Packer....no way..
Stockwell.. a good young prop, but don't we already have enough of those on our books?...... Pass.
Very happy if Big Willie has signed. I haven't been a fan, I just think he is the right kind of player, for the club in 2015. You need that experience. Lets hope he still has some mongrel left.
I Really think it's important for the club that Epi lady is still with us. The last couple of years, we have let go of that experienced prop from reserves.
Lets not forget he's played for the kiwi's in the past. He is an experienced NRL prop similar to Big Willie, who looked way out of condition and way off the pace when he came to us this year.. He improved throughout the season and should have got a start in the A's at the end for mine. Add a preseason with Donny, and I think epi with his size is a better Prop than anything we could pick up.
My biggest wish is Trent Merrin. Choc plays as a middle prop, where most 13's do on the field. Choc probably has to be let free, to be any chance, of affording Merrin. I am happy with that. Merrin is worth every cent of the reported $600k choc would be paid for 2015. And lets face it, his girl does needs a good beach to surf.
The Big players win the Big games. Merrin would change the dynamic of the forward pack Massively. If we got him in place of choc, IMO we are actually looking a much better side then we were for 2014.
