Looking forward and moving on

[Tommy Smith]

Manly will offer Keary close to 1million next year I reckon for 2017 onwards.

Hopefully they save that money for him by not signing Maloney.

[Spanner in the works]

From the end of 2017:

Out: SKD, Maloney, Aubusson, Tupou, Manu, Kennedy
In: Three of Brooks, Moylan, Tedesco, Widdop, Johnson, Matulino, McGuire, Vaughan or Woods, depending on how the development of our youngsters go.

I think we need to refresh the squad in 2 years time to extend our window.

I also think we need to look towards replacing an aging Maloney over the short-medium term - he'll be 30-31 by the end of 2017.
