He would not be a good signing.
I can see Sheens thinking, Move Hino to Second Row and Braith at Lock.
Just makes our pack even weaker.
We're gonna have big bikkies to spend next year, don't fritter it away on tired old blokes looking to bump up their retirement.
We've been down this avenue before and it was shit, only a plethora of talented juniors got us out of that quagmire.
I don't think we have the same quality coming through to save us this time around though.
Sign a proper hard running back rower like Bukuya while they are still in their mid 20's, get them in their prime.
Cheaper and better.
Buy a f**king halfback, please.
Luke Kelly is a decent 7. If Cronk stays at Melbourne, he may want to find another club. We'd get him young and cheap and keen to play.
Get a speedster on the wing. I can't find it in my heart right now to get rid of Beau Ryan, he's been the only consistently good player over all 4 games this season.
Buy another prop, I don't care if they are bench quality only, we need to fill that hole.
Surely all of that could be done with the cash free'd up by Ellis and Tuqiri leaving.
