Wilton should have been in the top couple of priority re-signings & never been on the open market.

I'm still on the Teig bus but I'm up the back.

I wouldn't be surprised if he's struggling with the speed of the game in his first year as a fulltime 80 minute player.

For example in the first 10 rounds last year he averaged 70 minutes and played 6 full games (80 mins). For the second half of the year he averaged a mere 47 minutes a game. These latter games were arguably his best.

This year he's averaging 80 minutes obviously and he's making more errors and more MTs.

I think he may be still working out how to play under Fateig

True, but surely there’s no waDE they put last year’s number 12 back out on the edge…?
Not as the main man but I'd be happy to rest Teig if needed and bring The Captain on for him instead of slotting him in as a middle. Mind you, the only way Teig gets used to the weekly 80 minutes is to persist. FItz will certainly persist with him

If you think Sorenson (current) and Wilton (next) are on the same cash I have a bridge to sell you
Well they have Liam Martin only on $400k allegedly so Sorro must be on a Mark Gasnier $2.67 and a pie deal. He got a gig through a train and trial thing.

Penrith would have to shed some way bigger name to get Wilton

Correct.

Wilton is a former NSW u/20s captain (in a team that included Crichton, Burton, Leniu - all squeezed out of their team), 40-50 games in. Hitting straps. He will get a good deal. He is not leaving - it will get done.

Teig is getting better, there is an upside for the future. Also I’m worried about paying heaps for an end of life player. Keeping the team together for the next two seasons is important.

With Griffin gone at Drags, I wonder if opportunity to sign someone for remainder of season who could help.
More looking at Prop area, we do have spot available due to releasing Ikavalu
