Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

A couple of realistic signings for next year to compliment the players we are bringing in, along with our injured players, would be Garrick and Klemmer. A big, skilful, goal kicking fullback and an experienced, aggressive middle forward are just what the doctor ordered.
 
Funny how Melbourne didn't complain they were "played" when JAC and Brandon Smith left. They replaced JAC adequately and no doubt they already have someone lined up to replace Smith's role.

We lost both Tedesco and Paps and replaced them with Lolohea. That's on our management.
Because Melbourne weren't played. JAC asked to go to Sydney early. Storm said only if we can get a gun winger in your place. They couldn't do JAC honoured his contract and played the final year to the best of his ability. Then when he was negotiating a new contract with Dogs he was upfront with the Storm that he was going to Sydney not stringing them along with non-committal answers.
Smith essentially said hey I know I won't be the hooker here so I'm leaving at the end of my contract. Again he let them know his plans and played with intent in his final year. And Storm did whinge because he signed with another club before giving them a chance to match the offer, even though regardless of their offer he would have been a middle forward, not a hooker.
Tedesco kept indicating that he would likely stay, then signed with Roosters about a week after Papenhuyzen signed with Melbourne.
 
While I like the reports that Benji is sounding people out to gauge interest, can someone confirm if he is actually allowed to do that to players contracted for next year (i.e. Cam Munster) prior to Nov. 1?
I think that they can talk but can't offically make an o.ffer
