High quality fullback, off contract. Anyone else think he'd be a good option? As much as I think Tom is a fullback and will play the majority of his career in that spot, it's obvious that he struggles with the fundamentals of the role. I would propose we sign Lachlan Coote to come play fullback for 2 or 3 years to help teach Tom but also make our side a better one. Coote plays fullback, does the exact role for us that he has at North Queensland, be the second kicker for our 7, do some organsing and play like a second 5/8 but with a very good kicking game. Tom moves to centre in defence, but in attack is given a license to roam, go anywhere on the field he wants. With Coote in the side Daly has another experienced playmaker to hold the side together meaning he doesn't have to shy away from taking opportunities just because he has to be around for last tackle. Surely we could afford Coote with all the players leaving and he would only want maximum of 500k. In the 6 depending on how the cap is after purchasing Coote I'd go after just a solid 6, someone who can do the job required like Hodkinson, Lamb or Jacks. If we can't pick up a 6 from outside the club then give the spot to T Wright. With Coote at 1 a running 6 becomes an option again.
1 Coote
2 Taufua
3 Walker
4 T Trbojevic
5 Kelly/Suli
6 Hodkinson/Lamb/Jacks/T Wright
7 Cherry-Evans
Anyway that's just a though on what I would do.
