Excellent retention, very important we kept him.

Does this spell the end for Jayden??

If you watch the video it seems they understand they have only this year and next to play together.

 

[Frenzy.]

Yay

I wouldn't be shocked if this might be there last year together.

If Jayden can secure a good long term contract they Sharks might let him go.

And there's a few clubs desperate for a good number 9

 

[Footballin]

Great to hear Brailey signed on, need to worry about the no 9 position in the Shire, this kid is going to be something special for the Sharks.

I can't see why we can't play with two hookers, most clubs do. Jayden is filling out pretty well, no reason he can't play hooker for the first 30, then move into the backrow. It seems to be happening a bit now anyway.

 

[txta2]

Can carve up teams at number 6 as well.
7. SJ
6. BB

22 . Chad

Exactly

 

[Griffoshark66]

Yep sure is. Nikora is only this year though.

Throw the bank at him.

 

[Card Shark]

This is where our $350k less salary cap could hurt us.

Yes it's designed that way.
Solution, look to the future.
Next premiership window starts in 2021. Make sure these young guys have the experience, Wado, A-Fi, SJ, Chad and Moyza as the elders with the young fellas now becoming real full time footy players.
Our succession planning is very good.

 

[txta2]

Yikes just realised how much he is getting. That's overs for a rookie only playing 15 mins a game!!!! No wonder he is smiling, could cost them Nikora unless more players are moved on.

Or is it an indirect way of keeping Jayden as well - money still ends up with the same family after all...

Jaydens contract ends earlier as well. Interesting because in an interview last week they were pretty much convinced they can't play together forever.

Interesting, very interesting

I smell a loophole

At a few clubs. Reed Mahoney was shifting the to caboose of the scrum before Will Smith was injured. Brandon Smith is a hooker playing backrow at the Storm. Knights have done it with Levi to get Mann on. Jazz Tevaga plays as much backrow as hooker. The other Sione Katoa at Penrith plays backrow.

Common trend now

 

[Card Shark]

They are both talented players, we need to have talented players.

 

[Defer to the coifed]

Bulldogs Keiran Holland is also a hooker apparently. Thats a weird one.

Yep, B1 occasionally filling that roll.
I would not be surprised if they are training up B2 as a back up half as Well, just a couple of things I've noticed in his play.
Two predictions I'm going to Make,
if B1 and B2 are the priorities it may see Flange Jnr leave.
If one of the B's leave I'll take a punt and say B1 to the Roosters. He went for them as a kid and Friend's time will be about up.
