Inglis will command 1 mil alone. Tamou 400k. Farah would be about the same if not 450k. That's a lot of money right there on top of trying to retain Carney also. His contract won't stay on 300k after next year.

Tupou (released), Pomeroy (needs to go) , Morris (retire), Ross (retire) also the 800k increase in the cap. I don't see why we can sign at least 1-2 top players for next 2014.

You lose four you sign four. Ross is on 65k and we will have to spend at least 250k to replace him.

Yeah you are right. My figures were being generous. But still to the same point. We could no way get those 3 players and still keep our top players here.

Agreed mate I said the same thing. Also don't see the point in getting rid of three players as suggested just to sign one player

I prefer your plan Bs all are on the rise showing improvement and play good consistent footy and thats what wins premierships

We should be in the market next season for a prop to replace Ross, a Hooker to replace Morris/De Gois/Robson and a solid back that is an improvment on our currnet stock.

Prop:
Plan A: James Tamou
Plan B: Aiden Tolman

Hooker:
Plan A: Robbie Farah
Plan B: Nathan Peats

Back:
Plan A: Greg Inglis
Plan B: Kane Linnett

Hopefully we are able to sign atleast one plan A, which would mean either Inglis, Farrah or Jame Tamou, i doubt we would be lucky enough to get 2 Plan A's but anything is possible.
out of the list i would chose.
Greg Inglis
Nathan Peats
Aiden Tolman
All players are currently off contract next season.

I don't get all the love for Peats. To me he's just a lock forward that can play hooker. He can run from dummy half and defend, but I'd rather a genuine attacking hooker with a bit of a kicking game.

If we were to lose carney (think parra will have a crack at him) then we need to sign benji
And I think with the players we have and what is happening in tiger land it wouldn't be that hard

Peats is a good player but there's no need for him with lichaa here. Peachey would do the same sort of thing as peats.

Id still focus on keeping carney before we even had to think about that

Agreed sharkyboy... I think Benji can disrupt a side too much tbh I think he is part of the reason tigers have been so unsuccessful

I think another 2-3 back rowers and we will be set for the premiership

I don't think we need him that much tbh. If we can pull off the KFFL signing that will be more than enough. He went toe to toe with him in the tryscoring category last year and is much younger.

The positions we should look at are:
prop, to take over from rossy
halfback, if we can grab a top one
centre

We should exchange Carney, M. Gordon, J. Wright, Mills, Robson, Townsend, De Gois, Pomeroy and Gardner for G. Stewart, Whatbro, Hoffman and Taylor.
