Off contract players at the end of this year

Herman Ese'ese, Aidan Guerra, Brodie Jones, Josh King, Mason Lino, Andrew McCullough, Tautau Moga, Jacob Saifiti, Connor Watson

Out of those, you'd think we would resign Watson, Herman, Jones, JSaf and maybe Lino?

Guerra, king, macca are as good as gone

Where to spend that cap space?... Everyone says 5/8th, but if hoy puts on a bit of weight and works on his defence, he should be right?......and Mann isn't exactly letting the team down atm

Moga will go for sure. I’m guessing Herman goes as well.

Don’t think we’ll have much cap space left really. But not sure.

I hope we do keep Ese'ese... Wish it was Glasby who was finishing this year and Ese'ese the year after. Perhaps we can offer Ese'ese a deal that offers crap the first year but upgrades it with some of Glasby money from 2022?

I think Ese’ese has always had a couple of question marks on him. Yesterday’s effort didn’t help his cause.

Above average first-grader for sure, but I suspect he is seen as a luxury rather than crucial. I also think he is seen as more of a gun-for-hire than the others in the pack and that won’t make the club warm to him at negotiating time.

I could be wrong but that’s my current take.

we could do with him right about now

"It never worried us," Mulholland said when asked of Starling's size.

"What they did at Newcastle was had him tackling over the ball.

"I had a good talk with Mick Potter who was coaching him up there in reserve grade and he said Nathan Brown wanted him tackling over the ball and you just can't do it.

"It wasn't going to help Tom because he's too small and will have to get his feet off the ground to get over the ball.

"So that was one thing we spoke to Rick [Stuart] about and he picked it straight away."
