Rumour posted in JA, and the poster is highly creditable, that we are looking at a replacement for Widdop in 2020, and yes I said replacement.
Apparently, the target is a very promising player who is not yet established.

My guess would be AJ Brimson.

If so, it throws a whole new light on the signing of Norman and the future of Dufty.
I would not get carried away with a a promising player of AJ Brimson level and he will play fullback for Titans. If the poster is correct it would be someone of a lesser profile already than AJ, probably from fringe 1st / lower grade. Kyle Flannagan comes to mind who has big wraps but nort established 1 st grader if indeed it is a 5/8th and could learn under our halves. There is a few at that level being some guy from Melbourne, name escapes me that has big wraps and South Sydney have a good one as well. I still think Dufty has a place at fullback at a signing of young gun wont affect things.
Field....more likely the one to go.

Brimson fits the bill.

I am not sure if he plays fullback, but Albert Hopoate has some pretty big wraps on him. I am not sure when he is off contract either.

Bad enough for him being self medicating but to be self serving in the home entertainment arena is just asking too much.

My other half reckons it's the cure for everything. I'll tell him to inject his own medicine Gaz67. Too funny :cool:

I wonder how quickly they will announce Val Holmes as his replacement.

Or would they target a diminutive Dragons player?
Val Holmes isn't allowed to play for anyone but Sharks in 2019 if he was to return. I think he will slot straight in in 2020 once he fails in USA playing NBA or NHL or whatever it is he is doing.
For that reason I cannot see Dufty being a possible target for 2019.
