Capewell is a depth player, nothing more.

Has been found out this year with the rookie (Nikora) being twice as effective as him

Was MOM last night.

Better than any edge back rowers we have excluding Matterson. Gives Madge the ability to use Matterson in closer or at 5/8 without weakening the team. Sign him for sure.
 
Would take any of the Sharks backrow they have been great. Although our no1 challenge will be offloading some of Ivan’s signings, till than our hands are tired

Sharks have back rowers coming out of their back passage
 
@hodgo Capewell got hooked for his garbage defence last week. Misses a lot of tackles. He’s got plenty going for him but he’s not a complete 2nd rower at this stage.

Not a backrower but that Uele looks a good player.
 
of course we are looking for a nine - ours is retiring. Personally id ike to keep Liddle but you can't have just one nine especially a young bloke. i would think hm and korisau sharing the duties would be great. At the moment though its hard to get anyone to a club that won't win the comp although to be fair 8 weeks in only 5 clubs left who can win this year at most
 
Liddle was OK when he was out there , but the timing when he was out there wasn't right imo

He was up against it as well , you don't get a lot to play off when playing the roosters , they have great line speed and slow the play the ball and ruck down as well as anyone

Liddle is ok but they should be getting one of the brailey guys to be our hooker from next year onwards

Jayden is now the only option of the Brailey brothers, with Braden being re-signed by the Sharks, but I'd rather Koroisau if anyone. We need a dummy half who is already established in the grade, imo.
 
Hi guys we are constantly looking for better players, why don't we raid rugby union soon to be multiple players available after the world cup, with many getting threats off being sacked for their beliefs.
taniela tupou prop,
Samu Kerevi center
Nathan Hughes (number 8) lock,Prop
Courtney Lawes second Row
Billy Vunipola (number 8) lock,prop
 
ESL is the way to go in my opinion

Canberra have signed some absolute screamers ...no reason we can't find some diamonds in the rough

Rugby players aren't worth the hassle to be honest and the ones that are can get far more playing Union in France or Japan

Success rate of rugby players transitioning to the NRL is pretty low. I like Happy's idea of raiding the ESL, it has certainly worked quite well for Canberra this season.

ESL forwards definitely worth a look. Wouldn't go near any outside backs though. Madge should still have contacts over there?
 
We have a group of young players in ISP who are obviously NRL players in waiting. We have a coach renowned for bringing through young players a changing of the guard will occur this year. Our club needs to continue to build by buying the best of the young players recruited by David Warwick. There is not use in spending big in the hope of success. Build from within.
