Makes sense if we have the dollars. Corey oats would be good but keep him on the wing, Rhyse Martin yes to resigning and Havilli why not if we can get rid of Lichaa. Also go hard for Jennings. Don't know about Edrick lee or Coote.

Its a No from me for Coote, just similar players we've signed that wont deliver. And wont be worth the price tag.

Dib was doing the brown bags, it was just a shame our recruitment was a fucking shamble so we where giving the bags to duds
If the fat fuck was doing brown paper bags we wouldnt have salary cap issues

The only thing that fat fuck was doing, was destroying the club

He was 100 percent doing brown bags !! And fucked the club in the process. Dib was paying Woods under the table which got him over here. Tigers offered the same on the books money as we did but not the brown bag. Woods is cut now cause he know isn’t getting the extra $$ and could of stayed at the tigers

I thought oats would Be a handy pick up as well considering he is leaving his options open.

Havili I thought was one of the form hookers.. he's a goer.. obviously Hodgson is better but Havili will only improve

Summary of this FARTicle....

Fullback - Recruit Lachlan Coote.
Halves - Recruit Elgey.
Hooker - Move Lichaa on and recruit Silvia Havili.
Forwards - Sign Corey Oates with Eastwood/Woods money, and Re-Sign Rhyse Martin.
Backs - Sign Edrick Lee and Robert Jennings.

Nice train of thought except nobody wants Foran or Lichaa. Woods there's a sticking issue too, and he's likely to provide more value once a quality fullback comes along (and players learn his strengths).

Coote is decent but starting to show signs of injury and hasn't been in the best form. But he IS an established fullback and for a 1-2 year contract might be what we need (until we can get some good juniors coming through).
Elgey is as injury prone as Foran.
Havili is okay, but nght and day compared to Hodgson (and this showed last week).
Oates is decent but won't come cheap. Martin has had a few shockers of late but should be retained.
Lee and Jennings are worth a look because we desperately need pace on the edges. Either that or sign Morris brothers for another say 2 years (like Coote) and wait for juniors to come through.

A lot of who we can afford to chase for next year will depend on who we manage to offload or not resign. I will have big name signing dreams when i know we have cap space to make it happen.
