From https://www.zerotackle.com/rugby-league/players/off-contract-2022/ just now: the off contract players for next season. Not much in the fullback spot. There are a few forwards worth looking at, though some are getting old.

My picks would be: Raymond Faitala-Mariner, Jackson Topine, Royce Hunt, Franklin Pele, Ben Hampton, Jordan McLean, Jaeman Salmon and Angus Crichton.
Retaining Jock Madden, Tommy Talau and James Tamou.

Jack Murchie, Andrew Davey or Chris Lewis could be decent low priced backrow depth signing too

How are they going to work that? S Crichton is not available until 2024 and I don't see Panthers agreeing to release him early.

Bulldogs cannot even officially approach (announce) Crichton until Nov 2022.

if ciraldo gets the dogs coaching role Stephen Crichton will be there

Many familey links to the tigers. Good footballer, could fill in anywhere, has speed and a football brain.

Only link he had to the Tigers is his grandfather played lower grades for Balmain in the 1960’s.
Connor’s dad played mainly reserve grade for Cronulla in the 80’s

 

[Demps]

Mate if he got the contracts rite why was moving them on the first thing Ivan did? Signing up veterans on big contracts when you have a crop of outstanding kids coming through is a mistake

By all reports he's a better fullback than winger- where's he's played grade.

Carving up NSW cup.

What is this mutual option business with Stefano? I thought he was locked in until end of 2025, without any conditions.

Not too sure if getting Staines would make any difference atm, can't see him getting and clean ball to do anything with, we need to sort out our forward pack then work out our long term halves.

He's no difference to Laurie. Both bottom 4 fullbacks. Need a star at fullback.

 

[wonka]

Sheens always saying about getting a Ferrari, Staines is known as the Forbes Ferrari.

 

[The SHADOW]

I’d rather J Field over the reserve graders getting a mention as fullback , and he’s only NSW cup player at best.

 

[tigre]

RFM extends with the Bulldogs

 

[Newtown]

He's no difference to Laurie. Both bottom 4 fullbacks. Need a star at fullback.

Where do we get a star fullback?

 

[hugh1954]

Tamou is playing 10 times better then what Woods is dishing up.

Both waste of space

 

[Odessa]

Has any been watching the young manly centre who is here next year any information on how he's been going would be greatly appreciated

 

[Buttface]

Has any been watching the young manly centre who is here next year any information on how he's been going would be greatly appreciated

Someone asked this in the last week the answer from memory is he is on development contract with us for next year and co he’s signed with us manly are not giving him game time in their lower grades. So probably park footy somewhere. Should get him over now then I reckon.

 

[Needaname]

By all reports he's a better fullback than winger- where's he's played grade.

Gus knows that. I’d be very surprised if he isn’t in a bulldogs jersey next year.

 

[tigertweed]

As a generalised statement in regards to recruiting, we need guys who don’t just love winning,
we need guys who HATE LOSING.
I’m not saying I know who these guys are but Joffa, Douhei and Hastings seem to hate losing.

 

[Demps]

Gus knows that. I’d be very surprised if he isn’t in a bulldogs jersey next year.

Not if they're signing Stephen Crichton for that role...

Noffa has a Ferrari, hasn’t helped his game 🤷‍♂️

 

[PJ_]

So if we sign Staines, does that mean benj has the recruiting power that we've missed?
Or is it another shifty signing..
