I don’t see him playing there specifically. But he will have a fight to get in the 17 regardless with the current recruitment.

If that's the case, another reason AOB needs to go. Croker is part of the future of the club. He is a modern prop who I can see develop into a top first grader. Recruiting two nuffies to take away valuable minutes away from Croker is not how we will become a top 4 team.

Feel like you're severely overestimating Crokers ceiling, Yosh. I don't think he's a prodigious talent that you clear the decks to accommodate. He'd be putting legitimate pressure on our underperformers if that were the case.

I think you're right, he's probably not. But I'd rather invest in Croker than pay $8/yr to get Hetherington in the squad.

Is it? I have been known to exaggerate and over hype. However, I still think he is the type of forward we should be nurturing.

We don’t have Hetherington yet, might happen, Elliott is a signing to sort of take up Barnett’s spot, better or worse? it is depth. Croker appears our best Prop coming through and with Klem plus Saf pair we look ok. Not sure Elliott is our fix at second row, give Frizell one spot we have Elliott, Fitz, Jones and Thompson along with Johns to fill the other plus bench, not great but ok, competition.
What we really need is a injury free run and a quality half, Milford or some one else and a real 14

You better add Hetherington to your team list.. Apparently he has sorted his shit and is headed to you guys next year. He will be an awesome addition..

Heatherington walks into Fitzgibbons spot. And might actually be strong enough to pull off one of the 20 crash plays they will make him run per game
Or atleast hold onto the ball. Do we know what his hands are like? Or does he have novacastrian dick fingers aswell

if we dont get a blue chip half

Not going to happen. There's about five in the comp and they are all contracted for 2023. Absolutely no reason to agitate to break contract to move to the basket case Knights of all places.

Desperate to extend the milf because he's really the only shot they have at signing genuine talent in the halves.

Yes Milf is our best chance and if we can get by with him, Clifford and Clune filling our halves spots each week then we might go ok but let’s not stop looking

Not that many were factoring them into 2023 plans, but 2 Knights off to the Super League. Tex Hoy has agreed to terms with Hull FC, but has a get-out clause if an NRL team wants him. Sauaso Sue is following Willie Peters to Hull KR.

No surprises there. I actually thought we may want to hang onto Hoy IF we couldn't keep Milford and with Clifford now looking on the outer.

He's at least a back-up for the halves and fullback and has done OK as just that this year.

Going to be lot of squad to fill between
now and next March.
The club must be confident they will get Milford’s signature.
