Unlikely when teams are unable to negotiate with them until November.

I like him ,id buy him, kicks goals can cover 6 and 7 and wouldnt break the bank. With AR injurys codys indifferent form, at 27 would be good cover. Definately worth buying

John Bateman would be a perfect replacement for Sutto. Wayne has good association with him as well. Fingers crossed.

Going nowhere, looking to extend with Canberra.
Like Ryan Matterson, don't want any player who walks out one year into a three year deal joining the club. It's the complete opposite of what John Sutton was for South Sydney.

Su’A will come good with a strong preseason

Sironen and Johns to step up

Need a class centre and imo a better 5/8
Cody plays only when he feels like it

 

[callmack1]

I'm hoping Su'A will really step up after a strong and full Pre-Season too!

The Lurker is reporting that we are going to chase David Fifita from the Broncos. That'd be an incredible signing but who knows if it's even possible.

If I do the math

GI 1 mil
Sutto 500k?
G Burg 400k?
K Turner 300k?
Britt 100k
Others 300k

After Cook upgrade, Roberts and Su’A there should be some cash around and TPAs could also come into play, particularly if there is a play for Latrell

I could be wrong but i feel like i read somewhere that Sutton's contract only had a minimum effect on the cap, with the veteran allowance topping him up.
I also believe we don't get the full cap relief when it comes to GI's retirement.

Liam Knight warrants an upgrade, possibly Doueihi who'll hold out through next season imo and i hope the wheels are in motion to lock in Murray long term. Then there's the Cody situation where he'll either be upgraded or replaced - either way it won't be cheap.

Anyone at 100k will need to be replaced by someone else at 100k, as will any additional players to round out the top 30, so they'll cancel each other out.

There will be cap room for a good player or two but i personally don't expect a big money star.

I believe Souths will bring in a couple of big names.

Thanks mate.

Thanks mate.

I hope they lure big Jordan Grant from qld to Redfern. The only other queenslander I'd want is David Fafita.

Tyrone Taukamo: The dual-code teenage prodigy chased by 15 NRL clubs

Obviously untested in a first grade environment but following similar footsteps to Kalyn Ponga and even Angus Crichton playing Union at an elite GPS school...

Us or Canberra they reckon.

I'd give this guy a pen today.
