The two signings, would you go with:

Capewell and Lee?

I'd love to get Capewell and Mann to be honest.

I wouldnt bother with Lee.

Capewell has already been paid approx 30% of his 400k this year, so for 300 for the remainder and 450 next year. He would replace Glenn very well.

One is almost certainly going to be a Dummy Half to assist Turpin, so probably Isaac Luke assuming that Billy Walters is absolutely not going to be released, which seems to be the case.

The other will likely be more ISC depth, so I'd imagine Gamble if he isn't already signed here. The club has 29 players on it's website so I'm unsure which of those 29 isn't part of Kevvie's 28 man count, but Gamble or Hetherington are the only obvious potential ones I can see.

I wonder if Hetherington might be in the side sooner rather than later IF he goes well in ISC. He looked alright in the trial (very small sample size I know) but also, looked like he could do a B.Smith type role at the Storm - part hooker / part lock. I think if he goes well in ISC, he is the PERFECT number 14 for this side.
 
I don't think Capewell is what we're after, definately not as a centre anyway. If being looked at as a second row prospect, i think I'd rather lock up Piakura if his potential is as good as the better judges are saying.
Definate no to Isaac Luke, has had his day and is now too slow for NRL .

I agree, focus has to be fixing the spine as well as a proper leader.

I think Capewell is a second row. Surely no one was considering him as a full time centre. He’d be replacing glen until Piakura earned the starting position in 2 seasons time, instead of rushing our young players developments
 
Yeah fair enough,i thought Piakura was closer than a couple of years away.

Big question marks on if we keep Piakura. Capwell for the right money is a good signing.
 
Kurt Mann with what looks like a serious knee injury in the first 30 mins of the season.
He was made to be a Bronco.

Sorry to everyone who was against signing Corey Allen. The guy has been abysmal. Completely missing, I thought he must have been off inured 😂😂

Not wrong, I'm a massive fan obviously but he has been really, really poor.
 
EDIT: Wrong thread
