"Depth" Back Rower signings for next year....
Who you starting, Because we have 3 Starters leaving and 1 coming
and zero depth atm.

Need more than Depth back rower signings - We need class starter signings and depth on top.

I don't see it as mutually exclusive. We need a top second rower as well as depth signings in the position. You chase both roles at the same time and sign your targets whenever they're available
 
I just want give a quick wrap to Joe O. I think his performances this year are going a little bit under the radar. His work load has been huge this year, doing a lot of the 1%ers and his ball playing has been steadily improving as well, short ball to garner this week was great.
I would not be surprised if he gets a call up to Qld next week.
I hope that we take up his option and give him another year or two, he's still only 26.

A superstar Winger who could look at filling in and transitioning full time to Fullback....
It's a shame no one would ever think of that??

Has a bit of Addo Carr to his game.

Think he isn't a FG #1 yet but would carve up on the wing.

Some one should get in touch....

He'd look good in orange.

He took up his option for 2023 already according to reports which is great. I totally agree with you. He's been fantastic this year. I hope he stays a few more years

That is a shame as I rate him and he is a ready made NRL backrower right now.

At this point...Sheensy basically "must" have something up his sleeve as our backrow stocks are dire.

Papallili (who has had an enormous workload for two years)
Blore (off two knee recons + multiple other injuries. I rate him, but he is yet to play more than half a season without breaking down)
O'Kane looks the goods...but still a kid.

Seyfarth and co are front rowers, not 11s and 12s.

I.e. we have absolutely zero depth.

I disagree strongly with people's logic on here re "overs".

Overs is paying Josh Reynolds 750 for 4 years when all he had offered was 550 times two at the Dogs. That was insanity.

Paying big Angus 750-800 (150 more than the Chooks) is NOT paying overs at all...it is realising a need and adding a 26 yo rep level backrower who we need.

At this stage we are two backrowers short, and there are basically none of note left outside of Angus.

You go and get him every day of the week.

No deal for anus
 
In the DT

James Tamou

The Tigers captain looks set to leave the NRL at the end of the year with his management firm in negotiations with several overseas based outfits. Tamou’s experience and leadership qualities will almost certainly land him a deal.

Clearing the decks.

Need to get some incomings on the list though.

I ain't mad with it, thanks for everything Jimmy.

Agree. He's in much better form than when he was picked for QLD last year. Wonder if he'll get a look in.
