Not Farah, too divisive and honestly he's not much chop anymore. I don't rate Levi in attack, he's not an improvement on what we have.

I think Segeyaro is off contract, perhaps we could get him on board with the promise of a starting jersey? Young Josh Chudleigh has been cast off a bit by North QLD but he's talented, could be worth a punt mid season (and cheap).

We could go all out and offer Jake Granville big money, but I don't think he'd move. Maybe Api Koroisau?
I’d take Api in a heartbeat.
Edit: not a euphimism

What ever we do, Could significantly impact a few juniors and we may suffer the consequences of that decision and it will determine what way the club is heading in the future.
In relation to Mahoney, Schneider
If the club buys an experienced hooker then both boys will and can continue there development.
But if we purchase a younger hooker then iv no doubt we could loose one or both.
Im not saying either will play Nrl but both definitely are showing promise. That's the risk you take

I think you need to worry about first grade first, honestly. Having great juniors is fantastic, but there is no guarantee they will ever be ready. Look at Anthony Mitchell...Schnieder is 17, I don't think we can worry about him at the moment. And given Mahoney is only 19 himself I don't think we can turn down a quality younger hooker in case he kicks on, either.

You have been watching Corey Norman play right.?
That's our problem, Who from Nsw cup can play in the halves in Nrl.? No one at all.
No competition for spots.
Roberts would be cheap.He is also very creative.
Would put pressure on Norman/Mosses to perform.

As for your comment regarding a hooker. I totally agree but who do you suggest. There isnt many out there.
Would Farrah fill avoid for a year or so.? maybe Danny Levi from Knights now Slade Griffen is the starting 9.
Also we need more than just a hooker.
We require 2 big explosive middels
We require 1 back rower
We require 1 centre
We require Semi back
We only need a winger and another attacking middle forward, unless Evans comes good. A better hooker would be nice but Pritchard and King can do the job.

No one good was available for a decent price.

Peats wanted 600k plus, Rein wanted 3-400k. They were the best available (and I'd have honestly paid 600k for Peats given were we sit) but Rein is a plodder and not many sides splash 600k on a hooker.

Look at Canberra, they lost Hodgson and the only first grade level replacement available was Havili, who can't decide if he's a hooker or a lock or a back rower....

We need a hooker, but we don't need to just grab whatever rubbish is available.

So you reckon Titans even with Peats and 80min hooker signed Rein for 400k as a back up?

Jesus the guy - more than likely existed.

Jesus son or spiritual effigy of the creator of the universe, the healer, the conjurer of miracles and dude who got better after he was dead - not so much.

Yeah i always just think that he visited a village that everyone said had Leprosy (when it was really just a skin irritation) and he happened to go there and after it the irritation went away and it gets documented that this guy cured them.

Dude gets hung on a crossed (not impaled) and passes out (because he was f**king hammered from the massive piss up they had at the "last supper") and they say he's dead and they put him in a cave and a few days later he gets his shit together and walks out and 'he is risen".

I mean humans never embellish anything, this one time i caught this 20 foot shark and then once i got it in the boat it jumped out. Do you believe me?

I find it funny at the outrage over Folau's beliefs against gay people, i mean people can tell me to believe in an imaginary being that i find absurd and i'm supposed to be ok with it but someone can't express their belief's based on their imaginary friends direction (in his mind) because it is not PC these days?

What gives you that impression?

I reckon after being rejected by everyone, Rein realised he was going to be stuck in NSW Cup behind a failed halfback for another year and took less to play under his mate Brennan.

f**ken liar!

TBH I don't believe you'd be silly enough to drag a twenty foot shark in the boat in the first place...
