Quote: Butcher "Assuming they're off contract, I'd guess it'd be one of Peter Hola (Raiders), Liam Knight (Bulldogs), Makahesi Mankato (Eels) or Martin Taupau (Broncos). Outside chance of Jordan McLean or Matt Lodge. I'd like it to be Knight.
I'd also prefer an out-and-out line-running second rower. Not loads of top class ones about, but I really like Jack Williams at the Sharks. Absolute workhorse but can also run good lines.'"
Certainly seems to be plenty of forwards available if that list is to go by.
Martin Tapau has been banded about last 2 seasons and it seems his agent just shops him to get him another NRL deal every season. Didn’t we offer him a deal for 2023? I’m not sure I’d be keen on that.
Can’t say that I’m not excited to find out who we have signed as I reckon there’s a big one still to come.
