With all the talk that Flanagan won't realese him early unless he gets a good player. Who would you let go?
Me personally I would let Paulo, Sivo or Matterson go fo him. Paulo just seems to be running in cruise control these days, doesn't have the same effect he once did.
Lomax would be a great pick up and needed for our backline, we must go hard for him.

What about Lane. His start to the season this year has been pretty ordinary. Suprised he hasn't had a mention in this conversation.
I don't think flanno would swap him. Lane is cooked with injuries or confidence or something. He hasn't been himself for ages.
O'fahengaue
Thought he was better off bench last week but nowhere near as good as Junior off bench . We would not miss him
If we had to trade ( and I don't think we do) Ofa would be my choice. Maybe Matterson but he's still got some value to add from the bench and an edge.
Only two fullbacks in the game atm I would move gutho for, that's move position and not trade.
Dylan Edwards or Reece Welsh.
No way would you trade him. Especially for a centre when we don't have a great back up fullback in waiting 😂
I'm a bit concerned about gutho I think he might be cooked physically, he has been putting his body on the line for so long now it looks like his body is starting to break down. A move from fullback might not be too far away, if we miss out on lomax I would consider moving gutho to centre next year, just need to make sure we have a decent fullback to replace him at the back.
Iongi from Panthers is who I would be looking at. He is stuck behind Edwards. Defensively he is great and offers more speed and agility than Gutho in attack. The only downside would be that Talagi future to FG would be blocked for a while.
Gutho is playing the best football of his career, just because he looks like an old man, doesn't mean he's busted.
There are bigger things to worry about and Talagi is far from a superstar, he needs to be much faster and more agile to get anywhere near his peers, the West's youngster being a prime example. Special players are just that. I would not compare him with Dylan at the same stage of their development.
Hahaha pops, leave the old men alone EA. Gutho so far this year has been on fire, he has cut out the silly errors and knows when to shine in but it's early days. They all looked busted against the tigers, gutho was the only one with hopegood who needs to start that had a dig.
You just can't pick any player to swap with as they have to agree. Don't see any first grader wanting to play for dragons. Maybe Ethan Sanders be good option he young talented and plays position of importantce.
