I agreeDepends. Do we want the cash for AFB? I'd also definitely take Klemmer if he we can fit him in, but not if it means sacrificing AFB.

Yes,u Matt let in a few tries, running in and not stopping the ball. Aitken used to do the same thing.I have been saying the same thing for a while now..
Take his useless brother with him. He must have been responsible for CONCEDING AT LEAST ONE TRY PER MATCH!!! THAT IS A DISGRACE.
The junior winger you speak of, Sione Finau? , a gun, he and his Reggie centre mate Savelio Tamale formed a dangerous partnership..
Maybe Amone was angry with him and as a consequence possibly always had a hammer at his disposal.I mean sure .. its hunts fault Amone is facing jail ... WTF !!!
Does anyone know who supplied griffin with all those cokes last year?People say Nathan Cleary this, and 3 premierships that..
But the next big thing is Kyle Flanagan & stuff.
Mark my words
Just adding to my post as above, there is an article that is on NRL.com which I have given the link below and it shows that for next Year, Flanagan won't be panic buying. The squad will basically be the same with Sele and Kyle Flanno added as he said that there isn't much available for 2024 and his aim is to get the big ones in 2025. There was no mention of Tom Eisenhuth. So if there is going to be any major announcements it will be the signing of the 2025 players.I know that Flanno has said that he hoped to have at least 3 players signed up before Christmas.
I hope that this is still on the cards and I hope that the players he has targeted are the ones that have been rumoured to be AFB, Deardon and Luki for 2025. Good luck to him.
For 2024 then, he needs to sign a couple at least to improve our roster for that year. We know that there are not that many decent ones so who can he be targeting?
No Way !!! We have Reynolds in our squad in 2023 and we win maybe 4-5 more games .Roosters won premierships in 2018 and 2019 stuck with ‘hopeless old ‘ Cooper Cronk 35 years old in 2019. Ben Hunt is similar in build and some other aspects to Cronk. Hunt runs the ball better than Cronk, but Cronk was a master tactician.
Hunt will play well in 2025, if we still have him. Then if Hunt ends up with AFB, Dearden, we somehow keep Sua and pickup another quality backrower, we will be in the mix.
One rule holds true; you have to have the ‘cattle‘ on the park to win games. Our 2023 team had no real forward firepower except Sua, with some help from JDB and F Molo. Replace Hunt with Cronk and it would make no difference. Hunt behind a good pack and it’s a world of difference.
Im thinking it may get longerAt the moment this thread is 15 pages longer than it should be
Would you want to move from successful clubs to our rabble?and basically said he doubted if either player wanted to move from their current club.
It sounds like it didnt work out with the player swap, and he really was one of those 2024 signings that would have improved us dramatically.. but 2025.. hes 28, Sloan or Rumble have had another 12mths.. and other guys will come off contract to headhunt.. like hes not nearly as exciting a prospect.. I suspect thats whats gone down..1) I am not convinced Flanagan is all that interested in Tracey.
More than likely the DogsLooks like AFB is doing the rounds in Sydney. Being interviewed by the Wests Tigers, Dragons and Bulldogs. .....and the winner is ????????
