I would think Radders is assigned to secure players for next year, so it does look like we are giving him a new deal.
It is a constant balancing act, keeping players happy, perhaps already knowing they will be leaving next year, but still wanting 100% from them this season.
And I suppose if you do go down the Warrington route paying Greg Austin wheelbarrow loads of dosh, how do other players like Hill or Ratchie feel about the pay structure, as a team game their value is just as great as Austin or Widdop.
100% correct, even marquee players need another 12 on the field with them.

Sneyd wants Marquee money and after saturday again proves how important he is for us, I'd personally like to tie him down first with Faraimo, Westerman and Scott our priorities.

Interesting to see that article saying 5/6 from Australia. that would overhaul our quota positions unless of course it was an Englishman coming back from Aus.

Wouldn't go for Aubusson, but if we could keep everyone that we want to keep and could bring in Thompson, Fonua and a genuine top class prop it would give us as good a first choice 17 as anyone. Then it's a case of trying to get the depth and squad size right.
I can't imagine Fonua would come back though, at least not yet. He seems to be doing well at Wests. But we should be looking for a winger/centre of his calibre.
