Gutherson in the centres would be good if we dont get cobbo 

Sure we already have one old bloke with busted knees in the centres, why not a matching pair?

 

Gutho has still got plenty left

 

Clearly our spoonbowl opponents disagree (as do I).

 

I wouldn't play him fullback 

 

I don’t think his knees will heal due to a positional change

 

parramatta are moving him as they have the young bloke from Penrith heading there way. His knees are not that bad, he is a good player still and an upgrade to our backline at centre. 

some on here would prefer we sign Montoya...

Faalogo might be on his way.out.of Melbourne if storm sign Papenhuyzen. He might even be a good purchase but he would want to play fullback so doubt he would come here. If he was keen could Bula transition to centre? 

Cobbo could be the other option that would add much needed class to our backline, the price is the problem however

Would hope Richo can get something done to strengthen that backline.

None of those options fill me with excitement. We have Turuva and Skelton coming in (as well as Montoya??), Bird, Doueihi and Olam as immediate centre options. I wouldn’t be rushing any backline purchases right now.

Olam how will he go post surgery ? 

Douhie no thanks his defence is awful 

Bird some are saying too slow for centre ? defensively sound however. 

we do have young makasini and large however a year or 2 away for both in nrl you would think

turuva and skelton on the wings are pretty good signings

Our forward pack is our biggest issue. It’s atrocious.

Correct. And probably the area we will struggle to free up space. I don’t see a lot of demand for the likes of Klemmer, Twal etc

Gutherson is a cat. It’s a no from me. Don’t need actors who pretend they a league players.

I can't stand him. The carry-on for penalties and that stupid "Gutherino" dance annoy me so much.

I think we might end up with RCG and Hetherington that would solve some of out pack issues

Serious question Jedi, who do you think we will be getting for next year? New signings?

I think RCG a very good chance

I think from the Warriors Ali Leiataua  for 2026 season

thought we would get Kobe hetherington but other forum seems to think he is going to Parramatta so not sure we get him 

left field selection maybe Valynce te whare now dolphins are not keeping him

Why do you think we will get RCG?

@avocadoontoast The forwards are the issue no doubt still short of a heavy duty prop, signing a two hit up wonder is not going to help that much the offence should be pretty competitive .

I know he’s green but I wonder if they feel Johannson is going to be a key part of the pack?

think it is either us or the dogs and think we have more appeal than the dogs.
