| Gareth O'Brien will be our No1 half in the next year or so. Tony Smith does not keep players that he does not think will be first choice players. He is 23 and is just coming to the age where good half backs start to flurish. Why else would the club keep him around if they did not think he was the answer. All this 'in and out' is the clubs way of getting him ready. Its a tough call for any young player to come in to a team like ours and run the show, because he needs to shut up players like Bridge, M Monaghan, Higham, Ratchford, Myler, not an easy thing to do without earning the stature.
On Friday he was dominant in the first half, the first 4 kicks resulted in additional sets or points. He was less effective in the second half as we changed our approach and we predominatly attacked down the middle as Cas forwards tired, so the hookers became dominant.
He is the answer and will be a international half within 3 years.

| Widdop is killing it now that he is the main play maker at the dragons, can't see him leaving yet. I think he got voted the signing of the season by NRL fans or something like that.
Daly cherry evans will get Cronks maroon and Aussie shirt this year or next so there is a possibility of signing him if he's looking for a new challenge. Cronk is probably the best kicker in the game. IF that happens then WOW!

| We've apparently been talking to Anthony Tupou I've been told. Bit out of left field, and a name I hadn't heard linked before. Seems we're linked with anyone these days though.

In talks with him at the time of the Waterhouse signing.

| Tupou can play, but his injury record is horrific. Can't string any games together
