Josh Mansour

[Johnny Tobin]

Strong rumour he is coming on board next season.

With Fergo we would have the two worst defensive backs in the game.

Mansour Keary Gordon

Slim pickings.

[Lydon]

If we nab those 3 for next year we are definetly back in the mix!

[Johnny Tobin]

For the spoon?

[fletch]

I don't get our recruitment plan we already have Toups/Fergo/SKD who are better wingers than centres why do we need Mansour as well, allocation of cap resources is totally off.

[Johnny Tobin]

It's poor/unlucky timing that we desperately need some players and there's nothing out there.

Top 8 JT..
You were claiming yesterday our current team is a Top 8 team..
Based on that theory if you replace Keary with Matterson at 6,Mansour with Tupoo and Gordon in the backline as our kicker things don't look half bad..

[Johnny Tobin]

I'm being a smart arse. They would be a top eight side for sure. But not top two.

Id love to see Connor Watson have a go at 5/8, he goes all day has speed and the smarts... Young though...

so you front load contracts and play kids until the right target becomes available, no point signing players for the sake of it.

I'm happy with that. Manu keeping them honest.

Now we need a ball-playing edge forward to replace Guerra and a quality stand off.

I'd like this too if matto can't crack it there, although we need that utility for friend.

I'm happy with Gordon and Mansour, but Keary worries me, I guess Hastings is gonski

I don't think you can massively front load contracts or manipulate things as you once could. And I actually think the backline stingaz posted looks lethal. All big strong and fast runners with Gordon organising.

[2026]

Mitchell is a constant threat in the good ball zone.

He will wreak havoc at left centre.
