So is it only 1 spot we have left for this season or 2 now that Hoffman has gone.

Recruitment and retention has been good so far for 2022 and 2023 as evident by the image posted earlier

1 spot.

Cheers. Assuming we are saving it for mid season in case something comes up

I thought we lost Israel Ogden?

Unless someone pops up in February. Our club likes to go into the season with 28-29 players though, so they might not be in a rush.

I must have been thinking of hill or something but I swear reading that hartigan didn’t fellow up on some meeting or something

It’s been well documented…

The expression on his face confirms it.

Who are the highly rated rookies coming through ?

Fullback, Logan Dillon
Winger, Liam Scolari
Centre, Israel Ogden
Halves, Kade Hill, Tyrone Roberts
Hooker, Mikey Tannous
Prop, Fonua Pole
Lock, Bray Guyan

@Kaito and @JC99 could name a few more


Good list. Hoping to see some more State Cup this year (after a Covid effected season last year. Looking forward to seeing some the likes of Pole, Guyan and Dillon etc.
Any backrowers coming through? Manly & the Cowboys seem to have plenty coming ..maybe we need to poach in this position

Jeremiah Nanai is one we should be trying to get from the Cowboys, I think we offered him a 2 year contract worth $300K a season.
I think we should up the offer a bit, as he is a real talent.

They have plenty of backrowers. Maybe they are holding out to move to the Dolphins in 23 but its worth putting the pressure on for quality edge players

Lomi Saukuru, Brandon Webster-Mansfield, could see Iverson Fuatimau playing there If he keeps growing..other players to look out for imo. Sione Tupou, Jimmy Ngutlik, Mateo Tatola

Not to mention Alex Seyfarth.

A lot of clubs were chasing Jimmy from memory ... Plays union and league PNG background. Big, strong & fast.

He was retained.
T&T deal I believe.

All three of our development players are currently back rowers. Though Saukuru seems destined for prop. Tumeth plays a bit all over the pack too - lock, prop, second row...

Thoughts on Okane?

He's, rangy, fast, can score a try and defend. I read there is an O'Kane in the Balmain HM or SG Ball team. Is he related?

PNG players are tough. Jimmy is big, tough and fast. I believe he is an enormously talented player.

Looks small...

Saw some footage and he plays tough though.

Unsure of relation to other Okane.
