Opinion Your shopping / auction list for 2024

[Dogtime]

2 out of Munster, S. Crichton and Haas. Cleary's on 1.3m so for a mid-bottom table team 1.5m isn't crazy money. I think we should be at least going in with a 1.3m offer. If the salary cap goes up significantly maybe we can go after all 3. I don't mind other options if they're quality/elite players but a lot of other options you can mention, e.g. Moses and Tapine are even more unlikely to change clubs imo.

1. Crichton
2. JAC
3. Schoupp
4. Alamoti
5. Kiraz
6. Burton
7. Munster
8. King
9. Mahoney
10. Sutton
11. Kikau
12. RFM
13. TPJ

14. Averillo
15. Pele
16. Patolo
17. Topine

When looking at that maybe Haas instead of Crichton would be the way to go. A bit light in the middle. Maybe we sign another average/decent prop like you said. I wouldn't be over the moon with Sipley tho.

Looks like the caps gonna be $15m. The only way we could afford Munster or Haas is if we have 10 players on minimum. So 10 raw development players, letting other fringe first graders all go.

I’d try poach Valynce Te Whare from dolphins.
It was His first year of league. Plays centre and is a machine.
11 tries, 15 line breaks 74 tackle busts in only 12 games. Averages 141 run metres.

In his first 2 games of league he scored 4 tries, 1 try assist, 6 line breaks and 27 tackle busts.

He looks good but won't leave dolphins

1. Jayden campbell
2. Kiraz
3. Alamoti
4. Skelton
5. Jac
6. Burton
7. Trindall
8. King
9. Mahoney
10. Haas
11. Bateman
12. Kikau
13. Jacko
14. Sullivan
15. Rfm
16. Ava
17. Thompson

I like this but no to Bateman - he’s not worth the 800k+ he’ll want and def not in the form he was in playing for Canberra.

 

[JAZZY92]

2024

1) Campbell
2) Toia
3) Kiraz
4) Skelton
5) JAC
6) Burton
7) S.Walker

8)TPJ
9) Mahoney
10) King
11) Kikau
12) RFM
13) Topine/Morrin

14) Topine/Morrin
15) Sutton
16) Stuckey
17) Jackson/Edwards

This lineup is actually realistic to target, it’s young but the talent is there. Maybe look for another meater eater forward also.

Didn't Tapine already re-sign with Canberra on 750-800k? Or are about to? We missed our chance to sign him last year when he was disgruntled about minutes.. Now he's finally getting huge minutes and is proving what a gun he is.

I Remember last year his wife blasted the raiders for dropping him. He came out with a bang this year. Best prop in the game currently

Toia I can't see as a winger. He's a fullback or 5/8 type of player.

Jacob Liddle has signed with the Dragons for 2023. Means Sullivan is all but coming to us. Last option was to play him at 9 and now thats gone with Liddle taking over for Macca.

Add Kade Dykes to the equation for Cronulla, they likely look to release Will Kennedy or Miller.

Exactly

 

[surfdog]

As some have already mentioned, Miller would do a very good job for us at 1 and not break the bank. Spend big on a 7 ( Hunt or Moses} that would have the compound effect of getting Burton's game going. Hope we don't end up with Haas as it would be stupid $ given he is already on 800 if not more

The Canberra Raiders can confirm that Joseph Tapine has re-signed with the club on a new deal, which will keep him in green until the end of the 2027 season

As much as I would have loved him in the blue and white... We can all breath a sigh of relief Roosters or Storm didn't get him.

He will be on a 5 year deal starting next year. By the time his contract expires he will retire. Options are going low!

Spewing. Though always was happening. Haas,
Fisher Harris are best two props in game with him.

No chance fisher Harris is going anywhere. We need a Fucking prop and I’d throw Thompsons $ right there with some third party to get him that mil mark he wants.

No one else in same galaxy as these 3 and we need a prop leader urgently.
