Widdop is signed for 2016 i think.
Mate given I was at the GF he played in I'm well aware of the position he played , it was simply a throw away comment!

Yes yes and des was also signed when he decided to join the dawgs, but got an early release. 🙂

A rumour out of the nations capital is that Manly have been in contact with Cornish and McCrone. Interesting.
Utility Player
Bencher
No Des was sacked after anouncing he would be off to the Dogs in 2013
If Lyon at 6 is our best bet then we are in trouble.
Yes he played 5/8 for us in season '08 but that was freakin 7 years ago! Not to mention he played along side Orford who was the obvious dominate and experienced playmaker who called the shots, killer simply played a supporting role to take a lil pressure off Orford.
I remember he played a game at 5/8 for us last year and looked soooo uncomfortable. I think we need to let go off this idea Killer can play 5/8 anymore, not at this stage of his career.
Just saying...

I think someone like Mitch Cornish might be someone to look at. I remember watching him through the 20s thinking this blokes going to be a gun, He hasnt had the best season thus far but he def has the potential to be a good half.
Play him on that right side with someone like Feleti or Buhrer as another ball playing option OR an edge forward like a T-rex/Tamaloumo(spelling?) who can either isolate a smaller opposition player or suck in defence and create an overlap.
Thoughts?

Could be good, although you would need to partner him with an experienced half (not Lyon IMO).
He sounds all right.....Funny how the Bronco's are trying to play him of the bench as a back up hooker when he was a 5/8 - fullback. And as you said it would still leave us short of a quality halfback, hopefully the club have a back up plan but the pickings are looking pretty slim from where I'm standing.
Our best options, DCE staying, Malony and Widdop getting released are all highly unlikely
The only other guy of their quality is Carney, who would need to pull his head in, secure a release and get registered by the NRL
From there everyone is a risk, the best of which i believe would be
Hastings - would have to secure a release and apparently has a ego
Myler - Haven't seen him play but has good pedigree, but SL half to NRL half........big step
Cornish - Has potential but Ricky cant manage halves, question is has Ricky ruined him
Mid level for mine
Townsend - Actually a pretty good player, would do a job but never going to rise to anything above city/country level
Nikomoras - Talented, but steering a team around the park
Travers & Pearsell - I like what i see and think they could be our future but next season would be too soon, people compare to DCE and Foz on 2011 but Foz had played plenty and DCE just come of a big year in QLD cup
Zach Docker Clay - Junior Kiwis half and a chance to stick it to Parra
Worst options
Sandow - Not as bad as Hodkinson
Hodkinson - Worse option than Sandow

Sorry, I'm an old fart, not used to putting lol or smiley faces in my comments, Just trying to be light hearted in the low times. I was there too, under the Bradman stand.
