That's a pretty lonely 2023 squad. FFS Bernie get Waqa some help!

* = player option

2019

Utility: Gutherson, Salmon, Smith, Takairangi (30)
Fullback: French (23)
W/C: Blake, Dunster (20), Ferguson, Hoffman (31), G.Jennings, M.Jennings (31), Leleisiuao (22), Parry (20), Sivo
Half: D.Brown, Moses
Hooker: Mahoney, McIlwrick (28)
Edge forward: Davey (28), Fainga'a (21), Gower (34), Lane, Ma'u (31), Moeroa (24), Niukore
Tight forward: Alvaro, N.Brown, Evans, Kaufusi, Mannah (31), Paulo, Stone (22), Terepo, Utoikamanu (19)

2020
Utility: Gutherson, Salmon (21), Smith (28)
Fullback: -
W/C: Blake, Ferguson, G. Jennings (27), Sivo (27)
Half: D.Brown (20), Moses
Hooker: Mahoney (22)
Edge forward: Lane (26), Niukore (24)
Tight forward: Alvaro (27)*, N.Brown, Evans (28), Kaufusi (21), Paulo, Terepo (29)

2021
Utility: Gutherson
Fullback: -
W/C: Blake, Ferguson (31)
Half: Moses
Hooker: -
Edge forward: -
Tight forward: Brown (28)*, Paulo

2022
Utility: Gutherson (28)
Fullback: -
W/C: Blake
Half: Moses (28)
Hooker: -
Edge forward: -
Tight forward: Paulo (29)

2023
Utility: -
Fullback: -
W/C: Blake (29)
Half: -
Hooker: -
Edge forward: -

So we (officially) have 17 merkins in next year's squad, 18 if Alvaro takes up his option.

And that's 30 roster slots filled this year.

Merkin, the NRL.com official squad list no longer shows Alvaro as having a player option and has him contracted for 2020 & 2021.

Nathan Brown is contracted for 2020 and has a player option for 2021.

Mitch Moses is now listed as being contracted for 2020 & 2021 and has a player option for 2022.

The lads on Parra Podcast mentioned that Rhys Davies said on social media that he had earned himself a fulltime contract for 2020.

Does anyone follow him on Instagram or whatever ?
