If the Storm can get him there is no reason we can't, but if we nab Brown and Vave I'm more than happy with our front row stocks. Just need a dummy half, halfback and a yong back up winger/centre looking for a chance.
I'd be looking at;
Halfback-Cameron Cullen, or Ata Hingano. Not much else out there (presuming Green goes to Manly), we may as well see what Cornish has to offer for a season with Dargan the understudy. Wouldn't be upset with Benji on a one year deal, but nothing more than that and I would prefer one of the younger kids.
Hooker-Adam Clydesdale, Josh Chudleigh, Jayden Hodges, Grant Garvey. Again, there isn't a lot out there. Mitch Rein is the "biggest" name hooker off contract, but he is absolutely awful IMO and has a ridiculously high opinion of himself so definitely won't be cheap. Those four are young, talented, not going to cost the earth, have FG experience and will be keen to prove themselves.
Prop-Obviously Nathan Brown, NAS, Jordan MacLean, Paul Vaughn (if he wants to move). But there are a couple of younger kids I'd love for us to sign. Andy Saunders from Penrith is a real young gun. Herman Ese'ese, Francis Molo, Abraham Papalii all absolute giant young kids. Zane Musgrove is off contract too.
Three-Quarters-I'd love us to have a crack at Zak Hardaker, personally. I rate him really highly and Penrith sure don't seem to. Can play 1-6, is a goal kicker, Test rep and despite all of that I think he'd come at a reasonable-ish price if he wants to prove himself. Otherwise the talented young kids looking for a go...Jonus Pearson, Marion Seve, Nathan Davis (also a goal kicker), Corey Denniss, Tom Hughes, Jahrome Hughes, Tautau Moga, George Jennings, Robert Jennings, Hymel Hunt, Tautalatasi Tasi (although he's more a centre/backrower)....
There's plenty of props and backs worth taking a chance on so I don't see us going without if we make some offers...hooker and halves are the issue.
