DEFINITELY. SPEED, SPEED, SPEED AND MORE SPEED.

Something that none of our coaches have placed importance on.

A speedy fullback, a speedy winger, a speedy centre, a speedy 5/8th, a speedy half back, a speedy lock, a speedy second rower, a speedy front rower and finally, a speedy hooker.

We would be known as the Speed Team.

whatever your drinking dave, I want some

Flanagan wants Ravalawa and Max Feagai to leave and Bird is most likely leaving too. Lomax and Tamale are gone. That's 5 outside backs less and we are only getting Val Holmes. Surely we go hard for someone like Lehi Hopoate, Bostock or Averillo.

Our priority should be to address the makeup of our spine. Yes, our forwards pack is a major problem, however our spine of Slone, Flannigan, Hunt, and Liddle, is substandard. So I suggest we do some great recruiting to address this situation:

1. Tedesco - good defender, good in attack, and can organise our backline.
6. Flannigan
7. Reynolds - experienced halfback, good goal kicker, and good leader.
9. Cook - Experienced hooker

Much more experienced and capable spine.

I thought Ramsey had been signed for 2025 as well- not sure where he fits in however.

I thought Ramsey was signed to the local junior competition. Not in the NRL top 30 squad.

We need a professional recruitment officer to attend to our need to let go players still under contract and not wanted by the Dragons for 2025 on.

Think Averillo would be a good signing, especially if Bird goes to the Tigers.
Averillo is very versatile, and can cover several positions.

I think Averillos value just went right up after having a big game in the halves... be interesting to see if he can do it again this weekend.
