Who should we sign?

Daniel Tupou still unsigned for next year.
3 tries in two games.*
Right price signing.

I don't like him but he's a food player and twice as good as Jorge. we need a good winger a forward or two and a backrower. woods. Nelson something at storm. Kane Evans. tupou. maybe whare.
 
Bird would walk into any team in the comp. Would love to see in in our jumper. He can play centre, 5/8, fullback and even back row. Im sure we will fit him in somewhere if he ever signed with us. I don't think Bozo cares who is contracted or not. Someone would make way.
well if he did come I'd have him at center instead of Kelly. imagine walker and bird. but I think he will be a shark for life but money talks so . Daniel tupou is off contract and we need a winger Jorge is pathetic Imo. what you think of Kane Evans? I'd get rid of winterstein for Evans
 
he wouldnt fulfil a position we need but lolohea would be massive. the bloke is a star and has unreal talent, would say more raw talent then any of our backs bar turbo.

definitely forwards. props at that. and maybe a second rower. would enjoy to pick up a star prop / second rower and then go for value for money.
graham would be amazing, could fit the glenn stewart role in his own way.
prop wise, would like any of the following; evans, gubb, kaufusi maybe?, matulino, ofahengaue would be a great signing and he would step up for starting time, paasi and semanufegai.

woods is a softy, he can stay clear.

possibly a winger but i would like to see tom wright given a crack there in the future.
 
I have doubts about Lolohea, I don't know if he has the drive and focus to go to the next level. He made it to first grade with natural talent but doesn't seem to have progressed and hasn't even nailed down a spot in a very patchy Warriors team.
 
I would like to see:

Winger (replace Jorge)
Two Props (Felise Kaufusi a priority as one of them)
Backrower (Wade Graham)

And maybe 1 or 2 impact bench forwards. Not really that many stars off contract in my opinion better off saving money for next season but I'd buy Felise Kaufusi and Wade Graham.
 
Shop at Penrith -
2 young forwards - Kikau top young monster prop and the aggressive Akauloa

I would like to see Bird at 5/8. I think that would be his best position with his hands on the ball. The more involved he is the better, he has the skill and toughness. I would keep Kelly as he is developing into a fine centre. I know what u mean about Jorge but for some reason i really like him. Yes he has question marks over the hight ball but now Uate is in the side everyone kick to him so Jorge doesn't have to worry anymore 🙂 But his strength/ power is why he is in the team. Most wingers get manhandled over the side line where Jorge scores a try. His hit up are massive of us reminding me of John Hoppa back in the day early in sets. He is really like having another forward in the team. Not over the moon about Evens but is still young and I'm sure will develop into a starting prop. If it was me i would spend up on a top line back rower and not a battering ram prop.
 
Isn't

Evans a 2nd rower? I disagree with bird he can't pass for **** but he could get better he is very talented but more like Dugan though he can offload that's why I'd have him in centers. Moses would be a good 6 for us but don't see it. As for Jorge I loved him in 2013 he has declined so badly for me that I think he belongs in reserve grade. His runs aren't that good anymore. remember when be used to run straight through. He and matai were a force

isn't Evans a 2nd rower? maybe not

D - Tupou to replace George
Woods/Kaufusi - although should never pay over for props IMO
Nelson Asofa Solomona (since Graham has re signed with Sharks)
 
Tom Opacic. I liked the look of that kid, before he got hurt last year! Big, fast, dynamic & young. He'd be cheap too, hopefully he stays off the radar. Somebody get on the blower to bozo....now!

Penrith have 6 top line three quarters. Won't be able to afford to keep all next year so I would take any one of them. Also one of their young props and one of Canberra's big forwards. We will have money to spend and adding those three to our current squad - maybe less Myles, Brown and Lawrence (going great but does he have another year?) if offered money elsewhere, would see us as a top 4 team.

2 tom wrights. Just watched one of them in Holden cup hope the other ones the answer cause this guy ain't
 
firstly i would be looking at a secondrower about to hit it big.

Throw a bit of cash at this guy called Billy Bainbridge.

Second find a hooker who can pass (if Hastings doesn't turn into a hooker) and get api onto the bench to tear teams a new one when tired.

But this is all next year speak so we could have 15 more players cash as well
Fluffy. A good young signing hooker wise could be brailys younger brother at Cronulla .
