If we can’t land B Smith or Clarke, we should look at this kid in the Tigers system Jake Simpkin, asks a lot of questions in attack, smart and has some pace, only 19... looks a talent.

Good suggestion! I've mentioned Simpkin recently too. I have no idea why Madge plays not only Liddle but Mbye also ahead of him as well when he's the best junior hooker around at the moment.

Plus he seemed impressive in the trials. Hopefully he can be lured away. It would be typical of the Tigers to lose him.

Watching NSW cup today and knew I'd see his name mentioned on the forum somewhere. But yes I agree he's good

I am surprised that Simpkins is not getting a run considering that puff piece written on him by the Telegraph with the undoubted contribution of the Tigers club

Doubt Tigers would let him go. Liddle is a fill in. Simpkin looks like their long term hooker.

Does anyone know if Harry Grant’s 2022 contract is a player option?

surely we would dangle a lucrative carrot if that’s the case, one that couldn’t be refused and if that didn’t pan out, B Smith is next followed by Clarke ... we can’t afford another gap year for a #9

"Queenslanders Cameron Munster (signed until 2023) and Grant (mutual option for 2023) have both been publicly touted as marquee signing targets by Brisbane Jets spokesman Nick Livermore.

The breakout 2020 campaigns of Grant and Papenhuyzen (signed until 2022) has both in line for sizeable upgrades from their current contracts, with Storm officials discussing long-term offers internally".
