Is this accurate and does it match the recent thread on TCT? I want to know how many spots we have for next season.

agree - big strong talented ....... though if he comes his knee will probably blow up and it will end up another disaster we will have to try and medically retire
I just read his wiki. He has done his ACL, 3 times. He is a massive risk. I’d now probably pass.

I have no inside info whereas TCT might. This thread pretty much matches the signings tracker on nrl.com, with some extra detail.

I still say we try and lure Isaiah Tass from Souths .... they have too many backs with wighton joining .... we can help their cap space

Ray Stone is the only player to have done his ACL at the club since Trent Elkin returned I believe in 2019.

I am not sure if its pot luck or if its training loads/methods we are doing. But we haven't had regular ACL's like a Roosters who have had multiple players who have done ACLs in the past few years.
