1. Mamo
2. Ross
3. ?
4. Gagai
5. Aku
6. Mullen
7. Hodkinson
8. Snowden
9. Randell
10. Stockwell or Paea
11. K. Sims
12. Rochow
13. Smith

14. Levi
15. Mataora
16. Tapine
17. Paea or Stockwell

Dunno who plays centre. Would like to get Feeney in the mix somewhere. I don't think Feeney is a halfback, but he could be a good something else. We need to hope just about all our youth maximizes their potential.

The 2 and 3 is why I think Brown needed to break the budget on a centre if it was possible. Sure it would be nice to bring in 3 quality signings, but at the very least we need 1 signing in a position we are unbelievably weak in, and that's centre. I know Sione is only suspended, but what happens if we get an injury.

I honestly don't even know who plays centre for us, we've got nothing that stands out in NSW Cup that I can think of. Round 1 is way too early to be talking about bringing up some young player who isn't ready or moving a guy like Tapine to the centres as a stop-gap. We have to spend money.

Side note- that Inglis heading to the Broncos rumour popped it's head up again. If that were to happen I will walk away from this game.

Brisbane getting an unfair advantage over the rest of the comp isn't anything new.

 

[perverse]

You're talking about the club that had Darren Lockyer at $250k under the cap. Of course they can afford Inglis. Broncos fans will tell you he's on Hodges money, which was probably $150k a year + a can of coke on game days.

 

[Spot On]

Oh, FFS there's no way a long term rep player would have been able to command those dollars throughout his career.;-)

 

[Still Nutty]

GI wont be going to the Donkeys. They dont have enough for Roberts under their cap so Inglis would be well out of the equation

hhhmmm...GI - Newcastle much closer to Bowraville, could do with a replacement for Gidley, what are the chances???:?:::shock:=P~

Also Hunter sports high which he played for making him a new south welshman is in newie he could make a return to his grass roots

Our biggest dilemma will be deciding who plays fullback, Inglis or Hayne?

I think you'll find they'll both be playing in the centres once RTS walks out of his NZ contract tomorrow and signs a 4 year deal with us worth a total of 100k

RLW today suggesting we are still after Roby.

I was reading today that the Broncos may need to lose Dale Copley to fit in James Roberts, I rate Copley and he wouldn't command the same price tag as some of the bigger name centres out there and doesn't seem to have the attitude problem that some of them do. What do people think?

 

[PhilGould]

I like Copley. He would be a good pickup for the right price.

 

[The Showstopper]

Read today Pete Mata'Utia could possibly make way for James Roberts at The Dragons. I would take Pete over Copley. Pete has become all we knew he had in him. I think he and Sione in the centres together would be some weapon. Dane to fullback.

 

[Frederick]

Pretty sure I read that Pete re-signed with the dragons today for about 333k a season

He's been a bit unlucky with injuries 2 out of 3 past seasons. Had a really good season in 2014. Looked pretty good when fit and firing. Could do a lot worse. Would be a good pick up for us at the right price.

Hope he is better than our last English hooker...

Hope he leaves with the same amount of Grand Final rings.

watching joey blow up deluxe at jackson after receiving yet another pass around the bootlaces was always entertaining

nice article today about all manly's signings. myles, lussick, lewis brown, koroisau, taupau, walker. knights will be struggling to ever make the 8 again when the big clubs can do that.

 

[Caped Crusader]

Copley would be nice. Big, strong and with improvement still in him

I was excited reading that headline until I saw the mole wrote it.
