and knock-on regularly

followed by a really convincing, 'it-wasn't-me-ref-it-was-him' look to the ref.

and the tackler, at the same time, (but with different eyes)

Come-to-bed eyes

He reads this forum on a regular basis so surely he knows the fans feelings on what players we need.

I really hope he's listening because we need 2 forwards, 1 prop and one ball handling backrower imo if we're going to progress.

A scrum half also wouldn't go amiss for next year but he'd be pointless without the 2 forwards imo.

Well if IL is reading we could do with
Ben Cross (Newcastle Knights)
Mark O'Meley (Roosters) or
Luke Bailey (Gold Coast)
Nathan Cayless (Parramatta) and Andy Lynch /LMS for next year.


I would like us to try to sign a good up and coming NRL prop like Justin Poore (Dragons) or Thom Lehroyd Lahs (Raiders).

Add to that the signing of a proven quality halback to partner Leuluai or Tomkins in either Matt Orford/Braith Anasta/Brett Kimmorley.

All these signings I think we are capable of doing, I would like to sign better players but they are still playing rep footy.

Out of them all I think Cayless and Lynch with LMS next year would prob happen TBH. With maybe Orford going to Wire in place of Monaghan who is off the Canberra we should try and get Kimmorley/Anasta.

Get rid : -

Bailey, Coley, Smith, Phelps.

Loan out:- Goulding, Pryce, Flannagan, McIllorum and maybe Prescott/O'Carroll.

I think we need 2 props and a SH

Hansen Hock J Tomkins Lockers with probably Mossop pishing through will be the back rowers I reckon. A big line breaking 2nd rower would be nice but Mossop has the potential to do this so we should give him time and he will probably push Hansen out the side next season IMO

One prop for sure and possibly 2.

I'd like a player abit like Puleutua at Saints or Lauititi at Leeds who can play front row or second row. A player abit like Bryan Fletcher who can mix it in both positions.

I miss Fletcher



we really haven't replaced him. Mossop will most likely be that player who plays prop and 2nd row for us with next season being his breakthrough year most likely. The reason I say 2 props is Fielden and Coley are just not up to it. Fielden will be here next season so we will only get one prop for next season. Luke Bailey would be my preference but I think we will end up with Andy Lynch (no idea why btw) Asotasi will be off contract at the same time as Fielden and I would really like to us to go for him (unless we got an overseas prop to replace Coley) but again I doubt it and we will probably either resign Fielden or get LMS/someone similar
