I’d target the following underrated players.
Hymel Hunt
Phoenix Crossland
Harley Smith Shields
Siosifa Talaki
Isaac Lumelume
Paul Turner
Keenan Palasia
Brandon TrindallThe only bigger name players available which make sense but won’t happen are.
Xavier Coates, Jayden Sua, Lachlan Fitzgibbon.Souths may look at offloading a player in order to keep Reynolds
So don’t rule out Jayden Sua
Souths wouldn’t have to pay a cent to release him
Souths hierarchy may buckle under pressure from its own supporters
They would rather keep Reynolds then Sua if push came to shoveI’m not sure if Souths have to release a player but a supporter has used the name of a very highly regarded club official stating that Reynolds will stay. I have no doubt he will if that name is involved.
I have no doubt he will, souths are as dodgy as easts, Reynolds will now sign for a reduced fee to get the extra year/s, and the NRL will sign off on it

We’ve had Milford, Hastings and Townshend all suggested as possible replacements. They"re all over the place. Can one of you suggest a viable option?

This forum cares way too much about players personalities… as long as they work hard at training and work hard on the field let’s take them. We can’t afford to run background checks on players and only sign charity workers… McGuire is a grub but he would be a solid pickup and footy is what matters
I’m very proud of the fact our club hasn’t ever been seen as purveyers of grubby play.
To the point that even the “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Finger” or Tim Simona stuff never left a stigma upon our great clubs name in the same way Storm cheated the cap or Easts Rorters continually seem so flushed for choice or Sharks being found over the cap every year either side of their premiership.
Our integrity is intact.
We are proud.
We signed bone-heads before, the most recent having been dropped last week.
Was it last year McGuire got done for eye-gouging?
Let us not even entertain the thought of having someone of so little repute at our club.
If we limp… we limp like men!Other big teams (especially forwards) dont respect us
we play nice
we don’t play finalsIm sick of limping out of finals contention
I think most teams do respect us, we are quite known for producing the unexpected
Havn’t been in contention for a while sure but we make most teams sweat regardless
RCG stated in an interview after the game that if they play like that against a good team they will get beat by 40… they dont respect us.
We don’t make them sweat
And 2GB were using that interview on their morning sports news every hour this morning
A great reason to not listen to rubbish.

The club official is highly respected and from all accounts a really good human being. I am unsure about what Rusty has planned but from what I have read he is a Reynolds’ fan.

There don’t seem to be many. We all know you have to pay a ton to get a quality NRL half. Townsend is near the end of his career I reckon but could work on the cheaper end 400-500k. I’ve had a look through the clubs and Jayden Sullivan at Dragons looks a touted young prospect who we might be able to sign too.

Braydon Trindall is raw but definitely worth a look, same goes for Tom Dearden. don’t believe Hastings is the answer. Shaun Johnson could also work. if Reynolds is resigned by Souths by more than a year I’d be looking at Blake Taaffe or Lachlan Illias, both are huge prospects.

So much negativity about a team that beat a top 8 team and then got refereed out of a win against the 2nd best team in the comp. at the moment.
This is a competitive top 8 team that’s improving every week. It’s a shame our supporters specialize in dumping on their own team and can’t recognise the great opportunities that await.
The only change that needs to be made is Garner. He’s just not contributing at the level needed.Agree.
Swap Mikaele out for a few weeks and replace him with Seyfarth also.

I’d love Schuster but he’s not a halfback. if Brooks doesn’t work out and we decide to go to market then we need somebody who will lead the team around and take charge. Schuster is better off getting good ball out the back in space and given the opportunity to create without having to worry about organising. jury is still out on Madden. I’m really not sure about how he’ll go when given the chance in the top grade.

Plus Schuster just resigned for like 3 years with Manly …

Look to be fair he is young and lacking football but imo on what i have seen (which is limited) i think the jury is in and he will not be our answer going forward.
The biggest problem we have is any half, 5/8 or hooker will have trouble showing their best footy in our team until we can start getting quick play the balls allowing them to play on the front foot. -
Cowboys coach, Todd Payten and his team will be flying into Sydney sometime during the week, hopefully during this time talks between clubs are being done to transfer Moses for someone at their club.
Who would you take?
Like I’ve said before, Jordan McLean for me.

Jordan McLean is a massively overpaid plodder IMO. He’s about as much value as Rusty Packer.
Maybe Feldt but he doesn’t have too many years left in him.
Cows are going absolutely horrendous at the moment, they don’t have much of a carcass to pick at. -

Now that the Dragons have gone with Hunt and Norman I wonder if Adam Clune would want to leave them a year early?
Good quality young player and a real half. -
