All players bar Evans are available. Salisi Fa'inga has been a mainstay in Wenty's second row all season. He has literally dropped off the planet. What's doing?
Sign elsewhere? He is. Was a keeper.

Part of the Wests Tigers training squad, although hasnt been signed yet
With the club's 2020 Development players and fellow youngsters returning to pre-season training today, Wests Tigers can also confirm several new faces will feature as part of a wider squad that will be in operation up until the Christmas break.
Headlining the list is Brad Abbey — who joins the club from Canberra having played 13 first-grade games in his career — and Intrust Super Premiership forward Joseph Ratuvakacereivalu, who recently made his international debut for Fiji.
Joining the pair at training are a number of exciting young talents including Ray Jankovic, Austin Dias, Salesi Fainga’a, Tyrone Faulkner, Jordin Lieu, Joseph Taipari and Lachlan Talau — the brother of NRL squad member Tommy.
The remaining half of Wests Tigers training squad will return from their break in the next few weeks as the side ramps up their preparations for season 2020.
"We certainly have been poor in recruitment for many many years. I certainly don't have a wrap on the current R &R committee . But it is such a tough environment . Our salary cap turmoil has our club hyper vigilant to auditing, compliance ,…"
"I think the comparison to big Ben Smith is a good one the penguin was under rated as a centre and backrower injuries cost him a couple of seasons. Samrani is pretty similar "
"It's a good point FM. I often think about a stat from the old NRL Under 20s comp (Toyota cup?). Only 5% of players in that comp went on to play more than 50 NRL games. Early hype is no guarantee of a long NRL career."
