I'd take a risk with him, although has Blake Green got a club for next year.

The other option is to keep Micheals, but I can't help but think that a half is even more a priority of the rumours about Connor are correct.

I guess if the Connor deal does fall through, then we can still go to the NRL for a half

I'd be tempted to look at Soward also.

I'm led to believe his next club is sorted and the London thing came up only as a short term deal

ill second that

Where do people get this neanderthal Brough obsession from, he's a complete numpty

brough is on a downward spiral. He'll want a 3 year deal and a big wedge. Not worth it IMO

This. His best years are behind him - we should be looking for someone in their prime or on the way up.

If the Connor rumours are true, we could do a player exchange for Brough

Been there and done it with Brough. Not something I'd want the club to revisit.

From the above link;

MICHAELS ON HIS WAY HOME

Former Broncos and Titans centre Steve Michaels is on the lookout for a return to the NRL. Big and strong and a player who knows his way to the try line, Michaels would be a handy pickup for several NRL clubs skinny on strike power out wide.

He is currently at English club Hull – but isn’t believed to be enjoying life in the UK.

A bit of slack reporting here. Do they even know who they're talking about?

Fox sports are reporting that we are linked with T-Rex Tony Williams for next season. Been pretty average the last few seasons, but I think he'd seriously rip it up over here.

If this comes off, does this mean one of our current back rowers are leaving/retiring? Or could we see him in the backs? He's played wing before!

cannot see that at all

IMO

We don't need another forward, and he'd probably command a large salary
as well..

I would like a player of the ilk of Blake Green/Jamie Soward...

think their linking him with the wrong Hull club, think its KR who are interested, can`t see us signing anyone else unless the Connor tells us he wants out

Yeah I agree, not a forward that were in need of. I've said all along that Tuimavave is best off at left centre and would much prefer six. But I think there pretty set on Carlos at six and Griffin as the new centre.
I'm still curious what there going to do with Fonua next season? He's got half decent hands and a good offload but I still think he's better off on the wing.

williams is going to rovers. He may go OK in SL but isn't hacking it in the NRL

Ask the Doggies fans what they think of Williams, and compare it to what they said when Pritchard left

T Rex was a wrecking ball on the wing / Centre for Manly , Unstoppable on the edges but he's nowher near that form nowadays .

Morgan Punchard from Halifax?

names been mentioned a few times, don`t know if there is anything in it though

I know Punchard recently signed a new contract.
Could we be looking at him to replace Reece/HTW?

Seem a bit pointless to replace HTW with him, as we have to pay a fee and pay him to enough for him to either move here or commute, will work out the same what Harry wants.

Not sure on our cap but we have enough spare and Savlio becomes available I'd make him an offer.
