My brother is a Tigers fan and rates Naiqama highly, his defence is his issue but he dosen't want to lose him. I think he would be good for us. He can play centre, wing and fullback and is at the very least a first grade quality player. Our backline dosen't look completely awful if we have somehting like

1. Peter Mata'utia
2. Kevin Naiqama
3. Dane Gagai
4. Nathan Ross
5. Ken Sio

With depth like Elliott, C Mata'utia and Denniss we badly need some solid outside backs

John Bateman from Wigan looks ready for the NRL. He has a lot of go in him and I hope the rumours that Browny has him as a priority forward signing for 2018 are true. He is the bloke who beat the snot out of Lee Mossop at a training dust up. Very skilled. Look out for him in the four nations as he most likely will form the backrow for England with Whitehead and Sam Burgess.

I would be keen to get Kev back, I really liked what he produced for us when he was here and I think he's been pretty good for the tigers too. It was a shame that he was playing behind two very entrenched wingers during his time at the Knights otherwise he would have played FG earlier. He would walk into a wing position at this point in time.

I don't know much about Latimore but I think he's a middle forward with a fair bit of NRL experience right? Might fit the bill of what Brown is looking for?

Latimore is going to Cronulla.

Toohey reckons we are still hopeful on Wardle and have set money aside for another signing depending on who becomes available.

He also said the Sio and Starling signings are at good value.

Are we?

Trying to get him 12 months early just seems logical to me.

Well we want him so you would think we rate him.

Honest question, I literally have no idea what he brings to the table - never seen him play and highlights online are extremely scant.

If he was hyped or an England international I could understand why we went out to get him, but on paper I see a "tweener" who hasn't made any plays worth recording.

I haven't seen him either but I think you're taking a bit of poetic license saying we are "so high" on him. We have signed him, that's all. I haven't seen the club heralding him as anything special or people here expecting him to be anything more than an hopefully an upgrade on Pete.

I have also never seen him play and don't know uch about him. However I know Brown coached him at Huddersfield so maybe he is a fan and wants him here

I'm reading that Dunamis Liu has been released by St. George for an opportunity with another club. This guy plays prop right? Maybe another potential target for a bit of depth in the front row?

We have enough battlers, surely we aren't chasing more.

Oh wait, carry on.
