Im pretty sure Aukafolau & Morris signed deals with Wentworthville for next year & Niukore isn't leaving but no announcement has been made about him staying so who knows. So it's just Hayne who's future is unknown for now.

In a normal off season, the signings of Lane Ferguson and Jnr would count as an above average achievement - however, we are that far behind most teams particularly in our forward pack that we are still in need of another major cleanout.

This all comes down to roster mismanagement caused by brad arthur, that will take years to rebuild.

Go ba

  What’s even worse is this is after picking up the spoon.

Good acquisitions, if we can hang onto Hayne and get another middle forward Id be a lot happier
Ivan Drago October 31, 2018 at 4:07pm

We still need to resign Hayne, plus an experienced and proven number 9 and 2 representative forwards to be competive.We have lost 5 or 6 forwards from last year who are we replacing them with.
