In your head, rent free
Listing Trindall as 18th man is worse than sending him back to play for the Jets IMHO.

Id prefer the Order to be (in order)

1. 80 min game time (in NRL covering a halves injury otherwise with the Jets if no halves injured)
2. Utility in NRL but only as last resort and we have a lot of injuries other than in the halves
3. NRL 18th man - would rather see him get some game time instead of potential not get anything
yeh leave tracey as 18th man, send trindall to the jets

There are posters on this forum that want to offer every 2nd player a million dollar contract too
I personally would like to see Stonestreet offered the sort of money that would allow him to upgrade to Golden Calacatta

dont tell them he re-signed in january, they will have a conniption
Be interesting what we've communicated to him regarding a pathway to NRL.

We have Moylan until the end of 2024.

If a club comes knocking soon with an offer including guaranteed starting role I wonder if he agitated for a release?

They can make us an offer

While Trindall is definitely currently better than Atkinson, Puru, Tracey and Dykes come next year for a good enough trade offer I could imagine a world in which he is expendable.

klemmer
pap
bateman
api
naden
Naden is just faster, lazier Ramien isn't he.
Just as dumb, now just as skinny too.

Ipap would be a no brainer, find a way to make him fit into side. Api but he is their captain, even they couldn't possibly.
Could see Klemmer coming good with us, but the slow PTB is a concern and I also think we are talking about next year at the earliest so he won't be any faster.

Maybe it is just one of their most promising juniors (and they can pay their cap hit too).
Matamua looked good in trials, was too keen with the offloads was only negative. He started at prop with Bradbury.

Not ideal but him in the 17 is a better Sharks NRL side. Probably has to be a middle though.

Ok, let me rephrase
Who would we take that they would also give up?
The Tigers ain’t giving any of those blokes away (maybe Naden)
If they are in the market for any 7 they can get their hands on come off season they probably went bad enough I could see any of those top 3 names willing, and perhaps looking, to leave. Naden for a halfback would be an easy move for them too.

What I mentioned with an up and comer probably more realistic though, especially if Trindall is agitating for it.
