      We'll be fine.

      O'sullivan, Oldfield, Tupou, RTS, Wells, Henry & Rokolati can all cover wing spots.

      Henry, SKD, Sheck, Oldfield & Jones/SBW/Aubusson/Symonds can cover centre if we get desperate.

      I'm sure the club could pick up a good youngster who's on the outer at their current club if they really feel it's necessary but there's already enough raw talent at the club. I thought the club missed a chance when the Tigers were offering Ayshford around and then a few months later when the Eels started offering Tonga around. Both would've added some much needed experience.

          Unlikely as his contract is heavily topped up by the ARU so I expect they will want him to be available for the Wobblies.

              George Jennings, Tim Lafai, Kyle Feldt would be good replacements. SBW can cover centres but I hope they find a replacement. If the club wants to challenge for a top 8 spot we cant just fill in gaps with blokes like Adam Henry

                I'd call those players "filling in the gaps" before Henry.

                  Exactly, the club doesn't need to look long term in this instance.

                  Hell convince Colin Best to play on one more year or get Phil Graham back.

                    So what do you think of this talk that we are trying to sign Jennings?

                      Its plausible. Gus really isn't happy about the type of money he's taking up. Masoe and Leilua both signed contracts whilst in demand they would have been on decent coin. If I had to hazard a guess factoring in the cap rise we'd be somewhere between 1-1.2m under the salary cap... I wouldn't rule out anything.

                      As a player I think he's a great club player and very effective due to his physical abilities - speed, acceleration & agility. Other than that I think his general skills are pretty poor and whilst he's and improved defender he's still suspect. We'd be paying 500k for a 300k player. I'd much rather just sign a short term fix and continue to develop Moga who has shown signs of ability to go with Hus freakish athleticism.

                        Agree he isn't worth $500K but how much of his salary might Penrith be willing to pay for us just to get rid of him. Gus has been trying to offload him for some time now. he can't be happy there you would imagine.

                          SBW may play centre, with the abundance of backrowers and the imposing sight of a fit and healthy Cherro

                              Henry is not and never will be NRL standard. Tim Lafai has class written all over him.
