... I was maybe a bit harsh. Still, I'd prefer us to sign someone without the baggage.
So we shouldn't have signed Nicho? Ronnie? Toby? Perhaps you mean a particular type of baggage?

Scott Sorrenson set to sign with the knights. Panthers are going all out for Wilton now. Really hope he stays with us. We need him.

Fitzgibbon, Frizell, Jones and Jack Johns all of contract so I guess not a bad shout. Presumably they keep Fitz due to sponsor ties but all others could get chopped - Brodie Jones hasn’t done as much this year as I thought he might, guess he just looks good filling in at centre against us…

The last one. Always a subjective opinion anyway. We've got about 10 of them in our juniors.
Wasn't trying to gotcha. Just curious who to liken him to. Good to hear we've got a few coming through ourselves.

Man I wish we went after Sorro. Needs some experience on that left edge.

@stormshark live in Melbourne and watches the Storm’s SG Ball and Flegg. I interpreted that post as him saying that Ferguson is the best player he’s seen in those comps over the last 4 years.

He can clarify, but I don’t think he was professing to be an expert on all of the junior talent running around. He just rates that player.

I agree but they’re very confident of being able to sign him apparently. Him and Cleary would be ****ing dangerous playing together.
Well, there's an official denial now so I'm giving it legs based on the fact all CEO's and football managers are lying prix.

Ethan is from Newcastle's 2023 SG Ball team and hails from Taree so he wouldn't have played much in Melbourne Burgo. He's played 2022 and 2023 in SG ball and in 2020 and 2021 Knights Matty Cup team and none of those teams played in Melbourne.

Especially not on the wing ;)

He means Ikuvalu’s spot in the top 30 that has been freed up.
True but my point is the ikavalu money and top 30 spot is free. Probably need more money though. Also I think Avelleiro can play edge too can’t he? That’s an area we’re short.
But wouldn't that mean we have to have him by the first Monday in August? That's when club's top 30s have to be finalised isn't it?

Are dogs looking to release him? If so he'd be an OK placeholder as surely the Dogs would have to kick the can a bit

Does anyone know how many spots we have free? I think we’re sitting at 28/30? Can anyone clarify this please.
