Please refrain from suggestions and rumours in this thread, as a cursory glance at most of it's 1705 pages of posts will show them to be out of place.

No one in particular, but any player that runs fast, can catch a footy and pull off an occasional tackle would be a welcome addition to our snails.

Yeah posting a suggestion is fine I reckon I mean on page 250 something I suggested we sign Taumalolo..

but to avoid confusion perhaps rather than just a youtube clip add some text for context..

Sharks signed second row forward Kayleb Milne from the Storm, a Junior Kiwi forward at 193cm and 103kg prior to 30 June. The Sharks have a great scouting system.

Similar discussion on Sharks forum about overs for Moylan, Dugan and Townshend and how that will hold them back from purchases.

I can't imagine Townshend being much of a burden. He's been solid every year and gels well with everyone it seems. You don't have to be an outright superstar to be good value. I can understand frustration at Matt "The Spitter" Moylan and Dugan.

Gee it would be good to somehow jag Peachey for 2020. I reckon he would need to take a haircut on pay but GC are likely to cut him loose at year end. Hasn't had a great season but does have X-factor which we lack.

June 30 has past with the normal mediocre fizzle that the club is renown for ! With a large contingent coming off contract at seasons end it will be interesting to see who the club has in mind ,hopefully a lot more positive than the effort put into the June 30 deadline but with this lot I would not hold my breath .

How many do we have signed for 2020? My count is 23-24

@Snake I think the club is managing the cap better now and not making signings for the sake of it. I know it’s frustrating but feel the club is building bit by bit. Hopefully 2020 and 21 we will be even stronger.

I imagine 2020 will include a much younger roster, more rookies, as we battle the salary cap with penalties and plodders on enormous contracts. I know its a while away but November 2020 is going to be when we are active with a considerable amount of cash freed up. Need to buy smart at this time or can expect our current issues to resurface all over again.

Going by the contract sticky I put up, there's 23, including Talau and Seyfarth.

Agreed, knee jerk signings are counterproductive in the medium/long term you need to carefully target players for the future.Ad hoc does not work
