I'd prefer we kept our money for an enforcer in our pack
He'll definitely get an offer from another club that's worth more than we would want to pay

Happy not to, he plays almost exclusively off the cuff. You can afford one of those in a backline, but I think with him and Duges it could get a tad messy. Duges is a great X factor.

I'd prefer us to throw a few dollars at Chad Townsend. He is again stuck in reserve grade, after moving to NZ. Maybe an opportunity for a start could lure him for minimal money.

Hes in reserve grade for a reason. Second club he can't crack it.

He's in reserve grade due to being stuck behind 2 internationals. A caretaker rookie coach has understandably gone with experience for now.

Last year he was behind Carney and Robson. He can play a bit and would be cheap.
He's at least Williams standard, who's only contracted this year anyway.

Townsend is in reserves for a reason he is pritty shit I have more faith in Drew Hutchinson.

I agree, no to both. We have Witt & Widdop for now, with some options to develop & replace Witt later this season or next year if necessary.

A right royal cockup, by Benji and his manager. He said he needed new challenge, then quits, he said would not play against Tigers, but now wants to come back into NRL. He will be a distraction for any team who signs him up, the media circus has just begun.

Absolutely 1000% yes!!

No. 7..Jersey is his!

Our Halfback and 5/8 play the same game atm...we need a diff style player to Widdup in the halves...Benji would be out to prove himself plus at a $100K best money we spent on player since Phil Blake...actually he could play that "Phil Blake" role very successfully...

Think about it..

The days of low percentage Benji plays are over. I don't think the tigers will even want him as they are traveling better without him. He is a disruptive influence. And a poor defender. No no no no no!

Apparently he was spotted on the weekend looking at real estate in Blakehurst. Right near Cooper Cronk and Craig Bellamy's houses
