That was Smith though, plus I'm not sure he really wanted to be here.
I'd be suprised if we don't sign Paix.
I always wondered if we would look at Nick O Meley, centre who would be off quota.

He’s a handy utility player who‘s done a bit of 9 off the bench but seemed to have played most of his lower grade career at 6 or 7 and was brought in specifically to replace Clifford. I think in better circumstances he’d have maybe done alright but was always a bit of a gamble because he was never really established as a regular in any position in the NRL.
I don’t think he’d have been our long term answer at 9 to be honest. It was crazy to let him go without a replacement but if we bring in a decent specialist 7 or 9 now (I’m sceptical it’s not just the same old bluster) then it’s for the best.

From the same article it also mentioned that we was looking at Hayze Perham. I've just read the Bulldogs forum "The kennel" To say they don't rate is a bit an understatement.

That was a couple of months ago, we offered him a 6 month deal he wanted longer, club did the right thing by not panicking, as not sure he is what we need long term.
Saying that, looks like we are about to sign a player who has never played first grade NRL.

Probably yet another recommendation from Mark o Meley.
I hope with Cartwright at the helm, we can cast our net further afield than Newcastle Knights and Canterbury Bulldogs.

Like his family?
Also the Brisbane QRL cup looks a source.

Why are we not targeting the important positions we need to cover?
We need at least one big fast strike centre.A halfback with some pace and second row.
We have a quality full back in Walker and whilst i can see some fans would like a new nine i think we can run with what we have in Smith,Balmforth and possibly Moy.
For me the key is what we do with Okunbor and Pele.
If this coach is a fitness fanatic then i would see what he can do with Pele next season.
Okunbor i would release and find another second row so that Sao can play front row row.
A crucial part of the recruitment is we have to find players with genuine pace as Ritchie Rich seems to have forgotten how important speed is in todays game and how slow some of our players are

| I don't think Leutele has been offered a contract extension at Leigh. I'd rather have him for a season that Lafai if we are going down the well over thirty route.

I'd prefer a younger centre, but I'd probably take either for a year, would have to be 2 for Lafai

I do agree with a fair bit of what you said, we need players with pace and I also am hopeful Cartwright can get Pele into good shape, because I think he would be worth keeping if he can.
But I disagree massively with your first point. Hooker is a serious concern for us that needs addressing with a top class
player. 9 is such a huge role in the modern game and this year shows for us how poor a team can be without any threat from 9. You can have fantastic half backs and players out wide but if your 9 is too slow to get good passes out to them then it gives defences a couple of seconds to get up off the mark and shut down any plays your halves were planning on running.
Personally I think we need to absolutely nail the signing of a number 9 almost as much as we do a half.
