Sea Eagles 2024 Squad

6 spots open I reckon Lodge, Matterson will get 2, also Blacktown Workers pair of Jake Toby and Clayton (can’t think of last name) would be a chance to get another.

Think could more movement on top 24 with a couple potentially leaving eg Zac Fulton, Keppie.
 
With Tuipolotu out with an MCL there is no better time to use our compo on a player. Bring in Kayal Iro now.. and get him cheaper next year with the front up payment of the compo money. Payment in advance so to speak
 
I'd like to see this side next year:
Tom T
Saab
Koula
Garrick
Paulo

Brooks
DCE

Paseka
Croker
Jake T
Olakau'atu
Ben T
Schuster

Humphries (stint at 9)
Aloiai
Bullemor
Tuilagi

This is a faster team across the field.
No Lodge?
 
I think our backline is now set but I'd add Kayal Iro to cover fullback/centre and fight with Paulo for the wing spot.

In an ideal world, I would look at releasing these players from the pack and recruiting elsewhere. Aloiai, Keppie, Boyle, Fulton, Tuilagi, Lawton, maybe even bullemor if needed. Along with extending Lodge, I'd be looking at two good puppies to add to the pack. A Josh Curran, Ryan Matterson type or both. Or a Wiremu Greig type and move jurbo back to lock.

It would change the dynamic of the pack below but instead could look at Watson to start at lock and play a bit of hooker also.

8.TRBOJEVIC
9.CROKER
10.LODGE
11.OLAKAU'ATU
12.
13.

14.GCKT
15.PASEKA
16.SCHUSTER
17.BULLEMOR / SIPLEY
 
If we don't sign Lodge, someone needs to lose their job.

We don't have an enforcer like him and every team needs one. Tent should be forced to watch him and learn. Because he would be at least his equal if he was mean enough.

And it's time to promote those that have been waiting patiently if we truly believe they have what it takes to make an impact. Humphries and Gordy especially.
 
Almost the same starting line up as @LeonardCohen but a different bench.

Tom T
Saab
Koula
Garrick
Paulo

Brooks
DCE

Lodge
Croker
Jake T
Olakau'atu
Ben T
Schuster

Gordie CKT
Paseka
Bullemor
Parker (transition to backrower and covers backs)

Maybe it's just me.. but that pack looks soft. Where are the metres coming from? Burbo has a ball carry like Jake. And shoey... shoey won't do the tough stuff
 
I think we are stuck with Josh A unless we want to fund him to another club.

Tuilagi hasn’t been too bad recently.

Keppie is average

Sipley , not much better than Keppie

Woods , can fill a gap on the min $$

Bullemor , deserves a new contract but not a huge one.

Would love to pick up a couple of good forwards , in addition to Lodge , a prop being 1.

Souths really need an older more experienced middle forward next year. They have no cap these days. Put the feelers out there

Yes it appears we haven't used the turbo compo money so this would be good business for the future!
