Friz will stay a shark. Plans to extend his contract already.
We've made what 7 pretty good signings so far this year. Now given our previous 24 months (and a dismal start to 2011, we've done real well to get who we've gotten) I think 1 thing drawing them in is Gallen, I think people are noticing what he is doing and how much of it he is doing, and people can see brighter futures with him.
yeah the nuffy is probably holding us back !! haha
Hard to gauge how the loss of Douglas will affect us given we haven't experienced a Douglas-less Sharks since he made grade.

Whist losing Dougie and Kade is a big loss, I must say i think I am happier with our whole prop rotation for next year than I am this year.
id put johnny mannah into start, and id tell him he has 60 minutes to show why he should be a shark next year, because with green now coming, we have awesome depth next year. gibbs, fifita(massively excited by his signing, could be a super star.), tafua, green, vave, clayton, cordoba(is he signed for next year?), and taggers, i don't know if we need him. he might stand up against dragons and have a blinder.
I'm sure that if the sharks wanted to keep mannah he would of been re-signed before we signed green or taufua
The Sharks want to keep Johnny, but we simply have no room for him next year in the cap. I think Vave's heading down the same path. Parra would probably grab Johnny.
What gives you that idea?
We've made a competitive offer to Mannah.
