I was looking for Dr Evil when the Fembots appeared & smoke started coming out of their jubblies.
They tried to work their mojo on me but I countered with my mojo & we got cross-mojonation.
And I ended up here in my pants.:1343.jpg |

NRL Wingers OOC at end of 2024 season
https://www.zerotackle.com/players/off-contract-2024/
Corey Oates – Brisbane – 30 years next season
Jordan Pereira – Brisbane – 30/31 years next season
Nick Cotric – Canberra – 26 years next season
Jordan Rapana – Canberra – 35 years next season
Edrick Lee – Dolhins – 32 years next season
Kyle Feldt – Queensland – 33 years next season
Semi Valemei – Queensland - 26 years next season
Sunia Turuva – Penrith – 22 years next season
Daniel Tupou – Roosters - 33 years next season
There are other players but this list is the most prominent first teamers.
My preferred choice would be Sunia Turuva but can’t see him being released. Daniel Tupou kept Ryan Hall out of the Roosters first team. I would love to have Jordan Rapana but his age goes against him. He is a full on, 100% effort, 100% determined player who would wind up the opposition up no end. |

It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.:1157.jpg |

If we were looking for a good winger, I’d look at Oates or perhaps Tupou but age counts against Tupou a bit. I think both would be improvements on Fus, although they are probably long shots.
We need to fix the pack first though, putting a younger player on the wing if it means we sort out the front row and get a second rower with some attacking ability would be a very wise move.

I’d rather we look at a British winger and use the quota spot else where

I'm not sure. The base level of outside backs in the NRL someone like Nene MacDonald, where as here it's the likes of Olpherts, Roberts and Innes Senior. We have a settled spine, and should be able to find forwards domestically, so now maybe a good time to use a quota spot on a good winger.

Jordan Dezaria is out of contract at Catalans, I think. He'd be a great signing.

We should be looking into bringing in a forward mid-season, given a few of the exits (e.g. Myler and Olpherts).
How about an experienced pack leader (beefier version of Prior), or a an aggressive line-breaking backrower to come on from the bench?
One of Smith's mates from the Queensland Cup if we're on a budget could fit the bill...

We don’t have a quota spot |

Going back to wingers. I think there are plenty of good quality domestic options, even at the younger end. If you look at the top top clubs, theyre not using a quota on a winger, with the exception of Miski who would have been cheap at the time and Ikavalu who I think is playing more centre.

In that basis Jason Qareqare could make sense and his brother is at Leeds. He was at Headingley today watching the academy match and with a couple of Leeds lads (although they will all know each other from juniors). |

He is one that comes to mind. I wouldn’t be against Hanley either tbh if Leigh don’t want to keep him. More established Yaha seems on the outers at Catalan and would do a job and allow us to focus wage and quota in more high impact areas. |

I’d still be happy with one new first grade quality winger and a really good prop or second row depending on whether Martin stays.
Whoever comes in now has to be better than whoever they’re replacing basically. We also need just a different type of forward, someone who can make most contact metres and make the opposition worry.

Just look at the back row options Saints have got:
Sironen
Matautia
Knowles
Batchelor
Bell
Whitley
And a few young lads behind them.
Great mix of impact and workrate.
We're miles off that level of depth.
Their prop options aren't bad either....
And look at Wigan's depth in the pack, particularly props.
We're spending up to the cap, but don't really seem to have decent depth anywhere across the squad.

I’d say we have depth in the back row, the issue is that they’re nearly all the same type of high work rate player. Which is then compounded by the lack of true punch in the front row.
