Agree with you there. The Panthers don’t usually come out in the media about who they are targetting, so probably a journalist assuming or making up a story.I doubt he's even a target of ours

I still don’t think the Panthers released his name as our target to replace Fish to the media though.Stefano at 23 is making a lot of tackles at a very high efficiency, well above Moses in that area and he’s running for more metres per game than any of our forwards not named Yeo. He fits in really well with our style of play.

Also don’t think we can afford him. Struggling teams like Bulldogs and Dragons will offer him $900K or more when he is available.
Yeah I don’t know if we are or not but I think we’d be crazy not to try if he was available for next season, he’d be a good pickup under any circumstances(assuming we don’t overpay) but particularly given the short list of props available for 25 I think we would certainly be having a crack if was available.
But we don’t even get in bidding wars to keep to our own stars though, can you see us trying to outbid Dragons and Dogs?Stefano would absolutely kill in our roster

If a player like Stefano decides to come to the Panthers for far less money for a chance to win a premiership, then great.Why would Stefano leave one struggling club for another? Only if he is motivated by money and a clause in his contract to leave if they don't make the finals suggest he is interested in winning, not money. Benji has improved the team, but is it enough to see them make the semi finals in the next few years?
Will Luai take them to the next level?
They haven't even secured a new CEO yet. Richardson remains unsigned and there is a rumour South's want him back. If he leaves, what then? Chaos will ensue.
Unless they finish the season strongly, if a club with a chance of winning a premiership offer him a reasonable deal, then he may choose to leave.
Who are the more promising front rowers out there?Hopefully he is not. I think there are more promising front towers out there if we were to go to market for one.
May is as powerfull isn't he?
Would be interesting however if decided to put Tago into the 2nd row now.

It’s not even who is out there it’s who is available. We’ve had no time to plan for this. Any forward who is good is not available next year besides a couple with get out clauses. In terms of props stefano is top of the list for who Is or might be available for next year.
Even the 2026 list of who is off contract and good isn’t a big one atm.
Stefano will cost I think min 800k.
Guess it comes down solely to opinion. From the games I’ve watched I rate Xavier Willison, Davvy Moale and Terrell May higher.Who are the more promising front rowers out there?
