Opinion Your shopping / auction list for 2024

[kmr07]

Top Targets from November 1:

Forwards: Spencer Leniu, Toafofoa Sipley, Hame Sele, David Klemmer, Royce Hunt, Nelson Asofa-Solomona, Bunty Afoa

Fullbacks: Latrell Mitchell, Daine Laurie, Stephen Crichton, Will Kennedy, Reuben Garrick

Halfbacks: Jayden Sullivan, Jackson Hastings, Mitchell Moses

Centres: Bronson Xerri, Brian Kelly, Herbie Farnworth

Wingers: Dominic Young, Sione Katoa, Brian To'o, Greg Marzhew

Out of the whole contract list, i've read these are the only good players without a club for 2024. Expect a massive off-season.

Some good quality there, except I don’t rate Garrick at all, especially as a fullback. To me, he’s just another Sam Perrett, does the job without any game breaking ability

I suspect if we signed Farnworth it'd be for fullback. I don't see why he'd leave Broncos to play the same position (if we offer more money more reason why it'd be fullback).

Do you just list half the nrl?

It is a little weird when people list 74 people for each position, we must have a really big changing room and a huge cap.

 

[capt obvious]

Dom young is a chance

I'm thinking now

For 2023 either Spencer Leniu (if Panthers will let him go early as an article suggested this week) or Klemmer. Klemmer would qualify for the 200K veteran allowance as he debuted with us in 2013. We need some experience in the forwards now.

For 2024 in priority we need a halfback, fullback and prop. Shedding Allan, Flanagan and Thompson should free up around 1.7M. We can get a bit more from releasing other off contract players above minimum wage from Paul Alamoti, Jake Averillo, Bailey Biondi-Odo, Braidon Burns, Joshua Cook, Andrew Davey, Jayden Okunbor, Chris Patolo, Franklin Pele, Hayze Perham, Ava Seumanufagai, Corey Waddell

HALFBACK: George Williams or Mitchell Moses are a must. I'd prefer Williams. He has the perfect short kicking game to compliment Burton. We desperately need the best 7 available ASAP. Can't wait to develop one.
FULLBACK: William Kennedy. Fast with a good running and passing game. He'd be cheaper than Crichton etc and more proven in his position. He'd be like Luke Patten. Not the top fullback but in around top 5-10
MIDDLE: Spencer Leniu - if we can't get him for 2023 or Toafofoa Sipley 120kg hard running prop from Manly

With the 3 purchases above hopefully we could also afford a winger so we can move Kiraz into the centres and get him more ball.
Sione Katoa would be a handy pick-up. Would love To'o though if we could afford him

2024 team

Why is anyone suggesting we sign sipley from manly, he has poor fitness and no lateral movement with the 6 agains he gets exposed massively for manly

 

[Kempsey Dog]

I don't care what we have to pay or do. I want us to steal Victor Radley off the Chooks for 2024.
9. Mahoney
13. Radley
14. Topine
Great balance and coverage there and Radley would help our spine a lot.

 

[Kempsey Dog]

Fullback: Will Kennedy
CTW: Harley Smith-Shields / Sione Katoa
Halves: Braydon Tindall / Jonah Pezet (can't see us getting a top line half, prefer young option)
Front Row: Joey Tapine / Spencer Leniu
Utility: Kobe Hetherington

* Tyson Frizzell has a player option for 2023, I don't know if he has taken up that option or not ? But I'd take him if he's willing to move into the middle third

Called it with Frizzell, be happy if we can land him to play middles

 

[Kempsey Dog]

Tyson is going to the Tigers

Did you know of this at the time or did you make it up lol

 

[bradyk]

F. At least we got Critta.

 

[CrittaMagic69]

Did you know of this at the time or did you make it up lol

There was meant to be a Klemmer/Tyson player swap idk
