I know, just what we need, another speculation thread.
Apparently the club is circling Dane Gagai. Why? If they're looking at a Dugan replacement for fullback Gagai is not the answer. Unreal player but he's a centre.

Thoughts?

Funny how plenty are slagging off at others for trying to poach our players but think it is ok to chase poor old Knights best player
FMD we aren't overly rich and are already having issues with the cap and retaining our existing jewels
Anyone that thinks Gagai would come cheap has rocks in their head
Just swapping problem A for problem B

If true this pretty much is the confirmation that Lafai isn't in our plans for the future. They'd want Gagai at centre if we can't keep Dugan and Field is 100% going to be fullback next year.

Gagai is a centre or a winger only and not a fullback at all - especially when they've tried him there before and he didnt work so they've since played - Feeney, Pythian, Matautia and Elliot there instead.

Yep, we don't need him.

Wouldn't understand Field to FB. Sure, he's faster and has better ball playing skills than Dufty, but his defense isn't as good as Dufty's. And defense is important as a fullback in our case. How many tries has Duges saved at the back as our fullback? Many.

Dufty or Field would only be about half as good as Duges in defence so maybe we can play them both while we defend and then use either or in attack?

One of the best centres in the game. Likely mind games to put pressure on Dugan though.

Hypothetically, if we did nab him for "centre money", it would mean we could go hard after Dugan OR Widdop, with Jai Field slotting in to the vacant spot.
