So the list of targets is growing thinner....

Staines stays with panthers
Grant going back to Storm (but hopefully we throw a truckload of cash and opportunity at him for 2022 in my opinion)
Rapana staying with Raiders
Sailor with his legal situation....

Things are going to start getting interesting.....

still have Addo-Carr, Hetherington, Simpkins and potentially Suaalii rumoured to be in discussions. plus, if this 10% cap cut comes into effect the player market may explode again.

I'd write off that Suaalii....seems like too much baggage

JAC and Hetherington....if we get those two then I think it's a great offseason with the addition of Tamou and a good preseason with Liddle fit and firing!!!

before this all got out of hand Souths were on record saying how nice of a kid he was and that he comes from a great family. now that they haven't got their way they're carrying on in the telegraph like the self entitled brats they are.

his manager is merely an advisor who really has no idea how this all works and frankly it's showing more by the day. don't believe that it's baggage, just that he is equally good at league and union and can't decide which one to play permanently, and being a 17 year old kid it is definitely showing. I highly doubt he'll be here and will either settle on a "glamour" club or go to union, but if the mail we've gotten on here is correct and he loves Madge we might be in with a shot.

If that is the case....imagine how the glamourpuss clubs would be if he came to us?

It’s at least refreshing to hear that he loves Madge.
 
We really should have put the money towards Hetherington over Tamou. I rate Tamou but Hetherington would be our best forward and has youth in his side. The wildcard is Utoikamanu he could be anything.

Overall our prop rotation is set Tamou, Aloai, Utoikamanu, Mikalele, Twal.

Not confident of getting Hetherington?

Was told he signed with the Bulldogs yesterday.
They backed out of the Blake Green deal. He will go in as an assistant coach at the Knights.

There is a chance Mitchell Pearce comes back to the Tigers or Roosters next year.

Wow, man thats a shame about Hetherington.

Mitch Pearce is a competitor. That would be an interesting one.

Wouldn't take Pearce if he got down on his knees and played for nothing.

Burton needs a release. He was allowed to negotiate, but only to see his value. If he wants to move he needs to be formally released...

**Which all means, Ivan Cleary has to agree.**

Odds of Cleary releasing Burton to us? VS Odds of Cleary releasing Burton to Barret's Dogs?

But I thought I read somewhere that Panthers were releasing Barrett to the Dogs on the proviso he doesn't take any Panthers players with him?

believe Tigerballs said that we were planning on getting him for 2022 and while it may hurt us it was the best thing to do in order to snap him up.

"take" being the operative word...

I am sure he will be "gifted" a couple...Hetherington already if the poster above is correct.

once the dogs and titans reshape their rosters, we might be able to pick up some of their offcuts

Would we want any unwanted player from those teams? Would they improve out team?
