Usual suspects Roosters and Bulldogs involved here chasing Tapine, we should definitely be going after him. Would add a lot to our pack.

Tapine is on pretty good money already, so not sure Roosters could fit him in but Dogs could certainly throw some cash his way. If the Sharks wanted him though I'm sure we can out bid everyone.

Urggh it would be hard to support Rapana but here I am supporting Chambers so why not!

Rapana and Fergo aren't terrible signings. Both solid wingers with experience. Wouldn't cost much either. Rather have those two than Tracey and Hiroti that's for sure

Both would be the type of signings top clubs would make.

Experienced, rep class, cheap.

e.g. Morris brothers at the Roosters on a pittance.

Good on both him and the club.

Don’t want this sounding the wrong way…but I hope for not too much money. He’s a depth / specialist utility benchie in a good squad for mine. Nothing wrong with that…but shouldn’t cost too much either.
Looks dangerous every time he touches the ball.
If woods played with as much gusto he culd captain the blues

And looks frightened every time the ball is run at him.

I have faith in Fitz though and I'm sure he can be taught defence,

Hes a halfback and wouldnt be the first 6 or 7 who didnt like tackling. Unfortunatley we dont have a Tony carrol to bodyguard him like wayne had for his star captain Lockyer.
He wouldnt be missing as many as our current 7 is.
Only bloke troubling the other side more at the moment is Kennedy.

Has he played halfback for the Sharks? He's been playing wing and centre. He can't be scared to tackle when he's out there without a body guard

Yours is a weird reply. Does not refute he is a shit defender AT ALL

Traceys a half.
A 6 or 7.
Most are shit defenders unfortuantely because of the laws of physics.
Thats why you stand a bigger bloke who loves tackling beside them.
You cant do that when the 6 or 7 is picked to play centre or wing. Theyre on their own.
How was that hard to understand?

Put chad or luke brooks or moses or ben hunt on the wing and run miko siva at them see how they go.

I think that's fair - three years is also a lengthy deal for a player whose best position is still unclear.

Now to re-sign Kennedy.

Sheesh it was nice to read that about Lockyer and Carol as I always used to think that when people were going on about how great Lockyer was. Tonie Carol was best Minder in the game back then .

Sir Thomas Bishop had John Maguire covering Ray Corcoran and Ray was a winger.
