we are going hard for addin fonua blake, also looking for any winger looking to get out of their club

He would be huge for us. Be exactly what we need off the bench to combat some of the other clubs big men. Big fan of Fonua Blake.

With so many coaches moving around you'd think they'll be a few players moving around too - either not being part of that coaches gameplan, too expensive etc.

I can smell a Flanno bargain.

Great when he's on but is he consistent enough to be paid 7 figures?

I'm not sure.

No way. Tremendous talent but doesn't show it enough or produce it when its most needed. I don't know if he's ever pulled a game out of the fire. Invisible when the going gets tough.

I can remember multiple games he almost single-handedly won against us. He's played his most consistent footy alongside organiser-type 5/8s like Maloney and Green, which makes me think he's better suited to 6 like he played for NZ this year. Pair him with an organisational 7 and watch out.

If Moylan's a $900,000 five-eighth, I don't see why Johnson can't be a $1,000,000 one.

If Val goes I’d sign Johnson as a 6, leave Chad at 7 and move Moylan to Fullback... Johnson would be unstoppable behind the Sharks pack

You’d give him Vals money for sure too.
Although the goal would be to keep Val.
i think Johnson signing on as the star 6 would offer more for the team.

Or... keep Val and swap Moylan for Johnson - let Flanno Jnr and Chad fight for the 7.

Johnson and Val would be awesome.

Well yeah but that would be harder to achieve.

SJ is a better half than Moylan and Val is a better fullback than Moylan so I would be all for it, but it sounds unrealistic.

Johnson and Chad played together at warriors. Thought that was the best year of footy Chad played.
