I hope they go hard for Leo Thompson. He plays with aggression and effort. 550k would be a great buy.

I think Ryles would have gone for him hard if he was able to offload more of our expensive forwards. I expect to see a much different forward pack in 2 years with Lane, Matto, Joe O, Paulo all gone.
"I saw him for NSW Funa-Iuta and found his movement lacked and wasn't agile enough for the edge, missed a couple of tackles against more speedy runners. I can see him as a middle.
Talagi I think you're right about that he could just stay in Flegg…"
"Funa Luta was probably our best player. He is developing really well. Works his ass off today in defence which is something many others didn't do today. But I will maintain this again, he will be a better middle than edge from what I have seen. Just…"
"I'm not up to date on our juniors as such, but the bottom line EA is with our overall structure, we should have a huge back up base of juniorplayers. It seems that other areas complimentary to ourselves pull them out of their arses.
This is one area…"
"EA, as usual i ask, how did Funa-Iuta and Talagi go starting? I see Funa-Iuta played most if not all the game.
Also, is Shane-Tapau worth a consideration in future or just making numbers at the moment?"

He is on 300k at Knights, easily affordable for eels
Well he would want a big upgrade. $500k is well worth it for him.
Woof woof 🐶
Don't think we need another prop, but I'm a fan
Naaah. I really don't want anymore forwards, unless its an edge.
EDIT: let me add that this not because I don't rate him. I think he's actually quite a good player. But I think we have other priorities.
