Been a great signing but this season is one too far for me. Always been a slow starter to the seasons but normally picks up form as the pitches harden, Easter onwards. Not doing it at the moment, even on a reduced deal, with him taking a quota spot I wouldn’t resign him.

I agree and I'd also question the signing of talanoa who will have spent much of the season injured by October. Time for us to freshen the squad up IMO
Even with arrival of Westerman think we still need to freshen up the pack so we can start dominating some of the other top teams up front. Someone like Josh Jones and a big prop from somewhere. Not sure the kid from London is ready to match up against the likes of Walmsley or Hill on a weekly basis. How Gareth can create some cap space will be interesting ...don't think Watts, Washbrook and prob Abdul will be enough cap. Maybe Mini or Manu along with Turgut! Would declaring Kelly as a marquee signing help (as don't fully understand this rule)?

If you want to build a pack to dominate the top teams then getting rid of Manu isn't the way. We could afford to lose Mini I think, he's losing his effectiveness this season, but Manu is still such a huge part of what makes our pack so big and strong.

I agree it’s mini we need to be upgrading on for next season . Need players like Manu , but to replace mini we need a running back rower who breaks tackles and scores try’s . Someone like whitehead or currie type we need . Who though is another question!
tough recruitment times atm when we are up against the nrl, throw in the toronto team who aren't short of a penny either could explain why we are offering mini a new contract
