Jaws
Anyone who doesn't think we don't need one more Big Bopper next yr , should have a look how the Rorters are going now Lodge has been added. They Took the head off the snake in NAS, and relentlessly Powered home with 3/4 Front rowers.

That first sentence was a little confusing… but I get your point.
Don’t you think the below is enough middles:
Props
Toby
Hunt
BHU
Kaufusi
Williams
Hazelton
Jesse
Lock
Finucane
McInnis
Wade (moving in to cover during games)
That to me is plenty. Any more than that and I think we’d be spending too much of our cap on the middle.

Im still hoping Wade isnt re-signed.
Offers nothing except neutalising Talakai and Mulitalo
Have to win a Premiership so he can retire then
That's plenty of numbers.
We will come up short because none of them exude violence like JWH.
He is scary and that violence within rules wins games and intimidates opponent's.
We saw Hunt isn't afraid to get violent in preseason with no small opponent in TPH. I'm sure while BHU doesn't go looking he'd also take the challenge on. Finucane and McInnes might not engage but they won't shy away from their workload just because someone else want's to get feisty.
Yeah we lack a maniac but multiple teams (Dragons and I think it was Cowboys) have said we have the toughest forward pack to face.
We saw with JWH it's just as likely to backfire as it is to gain yourself anything.

Would you be happy with half a mongrel?

Great White
No BHU and no Finucane really stuffed us. It is fair to say Fifita and Hunt got better as the season went on as well though

Would happily release either TPJ or Thompson to yous, would go very well in your system.
Not our best stretch but still finished second.
Also had Williams out
Most clubs feel the impact of two starting middles and benchie out
TPJ is a ****ing plodder. Would gladly take Thompson though if you guys chipped in 350k of his salary.
Happy to take Burton off your hands too.

I just feel the additional experienced front rower in McLean/Klemmee makes us stronger going into 2023

It does, but it would come at the cost of weakening another area as we wouldn’t be able to spend the money on the depth there, or we would be able to keep our current back 5.
I get that JWH seems all scary and angry on the field, but Penrith is doing fine with JFH and Leota and both of them are tough without carrying on like cranky little bitch (JWH).
Kaufusi is young, but he has the potential to grow into an enforcer. He’s a big lad.
