would roll the dice with Curtis Scott and Roberts
Sign Tariq Sims if you can for 650k
Sign Peachey
Sign Woods

Sims - Yes,

Scott - Unsure

Peachey - To expensive for a utility style player (been there, hurt real bad)

Woods - Note even for $1 on principle

Woods will assist the club sign him better than what we have

Woods is not the type of player we need

So just wondering, if we still can’t get any big signings to come, are we still blaming Madge or will it be Sheens?

I think the chance for big signings are over, we missed them all, there isn't anyone exciting left available as far as I understand?

Or do you mean 2023

I think the only big signing that was missed was Matt Burton, he has a big future ahead of him. And he reportedly only went to Dogs to follow Barrett. Not to many others signed up for other clubs this year that would be considered big signings that would've justified their huge salaries IMO.

Im not sold on Burton being a future star .. there is just something about him that doesnt sit well. Yes he looks ok in this current Penriff side, but so do most players including Eisenhuth. Burton at this stage of his career is putting 110% every week by going 100 miles an hour at everything and throwing his body into every tackle .. this is what most new comers call .. I must impress syndrome .. !!

Yes you want you players playing at 110% if they can .. but there are a lot wise players out there who will play at their hardest when the time is required .. poor young Burton is gonna bust himself playing for a less stronger team like the Dogs next season and wont look half as energised or good as he does now.

It's like a lot of Melbourne players take them out of the Storm team and dont look half as good. So i hope im wrong and Burton goes on to prove me wrong .. but good luck to the kid.

Burton is a child prodigy and has always lived up to the hype - my contacts in Dubbo have known he would reach the heights he already has before he got to Penrith but probably just sooner than they expected.

I'll be extremely surprised if he doesn't kill it at Belmore.

Penrith seems to have a hold on Dubbo future stars - clearly their program identifies the talent early.

Burtos old man is also a mad tiger supporter, wish that counted for something ?

Hopefully the mole is right this time and he's off to manly
 
I don't expect any signings for at least a week. First the club need to leak potential targets through the media and then analyse the social media reaction before making a decision.

In all seriousness I would be chasing Peachy, Sims and Scott & Braden Burns

We are in desperate need of outside backs (particularly centres) but there are just none around. Again we missed the bus

I think he is still playing ok football, we just need high impact players.

I think we only have 4 spots left, and they'll likely keep a rainy day spot open. I'd hope we're going to promote at least one of our Flegg stars to a top 30 contract or at least development spot.

I’d say Peachey, Sims and Burns more so than Scott and Elliot. The trouble makers don’t work here, no matter how much of a point they’ve got to prove

Woods would be another Tamou. not worth it. better off throwing the chequebook at Junior Paulo for 2023 and trying to secure an early release.

I think Tamou would still be better, He has a good attitude despite the high Klms.

I don't want Woods back!

J Paulo idea has merit.

Not often i would agree with wot caz has to say but Burns would be a handy pick up , is he avsilable?

😂

Believe he is off contract but I’d say he’s likely to take Gagais spot ? If that were the case I feel he would’ve resigned already

I'd take Burns over Scott anyday. he has had his issues with injuries in the past but he's only 25.

Likewise. Great build for a modern centre and likes to try make stuff happen. Bit more pricy but a better upside

got some good young centres coming through in Fuatimau, Kepaoa and Ogden (providing we keep him) but I'd have him for sure. very good defensively as well.

Forgot about kep, thought centre should definitely be his first position. Would love to see more of Ogden if we don’t sign any backs. Give him a top 30

I think Gildart is a very very long way off first grade. Kepaoa needs a big pre-season but if we don't sign any centres I'd have him and Ogden there Round 1. in saying all of that I think we'll sign a centre. whether it's Scott or Burns remains to be seen.
