Re: Ricky Leutele ... IMO the Titans would need to let someone go. You would have to assume that Don, Gordon and Hurrell have 3 spots locked up and they have a lot of guys on their books who play in the 3/4 (Lee, Elliot, Roberts-Davis, Olive, Copley, Sami, Cooper). Leutele makes the team over those guys, but you would think one or more of those blokes would be a little annoyed with the idea of losing out on the opportunity to compete for a spot.

As far as a swap goes, a perfect situation for the Sharks would be pry Lawton away (he's a 5/8 who has been playing hooker off the bench) but he's a local kid who just re-signed so that's highly unlikely. Most likely they just release one of those depth 3/4 guys to the Sharks or to someone else.

Any info on any proposed candidates for football club CEO position? That’s if there is going to be a football club CEO , not just as “manager of football operations “

Yeah Ricky would fit under their cap easily.

For footy reasons not cap reasons. If the Titans sign Leutele you can bet at least one of those players calls his manager and asks him to look around to a team where he might play some first grade this year.

Lee would have been told he was a shoe in when signing. Roberts-Davis was an NYC gun who got a taste last year. Copley would consider himself a first grader.

Bit like a 10 year old Tongan that eats a cow for dinner every night playing against skinny white kids half his weight.
