Looking at the players ooc this year, who would you like to retain, who would you let go and replace them with who.

Here is mine

Bureta Faraimo - keep

Fetuli Talanoa - go, Joe burguess replacement

Marc Sneyd - keep, however I think he will leave. Hastings replacement

Dean Hadley - keep

Mark Minichiello - go. Savelio replacement

Josh Bowden - keep

Chris Green - go. Fafita replacement

Danny Washbrook - go. Me replacement with Hadley and westetman

Sika Manu - go. Kenny Edwards

Jez Litten - keep

Mickey Paea - go. Pauli Pauli replacement

Jack Logan - go. No replacement

Cameron Scott - keep

Jack Sanderson - undecided

Joe Westerman - keep

Agree with a all of them but think your being a bit ambitious with the replacements when our chairman is tightening the purse strings, we need to recruit big but go a feeling with will go with run of the mill replacements.

Kelly's going back home by all accounts.

Hastings going home also so he won’t be signed

Edwards
Pauli Pauli
Fifita

Should all be targets. One plus an NRL forward to replace Manu and Paea.

Can't see us getting Burgess, but if stays I'd make a move for Marshall or Davies

Surely should be looking at Fifita but reckon most teams will . The kind of forward we need

Agree with all them but I can’t see us getting Fifita or Pauli Pauli, Wakefield seem to be a really tight group by all accounts.

I’d be surprised if we didn’t go in for Joel Thompson to replace Manu.

Fiifita and Hastings are out of contract end of season

Imagine Hastings and Connor as our halfbacks

Second row of fifties, savelio and Hadley/lane

Add in two decent props and we d have the makings of a good team

Connor will deffo be half back next year by all accounts.

Pearson has said he’s undecided whether it’s better going with a bigger squad or a smaller squad with higher earners (possibly with a marquee player)

Personally don’t think the bigger squad concept will work.
Not when, as now, we have injuries but the squad players aren’t getting picked.

Last years recruitment/ retention was poor, and we have an opportunity to put some of it right with so many players out of contract.

Just need to get Motu Tony back on a consultancy!

The worry is , we l be talking to players now in regards to next season, and with the rumoured purse strings tightening I don’t think we l fork out a salary for a recruitment specialist
