Yep, clearing the decks and creating as much cap space for more incomings. I feel he won’t be the last departure announced within the next couple of weeks.

I have seen a few comments on the signings not being the pack leader we need, I am not sure many of those are available at the level of quality we need. Before a particular poster says pangai jnr - he isn’t a pack leader. He is often suspended, he gave up the game once before, he is potentially unbelievable but it’s mainly potential.
As a few have said I’d feel very happy to trade sangare for Byrne. I also wouldn’t be overly sad to see lisone leave for Byrne and to bring in an NRL back rower.
Conner as utility, Jack out on loan, mom to leave with a larger NRL back to come in would be very nice.
Only lingering question is who is going to do the kicking. The drop down to whoever replaces Martin feels large. Conner can’t kick every goal if he isn’t on the pitch all the time
Blease said on the pod tonight kicking isn’t a ‘headache’ for them but they are looking at it. He was quite coy but there’s obviously going to be be some movement in the squad, Ruan is reported as left tonight.

Justin Sangare and Paul Momirovski for me, maybe Toby Warren as it hasn’t gone to plan for him.

I'd have Littlewood down as back row rotation, giving us McDonnell and Bentley starting, then Gannon and Littlewood competing. As others have said Jenkins and O'Connor can also play there too in emergencies.
I'd still like to see Connor for utility value and Siva replace Mom and then we are in good shape. If we can offload Sangare and bring in Byrne that would also be good business.
If Connor does come, we need to send Jack out for a full season loan where he plays every week. Somewhere like Featherstone or Halifax (assuming they recover financially)would be good.
It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.

This is what I've got for player positions next season, I've added Jake Connor because the deal is 99% done. I can only see Momirovski or Sangare being moved on now from the rest of our contracted players as they we're on the list I was given last month however I can only see Sangare leaving if we are able to find a replacement such as Liam Byrne etc like other have said, Brad Arthur wants a big mobile back to select from so with the two new props announced yesterday Sangare is still in Arthur's thoughts but he would be 5th/6th choice you'd imagine now. If Momirovski leaves hopefully it means the Sivo deal is happening and then I'd imagine Handley could be moving to centre or Jake Connor could even start there.
