The "quality players" we could lose, or the quality players we could gain instead of Smith? I feel Granville will be lost and we don't want him playing for another club. He will end up being like Isaac Luke. Ridiculously fast and evasive out of dummy half. It could work if Hodges decides to retire after this year. I imagine we will have to go of some players who are still under contract for next year. As for the "quality players" we could sign, there are plenty of good players off contract next year that we could aim to sign. I think we should try get Fifita if we were to lose Hannant (People have been saying he could be going to the Titans or something). He doesn't seem like he wants to be at the Sharks forever. Obviously DCE is on top of everybody's list. And Tautau Moga as well.
