Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

@ said:
With Tim Grant & Robbie Rochow committing for next year it leaves us with 2-3 spots left. Going in with a 34 man squad 4 of those development players. So far those players are Thomas Mikaele (Development) Heath Gibbs (Development) Sam McIntyre (Development) with the last spot possibly going to Australian School Boys Fullback Dylan Smith from the Sharks

Since when did Robbie Rochow sign?

Trust me he will 100% be here next year
 
1\. Tui 2\. Fonua 3\. Suli 4\. Milne 5\. Nofa 6\. Reynolds 7\. Brooks 8\. Packer 9\. Liddle 10\. Mats 11\. McQueen 12\. Lawrence 13\. ET 14\. Grant 15\. Eiso 16\. Sue 17\. Aloai 18\. Thompson 19\. MCK 20\. Mcilwrick 21\. Gamble 22\. Marshall 23\. DWZ 24.Rochow 25.Marsters 26\. Twal.

Assuming Kev is not signed I have 4 spots and not sure if Gamble is a top 30 player probably second tier maybe 5 roster spots left. I think we have cap room for another big signing and 3-4 solid first graders.

I thought development players had to have been at the club for 2 years. Not sure how the 2nd tier cap works, but do not think most of the above qualify as development players

Development players only have to be ones who haven't played 1st grade before & under the age of 22\. Current 2nd tier cap being scrapped entirely. Not 100% sure how players picked outside the top 30 affect the cap.

Any word on Tony Tali mate? Surprised he isn't in the conversation regarding a development spot.

I think Twal will replace Sue/ Aloai on the bench and Benji should be 17\. Also I think Marsters will stay in the starting side as Milne hasn't established himself as a first team choice.

Wasn't in any real order just rattling off names I can remember.

I don't think so, Marsters misses too many tackles to be a good centre, backrow is his spot.

Tim Grant will be here next season.

Good. I reckon we have enough props now. I'd love to see us pick up some young potential gun players especially in the backs.

Felise is also signed for next year. So assuming ET, Eiso, Rochow and Grant all get confirmed, we'll be at 27 players out of the 30
 
Need another fullback option. Wonder if Heleta is in contention or told to look elsewhere. I'd consider offering Kev another few years for depth and ability to cover 1-5.

I'd take Kev over Heleta.

Got some inside info on this post, on that last spot I do know that Dylan Smith is also a goalkicker. Message me for details on the info.
