2017 Team Line up and recruitment

I was just reading the who's of contract for next year it seams that we have the most players off contract I can see us having a bit of money to chase a couple of big name players the positions I see we need strengthening is front row forward and a quality hooker.

The way I read things (correct me if I am wrong) with the salary cap mess is that we were cap compliant this year until the dodgy third party deals were added to our cap for this year from what I am lead to believe the two main third party deals ( Peats & Watmough ) are now gone as well as the nett worth of around $1.1 million off the cap for next year assuming that Watmough was on $700,000 and Peats $400,000 + as well as Junior leaving and a number of under performing players being off contract we can let go so I see next year as being our year if we can pick up a couple of good signings i.e Segayaro and Tamaou or Klemmer whats everyones thoughts?

  • Segeyaro ?? Hown many no 9s do you want ,klemmer wont come and tamou just might not fit under cap nelson and king will go up for sure then have to keep dargan ,jack morris coming through ,twal , fummiano etc ,few nrl quality kids in ball ,parry ,curran,dressler ,,you have to make sure youve got everyone you want from your own backyard 1st dean before you look over the fence mate
    • Don't be so sure on klemmer.
  • Klemmer would want way too much for his experience and attitude. Someone like Tamou would be good, but i doubt he would come here. I like Seggy but im hoping Pritchard steps up.

  • Not the biggest fan of Klemmer.. Can't see him leaving the pups
  • Nelson Asofa Solomona is your answer for a prop and probably Segeyaro as hooker if both King and Nelson leave
  • Clay Priest, Abraham Papalii, Sam Moa, David Fifitia and Luke Lewis are other names I would go for

    I would go for some Storm players at the back like Vunivalu

    Also sack most of Wenty Players to add Seggy and one dominating forward
  • Klemmer is an idiot. he won't get the same luck with parra at the judiciary.
    • every week he's there.
  • Well let's make this completely insane and order a side of Hayne he might be available
  • What if Hayne fails in the NFL?
