I agree with everything you said about Klemmer, but Woods? Hell no. He is absolutely thieving a living by being the only half decent forward in a reserve grade-quality pack. When he goes to the Bulldogs, he'll be exposed big time.

I just read on Fox Sports that Canterbury are tying to offload, James Graham, the Morris Brothers, Eastwood and Mbye. I would love us to sign Graham. We should have the cash available to sign him. I have been saying that we need another 2 good props added to our roster for next year. Graham would be great. He is a leader, he has a lot of passion, he has ball playing skills. A starting pair of props of Vaughan and Graham, would be one of the best in the comp. I think he would be good for our young forwards too. He also wants to win a premiership desperately. That could make us a better proposition than the likes of Newcastle, who are interested in signing Graham and have big money to offer him.
Don't like Graham at all his form has been way down this year. He is part of the Dogs downfall. Graham get a big no from me.That why the Dogs are off loading him.He just doesn't make a dent in the defence anymore. He's past it..

Klemmer is the man we need... He's got the aggro we need..
Woods..gets a big NO.. HE'S not the type we want , he's a SNAG..

Yep agree with Graham, for 1 or 2 years.

I'd grab either RCG or Latu for the long term and Graham for the short term. We need a starting prop to help Vaughan out, he is a fierce competitor, hates losing and would be great for a couple of years until Lawrie/Kerr are ready. He has the attitude we need.

Graham has had neck surgery and not been the same since. Tallis went down the same path, awesome until he had the neck surgery. If you can get Graham cheap he would be good but I am sure he would cost some $$. Dogs will foot some of his dollars for 2018 but not after that.

I think the Bulldogs would let him go for $600,000 -$700,000. But then would you rather buy Adam Blair for $700,000
I would rather Graham over Blair for his leadership and hunger to win

Graham is way past his used by date, he is better off going to Newcastle, we don't need washed up dog players, I rather go shopping in Canberra for some quality forwards.

Graham does not bend the line, he is IMO a spent force. Rather be patient and wait to see who becomes available, if not keep rotating younger guys Lawrie and Kerr possibly.

Problem with graham will be price. He will subsidised for one year then he sky rockets in price. A 2 year deal could work.

Take him, and by the time he is done in 1-2 years, guys like Kerr and Lawrie are ready to be starting week in week out.

We would be paying half of his salary, which would be a great get - wouldn't take him for his whole salary.

Klemmer would be great but he only re-signed earlier this year and his best mate Woods is joining the club - no chance for us

I'm a fan of the pom, but doesn't he have big problems with concussions? This late into his career I think he'd be more a risk than reward. Also think we need a big f**k off prop to break the advantage line over a workhorse.
No for me.
