Our Team Next Season

Many on this site overlooking Anderson for next year. The kid is a standout for wing or full back. By next year I suspect he will be our top winger
I don’t see what the big wrap on this kid is for.. his not even a standout in isp.I think people are disillusioned because he is rated to cliffy, or because the recent success of similar mould addo Carr. I hope I’m wrong though we could do with the next addo carr

He's done some top things in that grade but its difficult for a winger to impess when you have a pack of fowards that go backwards on attack. Give him a little space and he's off like a rocket. He's tough, gets involved, good aggressive defence, no problem under the high ball and returns the ball well.

His kick returns are top notch. Doesn't have the play making nous of a great fullback but can break a game wide open with good pace, power and tackle breaking ability. Could do very well being a winger to complement Tom + the added value as a replacement fullback.
 
Definitely need to keep Anderson he is a 1st Grader he should be replacing Uate next season.

5/8 Not sure who is available but i think Seizer would compliment DCE the Best.

As for Croker showed promise in his last game would only re-sign him as a back up for whoever is our 5/8 in 2019.

I actually think Brian Kelly could suprise at 5/8 but im unsure of his future at our club.. I think he may get a decent pay rise elsewhere so may not retain him and we may rather focus keeping Suli instead.

Lots of possibilities our best 17 is a very good side but we are probably 2-3 players short of being a genuine Premiership Threat.
 
So Trent Barrett CLEARLY stipulated that despite all the innuendo and gossip, we are WELL under the cap, and not one person on our roster would be going anywhere next season (unless of course - and this is my opinion - if there's a clear upgrade on a player).

Therefore, all the Gosi, Taupau, Walker drivel you hear from the media, is just B.S. and we should all ridicule any media person suggesting it.

We're not far off mixing it with the big boy's all we need is a bit of luck with injuries, a cheeky little half and another no-nonsense forward to keep the momentum going when Marty and Addin are rotated.
 
I’d be going for Trent Hodkinson and Alex Walmsley as my main marquee signings then bringing in Korbin Sims, Reuben Garrick, Joel Moon and possibly bringing back Buhrer at the right price.

Which would make the team

Tom
Taufua
Walker
Kelly
Suli/Garrick
DCE
Hodkinson
Taupau
Api
Walmsley
Thompson
Sironen
Jake

Sims
AFB
Tanginoa
Paseka

Fainu
Moon
Buhrer
Lane

I would have been happy to have Hodkinson as a back up for this year but I'm hoping we go for someone with a little more longevity if we have to wait until 2019.

Agree with your sentiment but should have emphasised that part of hodkinson coming for 19 would hopefully be getting him over early.

There’s also no one who fits the puzzle better on the market, closest option being foran.

I’d be happy with Hodko to fill the void for a year and hopefully wright or Metcalf are ready for 2020 if not better options will be available then and our cap situation should be better.

Organsing 5/8 and a prop and looking good. Sezer would be great but just about to resign with canberra. Brock lamb would be my pick. Young and talented and already playing that half back role and has a kicking game. Wouldn't be too expensive either.

Prop would be Shannon Boyd but asking too much. Maybe Sims
