses to report. Maguire is building it from the ground up.

It will take time but its coming.

Its not all doom and gloom as the media make out.

So true. 2021 is going to be tough again, fringe 8 at best probably

2022 we lose Packer & JRey, freeing up $1.5m+ so let's presume we do something unheard of and actually use it wisely

Uto (will be 21), Blore (21), Talau (21), Kepaoa (21), Mikaele (23) will all have another full season under their belts

Douehi as one of our key playmakers will be 70+ games into his career at age 23

Would think moving Mbye along before 2022 would be a big plus as we bring these promising kids and hopefully some others through

Not sure of BJ's contract, it's to end 2022 as far as I've seen but some feel 2022 may be at the club's option. Would be good as I doubt he's going to improve much with age but I'm doubtful as to the option

As always, the glass is half full and getting fuller

The media feed off the fans discontent to some extent and this is why these posts are vital to keep some rational perspective.

Good points guys, thank you.

And as they say mate, "good news never made a paper sell".

Jacob will go to Bulldogs if Harry returns. Already had discussions with both teams. This coming from those close to him.
