man this feels exactly like when we signed Carney - some people super confident he's with us, media hardly mentioning us, last minute freak out sessions thinking he's not coming anymore etc.

I just want it sorted, if he signs with us then **** yeah !! We'll have a genuine premiership window. If he doesn't then that sucks but we'll move on, and it shows how far we've come as a club to be serious contenders for such a player after the ASADA crap.

Not a bad summarization there Tiger.

What’s the contingency plan – go hard for Hodkinson? Doubt he’d leave Dessy though.

In the end I'm thinking Sandow is the only genuine half back left on the market ?

Dunno about that, he might not be having the love towards Dessy as much as you think, Dessy was trying to get DCE as well.

Also sounds like the Benji saga, and we saw how that worked out for us

I'll be stoked if we get him, but he will be another player I hated before putting on our jersey, a la Ennis, Gibbs and Kimmorly.

If we don't get him though, part of me will be stoked. Sure he is a great player but he has always come across as a princess, and this whole fiasco hasn't helped his reputation in my mind.

If Foran does go to Parra that frees up quite a bit of cap space for them to go after Sezer as a replacement. If we don't land DCE I'm not sure what we end up with for 2016.
