I'm glad Prior gets a good overseas gig. He's earned it.

On the flip side he's best his well past it and he was way off what we need from a prop this year.

we arent linked with matterson

arrow is for 2021

I must have imagined a whole random conversation about Matterson on here then.

I just said Friz would be good I didn't say we should get him, or we could get him.
These days "linked with" via media rumour is hardly much more evidence of something happening that me just saying it would be good anyway.

It depends what Bomber wants from Segy, or Lichaa or who ever.

- If he plans to play Brailey for 80, maybe Magoulias fills in for 5-10 mins here or there then you just get Lichaa. He will be cheap and hungry to perform for a better deal at another club
- If he plans to put a second hooker on the bench then you get Segy, imo this is unlikely based on him not having both the Brailey's the last half of the season. For NSW cup I don't think Segy will put much effort in and just phone it in like he was the beginning of the year. Plus I assume he'd cost more than Lichaa

I honestly see Magoulias getting a bench spot and being a middle forward/hooker option.

My impression of Billy is that he probably wouldn't have the outside back utility of Capewell? Not sure if he'd be able to adequately cover the centres for instance?

Yeah that's the impression I have as well. I'd probably play Nikora there before Billy, as bad as his defence can be.

All good points , the ideal bench could be 2 props , Billy M and Capewell if he hangs around for a year .

Covers all bases including HIA.

Then stick Licha in the Jets # 9 in case of an injury to Brailey ..

So if Capewell, Prior and Bukuya all go, which is looking entirely possible, are we potentially looking at a bench of Magoulias, Rudolph, Wilton/Sorenson and Hamlin-Uele for 2020? Or have I missed somebody? That’s all assuming we don’t sign a cheapish forward.
