Wouldn't keep aspinwall too many injuries in position we are strong in.

Bit harsh...as been very good for us...yeamans had 2 injuries this yr as well as Mckinnon...shall we get rid as well.

Players who play as hard and direct as Aspinwall are more likely to pick up injuries. Played very well for us this year so far.

Both under contract, both play in positions we are weak in.

So no would be the answer.

With Ellis signing we have to make sacrifices, we are well stocked in the back row and IMO aspinwall in the weakest senior bak row forward.

He's been good, but nowhere near as important as McKinnon has been for us. I can see where Dave K is coming from, if we keep hold of Manu I'd be tempted to let Aspinwall go too. Depends how we do for props and whether he'd fancy playing there permanently.

May keep him if Manu buggers off though....Contracts mean sod all as well

That could be an option, hopefully it won't happen though.

I'd keep him as a prop. He plays at 13 as an extra prop, basically, gives 100%, is available for cheap, and would fit into the more mobile pack that it seems Gentle is going for. Would be good depth for the front row.

Joel Edwards of the Knights would be a my choice to replace O'Meley if he left . Predominately a back rower but hits way above his weight and would complement Ellis within the pack especially in defence.

Good shout, or the other ginger, Shane Shackleton from Parramatta.

How would we stand on getting a player on lone for a year from Aus, is it possible? It's interesting to see players like Taumalolo QL (Cowboys) start some games and have storming matches and then be given a run in the QL Cup for a bit so as not to burn them out. I wonder if any club would consider sending them out to the Superleague for a year as an intermediate step between QL Cup and playing fulltime in the NRL.

Sam Kasiano at the Bulldogs is OOC at the end of this season. He's young, big, and has a lot of potential but I doubt that they'd want to part with him.

Like Craig Hall! who you made no secret of rating very highly on here

Fantastic prop but no chance he will come over here.

We still have a quota spot available don't we ?

So Aspinwall can take us to the next level but Turner can't?
