Now that there is a great idea.

Manly did a far better job in turning Tommy Talau into a 1st grader in 1 year than the Tigers did in about 3 years.
Could the reasons be that these backs go alright elsewhere is because they go to a club that's got good fwds and a coach.
It seems that we're doing alright in pathways unearthing these stars but stuff things up later.
I think we need to stop handing out development and top 30 spots willy nilly otherwise we miss out on keeping the gun players. Just a gut feeling.

Large and Brooks will be a combo at Manly if and when DCE moves on. Ha ha, two ex wests tigers players.
We could be faced with the possibility of losing both Large and Galvin. I can't see us keeping Fainu and Galvin either.
Good luck Benji because it's a case of damn if you do and damned if you don't. If we win that's awesome but it will drive up the value of these players.
Maybe having a plethora of halves was a master-stroke as we might need some in the near future. :)

The Broncos from the frying pan into the fire.
Madge won’t be able to resist this offer and NSW prob will let him do what he wants
I really hope he takes the job so we can know once and for all see if he can still perform at club level and not just soo. If he was clever he’d resist but he won’t be able to

Maguire is only worth a shot in a comp encompassing 3 matches a year & where the opposition r missing key irreplaceable players like Tino Fiegler Munster.Ud b mad to consider the over-rated one dimensional fraudster for a head coaching role of an NRL team.My advise to any prospective employer like the Broncos is check out his performance in the horrific WT mockumentary b4 u make a decision.

If we do start winning, then maybe the players aren’t so keen to leave?

That's the test isn't it but if a player is presented with a bucket load of cash, 9 out of 10 would take it, ala Luai who could easily be in more grand finals. Ya never know, it could be with us :)
Luai and Galvin could be the most exciting halves pairing in the NRL for years to come.
It's a darn shame we can't get another big bopper though. I'd even take Nelson as he seems fit enough for a couple of more years.

He only needs to last the first 10 mins hahaha

It will ultimately end up being a salary cap decision, for all players, it’s the price you pay for being successful
Look at the pennies, though the they and the Storm keep producing
