I'd take Kane Evans for Paea moving on any day!

Could happen

hope the joel Thompson rumour is true.

Cannot see Fonua returning either. Since Naiqama left for Saints it has opened up a centre option for him too and he is now really established in the West Tigers team. Under a great coach with experienced players(Marshall and Farah) running the side and a very popular NRL player with the public and pundits.

One down,

Think we will sign 3 overseas forwards, probably Glenn, Evans and one more backrower

Possible sign Mellor

Giving us a pack options of:

Props
Taylor
Evans
Masi
Bowden
Brown
Fash
bienek
Nzoungou

Backrow
Lane
Savelio
Jones
Glenn
Mellor
Thompson

Seems to be alot of negativity around the potential signing of Adam Swift. I for one would be happy with this signing. Yeah he has an error or two in him but most wingers have it's a difficult position to play in the modern game.One thing Swift does have in his locker is genuine pace which is something out wingers have lacked forms few years. If he does sign give him a chance. He also makes good metres from king returns which Radford likes

You are right on the pace point and our general lack of pace has been a source of complaint for many. Guess the question is which wingers are available and realistic with better credentials. I don't know.

Me too, seems a strong presence off the field as well. Other clubs interested though.

coffee woman has promised us the return of mahe so swift isn't even a prospect

Fonua would be too expensive, probably want the same as both our current wingers combined.

I don't see many better wingers available, most Saints fans like and would keep him, the only argument that I can see is that do we need another winger with the 3 we have (presuming Faramio and Ratu sign), in my opinion yes, with the amount of injuries SL teams get and fact we don't have any recognised wingers coming through the system, then I think we do, also Dawson offers cover, but don't think he offers competition to our current wingers which Swift will do.

I'd actually make Fonua a marquee signing, I rate him that highly. When he moved to centre he was unplayable at times, also won plenty of penalties coming out of his own back field. I would say our back line has missed him as much as we missed Ellis in the forwards.
