Looks like Obst is definitely surplus to requirements and with the likely release of Gleeson it should free up a bit of cash to make a couple of good signings.

Hopefully a top centre.

It's a shame Gleeson couldn't get sorted as it would leave us a quota space for a backrow forward.

Bridge would be great but unlikely.

Hopefully Lynch will be confirmed soon and that leaves us needing another backrow forward fro squad depth IMO.

Powerful, mobile player.

O'meley isn't a fan.

Sounds like a deal is close to being done after reading that.

He's a cracking player, think he is ooc too?

We need a centre, prop and backrow.

Bridge, Lynch and Cuthbertson/Manu would be perfect.

I still dont see the Bridge thing coming off.

Just signed a long term contract with the best team in SL, why would he leave?

They have also lost King for next year, leaving them short in the backs?

Me neither. However an overseas centre plus Lynch means a british backrower...?

Unless we were a fair way under the cap last year I can't see us being able to afford all 3

That's the thing we don't know how far under we were and what players are earning so who knows exactly what is left?

This is why Obst will go I feel, we have the cover and need his cap space.

Has anyone heard about Darrell Goulding coming in, I heard it yesterday.

Why doesnt Ogre get on with Sika Manu ?

His name has been banded around for a while.

News to me. Would be happy with that!

Rather stick with sharp, at least he's quick

Cant see Melbourne losing Blair and Manu in the same off-season.

I wouldn't Goulding is a better player than Sharp.

Centre?

No way as a centre, Turner is better. he is a decent winger but not sure any better than Sharp.

Agree with you on this one Paul, we should only be signing players who will improve our team/squad, Goulding is certainly no better than Turner or Sharp in my opinion, if we are signing a right centre then he needs to be quality, i just hope that type of player is available.

Think,long term Goulding would be a good signing,but would prefer a more experienced,and established centre,at the moment.

From Sharp's performance at the weekend he showed he is a decent winger. He handled Hall very well and broke tackles on the offence. A classy centre inside of him is what he needs to help him out on that side. Been happy with Turner, all depends in who Gentle/Bomber have in mind.

Deffo won't be Gleeson.Aussie centre to fly in soon.........

Goulding is slightly better than Sharp, but his signing wouldn't improve us that much. Would rather stick with the potential of Sharp and Lyne than sign him, and concentrate on the positions that are more essential.
