They should get the walker brothers as assistants. The new rules would work with their game play and it might help us one day get Sam walker…
Matthew Elliott would also be a good target, he's with another club ATM though, can't remember who.Parker and Hodges would be good ins but need to get a tactician - Henry me likey.

The guy in dark blue goes pretty well. 100% success rate to be precise.Hodges - backs

Biggest issue is how much money we pay lodge and TPJ to move on. If we can do it from this year's cap that is the best possible outcome. Talk is we will pay half Lodge's salary to move him on about 1-1.2 in total. If we could wear a lot of this in this years cap it will help immenselyView attachment 13617
This cap screwed for 5 years talk is rubbish. We can have 23 players removed by the 2023 season if we wanted.

I don’t think we will need to pay much of TPJs contract. I think a big reason he’s being moved in is because we don’t need to pay much / anything for him to go, where as with lodge and Flegler we need to pay a lot.Biggest issue is how much money we pay lodge and TPJ to move on. If we can do it from this year's cap that is the best possible outcome. Talk is we will pay half Lodge's salary to move him on about 1-1.2 in total.

I want what Joey is smoking sometimes. 5 years to fix the salary cap... you could EASILY have 90% of this squad COMPLETLY off the books in a maximum of 3 years.Joey said on 9 that he spoke to Kev a month or so ago, and that Kev went into detail about the state of the salary cap - the conversation has Joey believing that the rebuild will take 5+ years to fix it.
Have always liked Kodi. He should come back as a 14.Kodi coming back?

Would be a decent cheap 6 option with Reynolds, or backup half.
I think sua would be pretty valuable to Reynolds considering he’ll be moving to a new club and state. A familiar face and someone who’ll know his game will be a big help in getting him settled.I imagine a strong forward pack including Haas, TPJ and Lodge was used as a selling point for a bloke like Reynolds. Now we are gonna be going out with a Flegler/Haas/Carrigan starting middle. This will only work if we sign both Su'a and Capewell to cover our now weaker edges.

Would love SJ.Should we seriously be considering SJ? Him and Reynolds….he doesn’t seem to have any suitors atm maybe we could get him at 650k/700k?
Yes two ageing halves is risky but I feel having both would potentially limit the pressure placed on having just one dominant half and limiting the decline in doing so.
spit balling here, love to here what others think?
