These are players who I realistically think we could potentially get the next 2 years who would help us grow.

Kyle Flanagan
Jayden Brailey
Kurt Capewell
Briton Nikora
Esan Marsters
David Nofoaluma
Brodie Croft
Ryan Papenhuyzen
Adam Doueihi
Kotoni Staggs
Apisai Koroisau
Jordan Pereira

Which players do you think we should realistically target?

Flanagan to roosters
Nikora staying sharks
Papenhauzen staying storm

From the rest gimme marsters and Nofo Staggs and Korisau immediately.
Croft will only be good if he had a ball playing running 5/8 along side him. Lewis amd/or Cogger would be useless with him as half

Adam Douehi i dont rate much.

They're players that would complement an already established side. In a side like ours they'd just sink.
How could you make that assumption? There is no evidence of this.

Papenhuyzen and Croft are both off contract at the end of 2020. Munster and Hughes will still be under contract. I can't see the Storm keeping both or one of them wanting to be a bench player at that point.

We should sign Shane Flanagan and get him to bring his son over.

It's not an assumption. It's the simple fact young guys need experience around them to learn and blossom.

We need established stars.
These guys are experienced enough.

Name guys then that we should target.

Kyle going to roosters by June 30

Papenhauzen staying at storm .He is upgrading contract. They letting go of drinkwater.

Croft i wouldnt mind but as i said only if we sign a running half with great skills. Croft isnt your dominant type half back

A few such as Papenhuyzen and Nikora would be great but realistically can't see happening. Staggs, Koroisau or Brailey would all be solid pick ups.

NO chance Munster, Croft, Papenhuyzen and Hughes are all there in 2021.

No room in 2021 at the Roosters for Keary, Flanagan and Ben Walker's son who the Roosters have also signed.

I'd like any of these..

Flanagan
Jayden Brailey
Nikora
Croft
Papenhuyzen
Staggs

I'm really big on Jayden Brailey.
I think we already have enough Second Row Forwards so maybe Nikora as a Centre, not sure how much he's played there tho.
It looks like Papenhuyzen has the most X-factor out of the players mentioned on that list.

If I could have one it would be Papenhuyzen hands down, he is electric. I don't think the Storm are silly enough to let hin slip from their fingers though.

Out of the rest Brailey excites me the most.

We are in need of experience though so would be targetting some established roll players as opposed to too many young guns in the short-term

A good number 9 will go a long way to fixing a lot of our problems. I hope we get it right
