According to Big League the following players are off contract for parra.

Wade Mckinnon
Aaron Cannings
Ben Smith
Dean Widders
Paul Stringer
Ashley Graham
John Morris
Matt Petersen *
Luke O'Dwyer *
Luke Burt
Brett Delaney
Henrey Perenara
Adam Peek
Fui Fui Moi Moi
Jack Afamasaga
Chad Robinson
Jamie Lyon

* already signed with Gold Coast.

Who do you think we will keep from this list. Why is Judas listed?

Personally I think we should look at keeping Fui, Peek / Stringer, Mckinnon, Ben Smith, Delaney, H.Perenara, Cannings, Widders. The rest I think can be offloaded.

And do whe have the cap room to keep most of them. Will be very interesting..... this.

** Whohooooo my 200th post.

Wade Mckinnon (not fussed - average players are easily replaced)
Aaron Cannings (same as above)
Ben Smith (Keeper)
Dean Widders (Keeper)
Paul Stringer (Depending on $$$ he can be kept - solid performer)
Ashley Graham (I'm glad he's finally off contract)
John Morris (Probably demands more money than he's worth - would prefer to see someone young get a chance at 5/8)
Matt Petersen * (Should have p!ssed him off ages ago)
Luke O'Dwyer * (Would have liked to see him stay)
Luke Burt (Hope they keep him - great clubman and like his kicking game)
Brett Delaney (Keeper)
Henrey Perenara (Probably won't keep him but I wouldn't mind if they did)
Adam Peek (I think he'll be released)
Fui Fui Moi Moi (Keeper)
Jack Afamasaga (I think he'll be released)
Chad Robinson (Hopefully they'll keep him)
Jamie Lyon (Get f*cked)

If BS wants a super motivated team for round 1 he should go in with:

1. McKinnon
2. Burt
3. Benny
4. Delaney
5. Graham
6. Widders
7. Timmy
8. Cannings
9. Henry
10.Stringer
11.Afamasaga
12.Peek
13.Robinson

Note: This is made up of the available players off contract (ie. interested in impressing Hagan in round 1) plus Timmy (interested in proving that he won't suffer 2nd year syndrome and proving it against his childhood idol)

Should mean we see players playing out of their skins for contracts in the first half of the season.

My priorities would be in this order

Ben Smith: long term
Dean Widders: another 2 years would be tops
Brett Delaney: assuming he shows promise in first grade this year - long term
Fui Fui Moi Moi: i think we can keep him cheap
John Morris: Highly dependent on the success of Delaney.
Aaron Cannings: have to be downgraded $$. Form crucial
Ashley Graham: down grade. But good to have expereinced depth in centres
Luke Burt: took a cut last time, should show loyalty to him.
Wade Mckinnon: not sure.. I think Reddy will come on.
Jack Afamasaga: needs to show something
Adam Peek: One year max, brings tons of expereince
Chad Robinson: I don't think we will have room for him again.
Paul Stringer: Can't see him staying on. one year max.
Henrey Perenara: as above
Matt Peterson* : Thanks for your service
Luke O'Dwyer *: thanks for your service
Jamie Lyon: Who?

* already signed with Gold Coast.
