Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

It's going to be strange next year with Kev, nofa, suli, milne, mwz, fonua, and Thompson available as outside backs. No superstars but I'd rather we spent big money on halves and forwards.

We've gained 2 wingers, and a centre, and lost nobody. Maybe Simona if you count him.

Frozone 1 year extension for 2018

Not good

We need outside backs for depth and Kev offers good depth.

Yeah 2 months ago it would have been no way..but Naiqama has been good and lifted in both attack and defence….The added bonus he is a decent Fullback cover something we need..

It's quite a smart signing really..

Na

Don't count simona

Look up grub in the dictionary and you will see a picture of him
 
Well if the stories of Rochouw, ET , tje huth, grant and kevvie are true thats 2 spots left in our top 30\. Wonder if Bailey Siro is one given he was picked from nowhere today
 
Well deserved Frozone. My opinion of him has changed a lot as the year has progressed. His attitude has been second to none and he's improved out of sight.

Tali was mentioned i think by POM as negotiating a top 30 spot

Makes sense. Could be considered a development squad memeber also couldn't he?

If true, we are only one mobile forward short of a full squad. Perhaps Ivan considering Siro or Tatola for that final spot?
 
If we fill up the 30 bus seats and someone comes available through the fire sale, how does it work? If we sign them does the lowest paid player of the thirty get bumped out and if so, what does that mean exactly?

Development players wont play NRL..

I'd really like to know how this top 30/36 works. We need to field two teams don't we (NRL and ISP). So effectively need to have a minimum of 34 positions filled. What happens to the players that are outside of the 30 that are required to be part of isp team?

Nothing really changes..NRL have a feeder ISP teams which now contain players that aren't contracted to the NRL squad…As an example the likes of Billy Kitt, Luke Garner, Jerry Key State Cup/Ron Massey contracts not NRL contracts so are fine to play ISP but wouldn't play NRL...

It just means you will have 13 players that are NRL contracted players + Development players playing for the ISP team on any given week plus others which will not play NRL..
