Not by Bort though, I'm sure
You can go find out if you want

Guys, my comment was made on the assumption that Miller - Bradbury was not a straight swap. Which was wrong, and considering Miller's stellar showing at Newcastle, a trade we've already got the best of.
I won't mind if Tracey leaves for greener pastures and we get something of value in return. But unless we get that elusive prop (starter or bench) with a bit of mongrel, I think he's more valuable to us in the squad.

Could we turn Tracey into a “bit of a mongrel” prop?

Maybe we get him on Brailey’s diet and Williams and Hunts weights program!!

It’s really heating up now. Hearing so many things atm. But apparently the deal the dogs are set to offer him is for this season.

Moylan and Tracey gone makes me think we’re freeing up cash for a big name player.

Moylan 350k and Tracey 400k plus apparently we’re under the cap now by 375k.

AFB maybe ? Though warriors willing to let him, so he comes to us, might be tricky; since we haven’t been good terms with them with toby, and a few others

Only one that comes to mind if Tony. Who else was there?

We gave them Chad when they needed a half. Metcalf deal was smooth. Don’t think there’s any real bad blood between our two clubs? Unless I’m forgetting some things that occurred?

AFB would be exactly what the doctor ordered
BUT if not could RFM convert himself into a hard running Mongrel Prop ?
He has height and if he transformed from 110lg to 118kg of muscle could he ?

Maybe take a punt on RFM for a year but he'd want 2 or 3. He's 30 and has had injuries.

RFM 2023 stats OK playing discgruntled, Add 6kg and a whole new attitude , who knows.

Maybe 2 and 3rd in clubs favour?
I would like to see these 2 mobile props in the 17 IF RFM put on 5-6 kg
Below disgruntled RFM 2023 stats.

AFB ain’t moving this year by the sound of things
Certainly not just because we can afford him

Straight swap with RFM and tell the Dogs to cover at least half of his salary since we're actually doing them a big favor.
Less of a straight swap then with the extra from their end haha
But yeah they are definitely more in the position of need
