500k - What are we going to use it on?

[CCC]

I agree we will upgrade Burton and go for Asiata. Gamble on Cook and hope BBO can develop (he is quick /suits the new rules) we just have to beg somebody to call for the ball on the 5th and put in a decent kick…..[emoji23]

 

[TalDog]

I reckon a 9 is more important. We might be able to get by in the halves with Burton there but we’re going nowhere with JMK at hooker, unless the Cook kid is any good.

Our cook is from wish

 

[TalDog]

Ash Taylor with some change

 

[2144superman]

Pearce isn't in the Knights plans as they will move Ponga into the #6 and Clifford into the #7 with ex Dragons half Clune a backup for origin and any injuries.

 

[chisdog]

Bribe refs.

Need more than that!

 

[rainman]

Too Soon? So what's the guesses on the move we will make now with the spare 500k?

My mortgage

 

[chisdog]

Soundbars

I know somebody who can get them cheap

 

[Roger the alien]

November is when we need to go shopping for 2023 so I expect a couple more moves to free up cap space before then.

 

[Abdul..]

Lock in Burton long-term.

 

[boggie23]

We need some outside backs ASAP. What’s Zac Lomax up to

 

[billy beane]

I think we'll upgrade Burton.. even before he plays a game. The rest will go towards depth player/s unless we can offload a couple more and bring in some big guns

Why ???

 

[craigo]

They won’t get anyone. And we’ll be stuck with the same flogs we had this year except Lewis. Burton will have the weight of the world on his shoulders

 

[B-Train]

I must be one of the few who doesn't want Pearce. I hope they're patient with the cap space and wait to see the fallout of who's available once a few coaches are sacked and players are moved on in the next few months.

 

[bulldogsmyte]

Got to be Pearce. I know he's injury prone but maybe we get lucky and he lasts the year (like Foz did at manly). We need an experienced playmaker to guide the team around while Burton and BBO develop and unfortunately he's the best option available

Brooks - no fucking way. Benji cant play 80 min every week

Benji makes more sense to me. Yes he can't play 80 but he offer far more in attack than Pearce of crap and Avo/BO can learn off him and play as #14 to come on when Benji takes a breather. There's no high quality long term HB on the market next year.

Same here. I don't want Pearce either. He's not the answer to our HB problems.

I'm with you on this one B-Train.

Zac signed with the dragqueens for 5 years

 

[Bulldog1966]

I'm not fussed on him either O'brien said he isnt going anywhere, unsure if thats bs or gospel speak...

There's been noise around Pearce (leaving) for like 2 years now.

 

[2012]

If storm win the comp this year smith won’t come, he will go for the 3peat
