Richo has said he will announce them shortly, what positions need strengthening?

Who is a "must" signing.
--------------

Speaking on James Graham's The Bye Round, the Tigers CEO confirmed that over the next two to three weeks, the club will announce new signings who are currently outside the club's roster.

At the time of publication, the club have eight spots left on their Top 30 roster for next season (Tony Sukkar has an option in his contract).

Would you keep Sullivan?
I wouldn’t keep Sullivan but unfortunately it’s not up to us.He holds the aces as he has 2 more yrs with us on top $.Hopefully he gets offers from elsewhere.SuperCoach has taken a liking to him but if souths elect to keep him will likely depend on whether they can discard Dodds.

The reason I asked about Sullivan is, if Galvin goes, then Latu steps up, (but he injury prone atm), after that we are left with untried blokes, at least Sullivan is reasonable depth.
Don't get wrong, I'm not a fan of his, but we do have a contract with him for another 2 seasons I believe.

We need players as mentioned above.

Middles - big boppers. We still look small compared to every other team. Must be able to play 40 mins.

Edge - obvious We have little to no depth here

Centres - no depth, and while AD has turned me around on him, if we're gonna be a force We need better.

Wing - need depth and need to be big guys

As long as the new centre can kick goals then?

Back rowers are the priority generally to give some more depth, but number one signing should be Cobbo. I went to magic round on the Sunday and apart from Cleary and the little Storm winger, Cobbo was the most impressive player that day. The bonus is that he can cover fullback, wing and centre. You add that to Turuva also covering all three, it would give us much more flexibility when someone is injured or suspended. Plus just imagine having a Bula Turuva Cobbo Toa Skelton backline. Attacking weapons all round and good kick returns/early set hit ups.

As long as we don't sign fifita I'll be happy. Maybe if we can pick him up at $400k for the next 2 year and Gold Coast cover the rest. Gives us 2 years to change his attitude, which is a huge ask. And if he continues to do the bare minimum it hasn't broken the bank or the cap.

There's no way we should pick up his entire contract or even 70% of it.
