I know this has been discussed before, but could we keep all 3 wingers and try Ronnie out at FB…?!?

He played in that spot for QLD U/18’s…

Short term fix till Ison or Dykes take the spot.
Then what do you do with Ronnie?

I say bite the bullet. Tap Big Sexy on the shoulder and bring Sam in.
 

Frenzy.

Doubtful we'll be outlaying what big Tom is getting offered if you believe what's being written.
Don't think he's getting offered that much. Heard on one of the radio shows or podcasts today the KNights have baulked at his asking price.

He'll end up with Phlegmo I reckon. They have Molo money

Good teams lose players I get that, my point is we haven’t won anything yet. Losing great depth or premium bench players brings us back to the field. When we have won a premiership then these blokes deserve the big bucks and pay day. All this does is reduces our window imo. A bit of loyalty being shown to the club that gave him his shot too wouldn’t go astray either.

Yeah sure but I’m not so convinced that all the deals we do are in our favour. At some point the players say, “yeah thanks for you help but I’m going for the money” which is fine, but don’t expect the fans to be happy about it.

Hazleton i think would get a lot more of a run here than Atko.

But I also have faith that Fitzy and Mooney would work something out if they really wanted to.
Exactly.

If we wanted to keep Big Tommy we would have.

Obviously either the dollars he wanted or was bing offered by the shyte Stains didn’t make sense or we want to save the money for the great young forward prospects coming through.

Just on forwards coming through, I was underwhelmed by Tuku the other night.
I know he didn't get many minutes, but he really didn't make any sort of impact that I recall.
Not sure that he's being used correctly.

Lazy imo. Or not being instructed to use his gifted size.

“If we wanted to keep a player we would have” makes no sense whatsoever and is designed to make fans feel better.

Otherwise it can only mean we didn’t put an offer in to retain him.

How it actually played out is we offered what we could and he said yeah nah seeya and the Fitz Mooney thing is not really a thing.

If he goes yes I will be annoyed, but let’s not make it out that it’s all good and we’d have kept him if we wanted him.
