If you collate all the "scoop" resources we are looking at about 20 players, which is probably true, they are probably on the spreadsheet somewhere.

I'd love to hear more about plans to go after Milford. I would always think taking a star player off Brisbane would be difficult, but as Ben Hunt has shown, money talks.

I've maintained that Latrell Mitchell would be the best replacement like-for-like from Tedesco, but Milford would be a grade above that, because he's ready right now and can fit into the halves as needed.

Question would be whether or not Milford would ever be interested in moving back to fullback. Often I think his game is more suited to FB, for him to inject himself as needed, rather than constantly being asked to steer the team around. He'd had several lapses in form and I think that's the pressure of his role. Notice how now they even get Kahu to come in for field goal attempts.

The Australian's Brent Read - saying we indeed have interest in Hopoate and Alex Johnston.

gee I hope we are not looking at alex Johnston, he is rubbish, his defence is terrible and he has no ball skills. souths can keep him.

yepm great winger. terrible fullback.

surely not. Alot of these rumors are crap. Johnsons manager prob wants souths to up there anti.

 

[Milky]

I reckon we should try Martin at fullback, he would go well.

So keen on Milne and Packer, hope we can nab them both.

Ghraham most likely going to newcastle.. Haha i hope so. itl piss of the dogs supporters more 😂

 

[marzie]

Alex Johnston on the wing? Yes
Alex Johnston at fullback? God no

The best outcome is for Graham to come here in Woods' place.
What a game that would be next year!

 

[Tweed_Tiger]

Dont the bulldogs have Graham backended on 900k-1 mil next year?

 

[cqtiger]

I'd take Johnstone at wingers money. He is very quick

 

[Westie]

I would love Graham to come here.
Can you imagine it sell out at ANZ…
Probably Woods would dog that game.

 

[supercoach]

Need a real quality signing to deflect some of the damage that has been done by our FORMER captain and I don't mean Farah

They do. thats why they want to get rid of him.
Newcastle can afford it.

 

[wtbus]

You'd think we'd have enough in our cap to take on James Graham??

Newcastle if they play their cards right may get him at a reasonable price with the Doggies having to pay the remainder of his 2018 contract just like we have done with Farah this year.

 

[gatorman]

Dogs forum spoke to a former rep player who said that the Knights have a contract signed ready to go.

Wouldn't surprise me.

I love Graham but I don't know whether it's smart to pay a million bucks for him.. If they were willing to pay $300-400k of his salary however then that's another story.
