Billy Smith, Tesi Niu, Wanker Blake

If those are the options, it's a no brainer

Re-sign Braidon Burns

Is he any good? I hear lots of hype but he can’t seem to find his way into the NRL team, even after Talakai has been dropped for poor form

He's a solid all rounder, I like him to Holmes with his skillset, just lacks the explosive speed and agility.

Weve literally got 2 maybe 3 proven backs for next year. Some on here carry on like we're stacked
My views on backs (inc 2 x spine)
JAC - SOO & International = well proven, quality player.
Crichton - SOO & International = well proven, quality player (what position he plays does not alter that).
Burton - SOO = proven, above average NRL player.
Kiraz - International = proven, above average NRL player.
Xerri = proven, above average NRL player, how long it takes him to get back to his form is a question, but not a big question, too much natural football ability that he won’t have forgotten.

That leaves 2 unproven;
Sexton - not proven but promising, or someone else?
The other centre - not proven and someone has to stand up between now and Round 1 2024, Alamoti, Skelton, Wilson or someone else?

That‘s 5 out of 7, not too bad a position to be in ~9 months before the season starts.

Always a Bulldog

Apparently Castleford tigers. I have NFI why an NRL club hasn't signed him.
Dunno if this is true but Shark Twitter say poor attitude problems that keep him out of firsts. Would be a better centre option than Talakai still tho

Don’t underestimate Samrani to challenge for a centre position in the top grade next year - yes he has been unlucky with injuries however he has the attributes to be a very good NRL centre.

Nasheed here,
We have really messed up letting Averillo go.
Why’s that? He’s no world beater but rather a flat track bully. It’s not like SuperCoach where you’ve wasted a trade. He’s very replaceable and I like to see him replaced with an outside back that revels in the tough stuff and doesn’t shy away from big contact.
