Gagai?

I don't think it's any of the ones you mentioned
Forgot he was off contract but he isn't really a specialist fullback and hasn't exactly killed it when he played there. Don't think we need to sign him for centre at this stage either. This would be our likely starting 13 next season if i'm thinking like Des.

1. Hoppa/Bmoz
2. Montoya/Holland
3. Lee
4. Jmoz
5. Bmoz/Montoya
6. Mbye/Foran
7. Foran/Frawley
8. Woods/Tolman
9. Lichaa/Mbye
10. Graham/Tolman
11. Jackson
12. Elliott/RFM
13. Klemmer

The potential areas for a big signing would be fullback and hooker. Knowing how Des want his hookers to play then i doubt we would go after a hooker like Peats so it has to be a fullback if we are making another big signing. Or Des wants another prop.. lol

Opinion on Dugan and gagai but have heard that cronk is most likely retiring
Fair enough. But then again, we all thought that our club wouldn't pay $900K for Woods either.
I think that if we have got Foran, we won't be able to afford Cronk unless the club is creating a master stroke by organizing some position within the club post his career.

How do you know we did pay $900k?

happy to translate for you - foran is a head case. the media don't know their elbow from their asshole. hope nobody wasted money buying their garbage
True but Dugan was a knob as well but has knuckles down and is an asset... If he can turn his life around he could do great things for our side.. Time will tell..

I'm sick of this drama if foran has a really close bond with Hasler he would of signed by now didn't he reject us like 2 times now? I bet there is something about Hasler that foran does not like

I'm 128.4% sure that it was in the paper, on TV, on the radio and most importantly on TK.
Mate, are you doubting me? :tonguewink:
Sadly I have a niggling doubt. Now had you been 135% sure I would've rolled.....

You could be on the money. After they announced Woods to Dogs and Tedesco to Rorters, the TAB had us as 2nd favourites to win it after the Rorters.
Hmmmm, didn't see the Eels go up after they confirmed Moses to Parra in 2018. Think they went further south in the betting. :yum:

Confirmed leaving to Sydney (didn't say which club) on Official warriors website. Great signing if he ends up with us. If we can manage to get a good FB for next year we will be hard to beat.

The Warriors have confirmed star five-eighth Kieran Foran will leave the club at the end of the season to return to Sydney.

"It has been an incredibly tough decision to make but it has reached the point where I had to make a call and I've done that today," Foran told warriors.kiwi.

"I love it so much here at this club and I have so many people to thank for helping me to get my life and my football career back on track.

"I really wanted to find a way of staying and spending more time here because it's so good being around the boys and the people here. Every day I have a smile on my face when I come to training.

"But, in the end, it came down to my kids and what's best for them. I need to be back in Sydney to be closer to them.

"Before I do there's plenty to do here. I want to finish here as well as I possibly can. We can do something this year and I want to play my part in that."

Warriors managing director Jim Doyle said he could understand Foran's decision.

"Of course, we would have liked Kieran to stay longer and we looked at ways of making that possible," Doyle said.

"I know how much he likes it here and how much he wanted to extend his time but his kids' welfare is paramount. We support him in what he has decided to do and wish him all the best.

"For us, it has been great to see how far he has come getting his life back in order and now being in a position to be able to help the team on the field. He wants to finish the season strongly."

Knowing our club, they will wait for the cooling off period.
Announcement is imminent within 48 days.
