Why did we let go of the real Corey Waddell just to sign his lookalike in Drew Hutchison?

SST rejecting our stupid 500k a season two year deal is a blessing. The guy is done as a player. So glad it looks like that isn’t happening. These signings are mid asf I can’t lie

welcome to the bulldogs, those 4 should hopefully add some starch to the team

I don't mind the Turpin signing. He's a reliable backup and a great defender.. He'd cost nothing..

Mann is a solid, versatile player if he can stay healthy.. Hutchinson I'm not so sure on but he could be handy in a few positions off the bench. Both of those wouldn't cost much either.

Hope Fasmausili can be a decent prop for us. Other than that utilities for days

Don't we have Salmon for the versatile bench role?

Most of the signings bar Curran/Crichton, have been either depth or bench. No one else besides those two are in the starting 13.

So our big prop signing is a player that has played 43 games over 5 years..... Thats a little underwhelming. Fingers crossed hopefully one of the Saifiti brothers come across or we will be softer in the middle then we were this season if that is even possible. I rate Tanner, but he isnt more then a bench player, same as King and Hughes. No alphadog to be seen......

Whilst you may be right..so is your attitude about our club/team/Gus/and coach too I think? :tearsofjoy:
I know what Gus is doing and understand why he's doing it, I just don't fully agree with it. For us fans it's been 7 years of shit and countless $$$ invested into the club, for Gus however it has been a couple of years and countless $$$ invested into him. Gus is milking our fans loyalty for all it's worth and this shit better be all worth it come 25/26.

Turpin back-up 9, will play NSW cup.
Faamausili bench middle/NSW cup.
Mann bench middle - lock/hooker cover.
Hutchison puts pressure on Sexton (would start for me).

Salmon can play same role he did at Panther, impact edge player to spell Kiks if needed. Mann has played both lock and hooker at Knight so can cover both here (mainly interchange lock). We have a few options at least.
