One of the issues the club definitely needs to look at is the lack of middle and edge forwards. Not sure what players Parra could target but I know Josh Papali has been told he won't be offered a contract for next season. Should parra target 1-2 older forwards and a few younger ones ? Garner + Papalli would be cheap experienced forwards, do we have enough young forwards to mix in ?

I'd say fast mobile guys in the Williams mould.
Another two like him and we are set in the forwards.
In the backs we need a speedy center plus a running 5/8th who can tackle and kick (Smith).
Hamish Stewart, Dragons
Luron Patea, Panthers
I don't know what their contract status is, but 2 very good young forwards
Luron Patea contract untill 2027
Hamish Stewart contract untill 2026 with a PO for 2027
Luke Garner also looks likely to be joining Parra
We also need to find a player that can start the game at 9 and than move into the forward rotation. I like Ryley off the bench coming on around the 20th minute mark and than finishing the game. Hands & Lussick are both specialist 9 and hardly FG standards.
