C Welch $1mil lol. The Dragons will probably pay that so that their Ben Hunt payment doesn't look out of proportion...

Rule out Fanua Blake. The report said he was released on compassionate grounds as he wants to leave Sydney and his wife has relatives in NZ.

  Would of loved Blake absolute beast

Eels are apparently keen on John Asiata. Would be very good buy of the bench and to take some pressure of Nathan Brown. Has great play making skills for a foward and would help our attack.

  He offers more than Nathan, with ball in hand, good step as well.

  I rated that Asiata. But unfortunately, the cows have messed around with him, playing him 5/8, edge, middle and even hooker. Guy has great skills and would be an ideal benchie to \change up tempo of games.

None of them, we need to be scouting out the next Fonua-Blake instead of paying $700k a season for the current one.

Afoa for a bench spot.

Asiata. We have a solid enough team but we get predictable. Asiata can provide a bit of x factor in the middle when the forwards are getting tired. We need to recruit skill.

  Was Asiata a Parra jnr ? I like him for all the reason listed , either him or Bunty
