We'll get Whare as he's surplus to Penrith's needs.

Should also look at snaring Alex Glenn. He'd prefer starting over being a benchie

From games I've seen Whare play he's very good, why don't Penrith want him?

I'd gladly take him

Well Brooks is set to be confirmed at $550K for two seasons.

I'd still be having a dip at Cronk and telling Moses to f**k off if he wants big money.

Maloney is only signed for 2018, I'd also put it to Cronulla that we'd take Maloney off them so they can offer big coin to Cronk.

Victim of circumstance more than anything. Someone has to miss out at Penrith, might be able to even pick him up on a reasonable offer too if he's desperate to play FG regularly.

He's a walk up start in our outside backs, that's for sure.

We love him. But our backline aside from him is locked up.

Moylan
Mansour
Blake
Peachey
DWZ
Hiku
Edwards

All signed. Whare isn't. It sucks to lose him. But I like Cleary. I like the Tigers and he would be a great fit.

Dam thats a handy backline to have. Pretty much rep/future reps barring Hiku you'd imagine

Hoping our Backline looks similar to this next year

Teddy
Nofo
Whare
Suli

Well Nofo apparently has a prior relationship with Cleary -
Cleary has gone on record saying he doesnt like Naiqama.

I reckon it might play out like this:

2 Nofo
3 Whare
4 Idris - or someone else
5 Suli for now

Whare would be very handy.If Cronk comes to the WT,which I doubt,who would he work better with Brooks or Mosses ?
Moses would have been better as a partner. But Brooks re-signed so he could learn from him.

Cronk looks unlikely following Brooks re-signing

I think I read somewhere Idris won't be needed next year unless he pretty much returns to his Bulldogs form. So Suli/Whare seems the likely combo

Then obviously needing another winger

That sounds good to me.

Either way, even presuming Whare, we need another outside back.

Not much in the way of quality available - might pick up a "forced out" bargain?

Yep, pretty unlucky. At most other clubs he'd be a walk up start
He walked straight back into our team... just as a winger. But we were missing Mansour and DWZ. He sucked as a winger so Blake was put to the wing and he has that right centre spot locked up.
